📋 Team News: Torino

Koffi Djidji (muscular problems), Gvidas Gineitis (Knee injury), Pietro Pellegri (unknown injury) and Perr Schuurs (Cruciate ligament injury) will be missing for Torino gaffer Ivan Jurić.

It looks as if Il Toro should employ a 3-4-1-2 system, beginning the first half with V. Milinkovic-Savic, Adrien Tameze, A. Buongiorno, Ricardo Rodriguez, Raoul Bellanova, Mergim Vojvoda, Karol Linetty, Samuele Ricci, Nikola Vlasic, Antonio Sanabria and Duvan Zapata.

ℹ️ Team News: Juventus

Thanks to a mainly full-strength group, there is just a single fitness issue for the Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri to be concerned with. Arkadiusz Milik (Adductor injury) won’t be in action.

There’s a good chance that Juve seem likely to begin the game with a 3-5-2 formation, settling for Wojciech Szczesny, Federico Gatti, Gleison Bremer, Danilo, Andrea Cambiaso, Weston McKennie, Manuel Locatelli, Adrien Rabiot, Filip Kostic, Dusan Vlahovic and Federico Chiesa.

🔮 Prediction

We’re inclined to think that Torino might have a difficult job to score goals against this Juventus side who we reckon should score & stay on top.

We therefore see a 0-1 winning margin for Juventus after 90 minutes.
