Angel Di Maria will likely start for Juventus on Saturday, while Udinese‘s Gerard Deulofeu is still out of action.

It kicks off at 17.00 GMT at the Allianz Stadium.

The Bianconeri will honour their legend Gianluca Vialli before the beginning of the game. The ex-striker died this morning in London, aged 58. A minute’s silence will be held before every Serie A match this weekend.

The Bianconeri must cope without Leonardo Bonucci, Mattia De Sciglio, Juan Cuadrado, Paul Pogba and Dusan Vlahovic. Gleison Bremer is not fully fit and is not expected to start also because he is on a yellow card and at risk of missing the next away game at Napoli.

Arek Milik is expected to start on the bench with Moise Kean getting the nod up front.

Juventus won ten of the last 13 games against Udinese in Serie A, always scoring in the process.

Udinese travel to Turin without Deulofeu and Adam Masina so Isaac Success and Beto will start up front.

The Zebrette have lost 65 games against Juventus in history, more than against any other team.

The Allianz Stadium will be sold out.
