Juventus will be without Mario Mandzukic for Wednesday evening's Champions League tie against Tottenham Hotspur as the injured forward is not part of their 21-man travelling party.
Mandzukic has been struggling with a thigh problem of late and will sit out the second-leg tie, which remains delicately poised at 2-2 heading into the Wembley showdown.
The Bianconeri are boosted by the apparent return to fitness of Gonzalo Higuain, however, with the Argentina international taking part in training on Tuesday after travelling with the rest of his teammates to London.
Elsewhere, Blaise Matuidi is also a part of the extended 21-man squad list, having sat out the reverse fixture through injury, and Paulo Dybala is among the attackers following his own recent return to fitness.

Juventus are on a seven-match unbeaten run against Premier League opposition, winning three in a row prior to the draw with Spurs in Turin three weeks ago.
