Absent since January 6th with a hamstring problem, Paulo Dybala is back fit for Juventus to face Torino and give them a welcome boost as they look to chase down Napoli and make it past Tottenham in the Champions League.

Juventus have a derby match away at Torino to contend with on Sunday, and Dybala is in the mix to play. He has trained this week and is in the squad called up to play their cross-city rivals.

Alex Sandro has welcomed the news. "'Having Paulo back is very important and means we can raise our level of quality that much more," he said to the club's official website. 

"The draw with Tottenham was not a negative result. We played a great game, as did our opponents. In the Champions League, the challenges are always difficult but we're going to London with the intention of winning and we know we can," he continued, talking about the result on Tuesday night. 

The 'Bianconeri' will be hoping that Dybala's return will make their task that much easier. The Argentine has scored 14 Serie A goals this season partnering Gonzalo Higuain up front.
