Ronaldo rested for Genoa clash

With his job done, and very succesfully so, in the Champions League thanks to his hat-trick against Atletico Madrid, Cristiano Ronaldo is set to be rested for Sunday's clash between Juventus and Genoa. 

The forward has a very busy fixture schedule in the coming weeks, with games in Serie A, the Champions League and even international matches to come, and will be grateful for the chance to recover ahead of this tricky period. It's the second consecutive match in Serie A that Ronaldo has been rested for, with the Portuguese also rested for the recent clash with Udinese. 

Allegri is conscious of the impact Ronaldo can have in the Champions League, and with the domestic league all but wrapped up, will focus on using the striker in these big European matches.

Here we have the complete Juventus squad list for the game against Genoa:

Szczesny, Perin, Pinsoglio, Chiellini, Cáceres, Alex Sandro, Bonucci, Cancelo, Rugani, Spinazzola, Pjanic, Matuidi, Emre Can, Bentancur, Caviglia, Dybala, Mandzukic, Kean, Bernardeschi, Moreno.
