Andre Pirlo, the Juventus manager, says his charges need to change their mindset following the champions' shock defeat to Benevento. 
 
"What we needed was to stay calm and make better use of the flanks, but we made a lot of mistakes," Pirlo said. 
 
"When the result is hanging in the balance, panic can start to set in and that wasn't the attitude required. We also needed a little extra desire to get the result, because there was a real opportunity for us to close the gap in the league. 
 
"We have to change our mindset: we wear a jersey of huge importance, which must always be honoured."
 
"Our attitude has to be different in games like this.”
 
The last meeting between Torino and Juventus in a league game was on 5 December 2020.
 
The Old Lady ran out 2-1 winners over the Maroons in a match which was played at the Allianz Stadium.
