ROME, Jan 9 (Reuters) - Juventus coach Andrea Pirlo insists the defending Serie A champions shouldn't be considered favourites to retain the league title they have clinched for the last nine years, despite ending AC Milan's unbeaten run. But the 41-year-old underlined that beating Sassuolo in their next game on Sunday is every bit as important as his side's victory over Milan. "Whoever is top is always the team to beat, at the moment that's Milan," Pirlo told a media conference. "It was a great and important victory but if we don't win tomorrow, it will have been for nothing." Sassuolo are enjoying a superb season and travel to Turin one point behind Juventus as they chase a surprise European spot.
