Serie A: Juventus vs. Como – probable line-ups, where to watch on TV
Juventus are short of options in defence for a home Serie A match against Como, while Martin Baturina is expected to replace Nico Paz as an attacking midfielder for the Azzurri.
It kicks off at 15:00 CET (14:00 GMT) at the Allianz Stadium in Turin.
Pierre Kalulu is suspended after the FIGC rejected Juventus’ request to lift his ban; Gleison Bremer and Emil Holm are injured, as are Dusan Vlahovic and Arkadiusz Milik.
Jonathan David has not trained with the team this week due to an injury, but will be tested at Continassa this morning and will be part of the Old Lady’s squad list, Spalletti has said.
If David is not fit to start, Kenan Yildiz will likely play as a false nine, as reported by Sky and other Italian media.
Spalletti is expected to switch to a three-man defence with Federico Gatti, Lloyd Kelly and Teun Koopmeiners at the back.
Como have travelled to Turin without the suspended Nico Paz, the injured Edoardo Goldaniga, and Assane Diao.
Anastasios Douvikas will lead the Como attack with Baturina playing as an attacking midfielder in place of Nico Paz.
