Leonardo Bonucci is expected to start on the bench in the Turin Derby, while Ivan Juric will look to Josip Brekalo and Antonio Sanabria.

Juventus and Torino meet at the Stadio Grande Torino at 17.00 UK time.

It’s the first time in 49 years that the Turin Derby is played with the two clubs on even points.

Leonardo Bonucci is expected to start on the bench with Giorgio Chiellini and Matthijs de Ligt at centre-back.

Alvaro Morata and Paulo Dybala are injured, so Federico Chiesa and Moise Kean will start up front.

Torino’s Koffi Djidji is suspended, so new signing David Zima could start his second game in Serie A.

During his post-match press conference, Ivan Juric confirmed that both Andrea Belotti and Simone Zaza are not available.

Therefore, Josip Brekalo will partner Antonio Sanabria in the Granata’s attack.

Torino-Juventus, probable line-ups

Torino: Milinkovic-Savic; Zima, Bremer, Rodriguez; Singo, Lukic, Pobega, Aina; Linetty, Brekalo; Sanabria.

Juventus: Szczesny; Danilo, De Ligt, Chiellini, Alex Sandro; Bentancur, Locatelli, Rabiot; Bernardeschi; Chiesa, Kean.
