Samuel Iling Junior is expected to start for Juventus against Napoli tonight, reports Romeo Agresti.

The English winger, a Chelsea academy product, will likely start for the Old Lady in tonight’s big game against Napoli at the Stadio Maradona.

Goal.com’s Romeo Agresti says on X, formerly Twitter, that the 20-year-old will start as a left wing-back in a 3-5-2 formation.

Iling Junior has made 14 Serie A appearances with Juventus this season but has never started a league game in 2023-24. The ex-Chelsea talent has one goal and two assists this term.

It is confirmed that Carlos Alcaraz will replace the injured Weston McKennie in central midfield, while Fabio Miretti will replace Adrien Rabiot, who is also injured.

Federico Chiesa and Dusan Vlahovic will start up front. Juventus captain Danilo returns from an injury but will start on the bench making room for Gleison Bremer, Daniele Rugani and Federico Gatti in the Old Lady’s line-up.
