How Juventus could line up against Sassuolo

Sports Mole looks at how Juventus could line up in Sunday's Serie A clash with Sassuolo.

Juventus will switch their attention back to Serie A this weekend as they prepare to host Sassuolo.

The Old Lady secured their spot in the knockout rounds of the Champions League as Group D winners with a 1-0 win over Atletico Madrid on Tuesday night.

Maurizio Sarri's side have now won their last six matches in all competitions, including their last four in Serie A to remain top of the table despite the threat of Inter Milan.

Not since a 1-1 draw with Lecce on October 26 have Juve dropped league points, overcoming Genoa, Torino, AC Milan and Atalanta BC in their last four top-flight fixtures.

Here, Sports Mole looks at how the home side could line up in Turin.


POSS JUVE XI vs. SAS

Out: Douglas Costa (thigh), Giorgio Chiellini (knee)
Doubtful: Adrien Rabiot (groin), Alex Sandro (groin), Mattia Perin (shoulder)

Juve will definitely be without the services of Douglas Costa and Giorgio Chiellini as the pair recover from thigh and knee injuries respectively.

Adrien Rabiot and Alex Sandro could both return from injuries to feature on Sunday, although while the latter could get the nod at left-back, the former is expected to be named on the bench.

Cristiano Ronaldo played the full 90 minutes against Atletico during the week, and the Portugal international is again expected to start here despite concerns over a troublesome knee issue.

Sarri is expected to shuffle his pack from the European outing, though, with Federico Bernardeschi, Gonzalo Higuain and Sami Khedira all expected to be recalled.

Juan Cuadrado could also come in for Danilo at right-back, but Miralem Pjanic and Blaise Matuidi are both expected to keep their positions in the middle of the park.
