Juve need good performance and luck to reach Coppa Italia final - Allegri

Juventus must play well and have a bit of luck to win their Coppa Italia semi-final second leg at Inter Milan on Wednesday after a 1-1 draw in Turin, said manager Massimiliano Allegri.

In last season's final, Juve lost 4-2 to Inter after extra time and will be determined to make amends.

"Tomorrow must be a calm game, I hope everything goes smoothly because, in the end it’s a game of football."

In an update on injuries, the coach said midfielder Paul Pogba would be available against Inter, but striker Moise Kean was sidelined due to muscular problems.

"Kean is out for sure, we hope to have him back in about ten days. Between (Arkadiusz) Milik, (Federico) Chiesa and (Angel) Di Maria tomorrow I’ll decide whether all three can play or just two, because I also need substitutions."

"In the defence I’ll decide tomorrow, Mattia Perin will play for sure. Today (striker Dusan) Vlahovic sprained his ankle in training, so we’ll evaluate him in the morning, but he’s unlikely to be there tomorrow."

They have also reached the Europa League semi-finals where they face record six-time winners Sevilla.

Allegri shrugged off questions about his future, saying he was focused on
