Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon is a doubt for Sunday's trip to Livorno (1930 GMT) with a bad back. Midfielders Marco Marchionni and Hasan Salihamidzic are also struggling with knocks, the club's Web site (www.juventus.com) added.
Sergio Almiron has joined Monaco on loan but defender Jean-Alain Boumsong has yet to complete his move to Lyon as injury-hit Juve try to sign a replacement, with Aston Villa's Olof Mellberg now an immediate target rather than in June.
Tiago is close to a switch to Tottenham Hotspur but may still be included in Juve's match squad, Italian media said.

* New signing Rolando Bianchi is likely to be in Lazio's squad for Sunday's visit to Torino, the club he nearly joined from Manchester City before plumping for Rome.
Guglielmo Stendardo and Massimo Mutarelli are suspended for the 1400 kickoff but stuttering Lazio should still be buoyed by Thursday's 2-1 win over Fiorentina in the Coppa Italia quarter-final first leg.

* Leaders Inter travel to Udinese on Sunday and are expected to be without Cristian Chivu, Maicon and David Suazo as well as long-term injury victims Luis Figo, Walter Samuel and Olivier Dacourt.

* AC Milan keeper Dida is again set to be rested for Sunday's home game with Genoa (1400). Zeljko Kalac will deputise while Milan are likely to revert to a Brazilian strike force of Kaka, Pato and Ronaldo after Wednesday's 2-1 loss at Atalanta.

* AS Roma striker Francesco Totti, who has missed the last two games with flu, hopes to be fit to face Palermo on Saturday but midfielder Daniele De Rossi is suspended and defender Juan is injured.

* Palermo, who have dropped to ninth, have seven players facing a ban if they pick up another booking but under-pressure coach Francesco Guidolin is unlikely to weaken his side.
