With his squad plagued by several injuries, Juventus coach Thiago Motta will try to make a virtue of necessity and is likely to give Douglas Luiz his second start of the season as the Bianconeri host Lazio.

It kicks off at 20.45 CET (18.45 GMT) at the Allianz Stadium in Turin.

Following a rough start, the Brazilian midfielder should get a chance to redeem himself by replacing the injured Theun Koopmeiners in midfield. Nicolò Fagioli will be on the bench as he only partially recovered from a slight injury, meaning Manuel Locatelli and Kephren Thuram will complete the central department, as reported by Sky Sport Italia.

Andrea Cambiaso will be moved forward and play as an offensive right winger to take the place of the suspended Francisco Conceição, with Juan Cabal replacing him as a left-back. Kenan Yildiz and Dusan Vlahovic will also start in attack.

Mateo Guendouzi has reportedly recovered from injury and should start in midfield for Lazio, while Adam Marusic is expected to replace Manuel Lazzari, who is injured.
