Multiple reports in Italy suggest Daniele Rugani will replace Gleison Bremer against Maccabi, with Juan Cuadrado starting in place of Filip Kostic.

The Bianconeri are desperate for the three points in Israel, as they need a victory to keep their qualification hopes alive.

Sky Sport Italia and Romeo Agresti report that Allegri could make some late and somehow surprising line-up changes, starting both Juan Cuadrado and Daniele Rugani.

If the reports are accurate, Rugani will replace Bremer in central defence, while Cuadrado will get the nod on the right flank in place of Filip Kostic.

Bremer has played each Juventus game so far, collecting 1,075 minutes across 12 appearances, so Allegri may want to rest him ahead of next week’s derby della Mole against Torino.

Cuadrado started against Milan on Saturday but was replaced during the break.

The kick-off is at 17.45 UK time, so the official starting line-ups will be announced in circa 30 minutes.

Juventus’ potential line-up against Maccabi (4-4-2) Szczesny; Danilo, Rugani, Bonucci, Alex Sandro; Cuadrado, Paredes, Rabiot, McKennie; Di Maria, Vlahovic.
