Former Juventus star Zinedine Zidane is backing his old club to win the Scudetto this season. "This season, the Bianconeri can win the championship," declared Zizou. "Claudio Ranieri has many excellent players and they are capable of competing for the championship."

Meanwhile, Juve skipper Alex del Piero remarked after their 1-1 draw against Fiorentina: "After Florence I think we can do it, even if we threw away two points. We just need to be more ruthless."
