Juventus coach Max Allegri says Paul Pogba will not start against Sampdoria today.

Allegri insists they will not be underestimating the relegation contenders.

He said, On the surface it looks easy, but Sampdoria's recent results can be deceiving, they have always lost by a narrow margin.

Tomorrow is a very important match for the league table, for the first time we can go second by going three points above Inter."

He was asked about midfielder Pogba, who did not join the squad for the Freiburg win after arriving late to a team meeting.

Pogba is available, it's not that he was late and didn't play on Thursday so he'll stay out (of the XI)," said Allegri. "I don't know the starting lineup yet, but two will certainly play, there is the return of (Mattia) Perin and then the striker, (Dusan) Vlahovic."
