Italy defender Barzagli has not played since his country's final World Cup game against Uruguay last June due to a troublesome heel problem.
The 33-year-old underwent surgery on the injury in July, before suffering a setback in his recovery when a stress fracture was discovered three months later.
Speaking at his pre-match media briefing on Saturday, Juve boss Massimiliano Allegri said: "Andrea Barzagli will be in my squad.
"He's still a while away from peak condition, but is coming on well."
Allegri also confirmed that playmaker Andrea Pirlo has returned to training after suffering a bout of flu.
The 35-year-old is to be monitored on Saturday before Allegri decides whether to select him against Chievo.
