Juventus defender Danilo has sustained a toe injury and is expected to start on the bench against Atalanta.

Danilo was supposed to start against La Dea today, but a toe injury is likely to keep him on the sidelines, Football Italia understands.

The Brazilian defender is Andrea Pirlo’s most used player this season, with 3.282 minutes played across all competitions.

Juan Cuadrado will then start on the right, with Weston McKennie deployed as a right-winger in Juventus’ 4-4-2 formation.
