📰 Team News: Juventus

Arkadiusz Milik (muscular problems), Teun Koopmeiners (Achilles tendon irritation), Bremer (Cruciate ligament tear) and Juan Cabal (Cruciate ligament surgery) won’t be available for Juventus gaffer Igor Tudor.

In all likelihood, Juve could employ a 4-4-2 system for this one, handing starts to Michele Di Gregorio, Alberto Costa, Renato Veiga, Lloyd Kelly, Andrea Cambiaso, Nicolas Gonzalez, Manuel Locatelli, Weston McKennie, Timothy Weah, Kenan Yildiz and Randal Kolo Muani.

📋 Team News: Udinese

Due to a mostly healthy group of players, there is only the one fitness issue for the Udinese gaffer Kosta Runjaić to be concerned about. Isaak Touré (Cruciate ligament surgery) won’t be playing here.

We believe Bianconeri Friuliani appear most likely to begin the game with a 3-4-2-1 system, going with Maduka Okoye, Thomas Kristensen, Jaka Bijol, Oumar Solet, Rui Modesto, Sandi Lovric, Jesper Karlstroem, Hassane Kamara, Matteo Palma, Oier Zarraga and Keinan Davis.

🧠 Prediction

In our opinion, Juventus have it within them to get a lot of shots on goal and make them count.

At the same time, Udinese won’t find it easy to break down their defence but we do think that it’s more than likely that they will be scoring.

We’re therefore expecting to see a pretty comfortable 3-1 winning margin for Juventus after 90 minutes.
