Ciro Ferrara takes over Claudio Ranieri at Juve's helm for the last two matches.

Zero titles claimed their first big victim this season.

Juve have gone eight matches without winning one. They lost to Atalanta which jeopardized their automatic CL spot. They now need the maximum points from the last two matches. The decision to fire Ranieri was arrived at by consensus:

"We made the decision to sack Ranieri yesterday evening and once we informed the club leadership of our decision, we made Ferrara's arrival official. We know that sacking a manager is not our style and the last dismissal mid-season took place in 1969. However, for the last 3 years we have been in a different situation from previous seasons. Having to go through the Champions League preliminary round and ending seasons this way isn't like us either."
