A full-strength Juventus side know they are just a point away from clinching the Serie A title against a relegation-threatened Palermo outfit, but it would be premature for the Bianconeri to be popping the champagne just yet, though, as the visitors are in desperate need of the points.
Antonio Conte will continue to play his 3-5-1-1 formation with Claudio Marchisio playing in behind striker Mirko Vucinic which has brought the champions much joy in recent weeks, while it is the usual back three trio for the hosts.
Giuseppe Sannino's men have enjoyed a mini-revival as they hope to avoid the dreaded drop to Serie B, but there are concerns over in-form attacker Josip Ilicic who faces a race against time to be fit for the clash.
Defender Andrea Mantovani is unavailable while Michel Morganella is suspended.
DID YOU KNOW?
Juventus are just a point away from landing back-to-back Scudettos. They are 11 points clear of Napoli with four games to play.
The Bianconeri are on a seven-game winning run and have not conceded in over 270 minutes of Serie A football.
Antonio Conte's men have won their last three games against Sunday's visitors and have not conceded during this time.
Palermo are unbeaten in their last five matches with wins over Roma, Sampdoria and Inter included in that run. They sit in 17th place level with Genoa (18) on 32 points.
Attacker Josip Ilicic has scored five in his last five games for the Rosanero.
Striker Fabrizio Miccoli has netted six times in Serie A and is a former Juventus player.
Prediction
Juventus just need a point in this match to win the Scudetto, but in truth it would be surprising if they did not get all three. The Rosanero will be buoyed by the string of performances they have put together in recent weeks, but the Bianconeri will have too much for the visitors.
Editor's Prediction
Juventus 2-0 Palermo
