Paolo Montero unleashes the Juventus trident on Monza with Kenan Yildiz, Arek Milik and Federico Chiesa, plus Nicolò Fagioli in midfield.

It kicks off at the Allianz Juventus Stadium in Turin at 17.00 UK time (16.00 GMT).

You can follow all the build-up and action as it happens from this game and MilanSalernitana on the LIVEBLOG.

The Bianconeri sacked Max Allegri last week, just days after winning the Coppa Italia, and interim manager Montero made his debut with a thrilling comeback from 3-0 down to hold Bologna.

As the Rossoblu lost 2-0 to Genoa last night, this is a huge opportunity for Juve to lock down third place, pending the remaining two Atalanta results.

Andrea Cambiaso is suspended, with Adrien Rabiot and Mattia De Sciglio injured, so Fagioli gets his first start after the return from an eight-month ban for gambling.

Fagioli has unexpectedly been included in Luciano Spalletti’s long-list for EURO 2024.

Above all, Montero unleashes the 3-4-3 formation that Allegri resisted, with Milik flanked by Chiesa and Yildiz.

Monza make the trip without Patrick Ciurria, Daniel Maldini and Andrea Carboni, in what is expected to be Raffaele Palladino’s final game in charge.

Regardless of other results, they will finish the season in 12th place.

It is an odd situation for Michele Di Gregorio, who is reportedly on the verge of a €20m move to Juventus.
