"Thiago Silva and Yepes will return on Wednesday. Inzaghi hurt his calf this morning during training, so that's why he won't be playing tomorrow vs. Juventus. Van Bommel won't play tomorrow, because he still feels some pain after
the knock he got on his calf against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Malmö-FF-c39849.”
