Mattia De Sciglio (Biceps femoris muscle injury), Douglas Costa (Tear in the abductor muscle), Giorgio Chiellini (Calf Problems) and Sami Khedira (Tear in the abductor muscle) won’t be able to feature for Juventus gaffer Maurizio Sarri.

We are thinking that Juve will possibly employ a 4-3-3 formation this time, utilising Wojciech Szczesny, Alex Sandro, Daniele Rugani, Matthijs de Ligt, Danilo, Aaron Ramsey, Rodrigo Bentancur, Adrien Rabiot, Cristiano Ronaldo, Paulo Dybala and Federico Bernardeschi.

It seems to us that Sampdoria will need to be at their best to get a goal against a Juventus team who will likely set up a big win.

We are anticipating a 3-0 victory for Juventus at the end of the game.
