Federico Chiesa and Dusan Vlahovic start for the second time in a row in the Juventus attack in an away game against Monza who leave Lorenzo Colombo on the bench.

Serie A Week 14 starts on Friday with a meeting between Monza and Juventus at the U-Power Stadium.

It kicks off at 19:45 GMT and you can follow the build-up and action as it happens on the Football Italia LIVEBLOG.

Monza are without the injured Gianluca Caprari, Armando Izzo, Samuels Vignato, plus the suspended Papu Gomez. Surprisingly, Palladino has chosen a starting XI with no classic centre forwards leaving Dani Mota and Colombo on the bench and starting Patrick Ciurria, Andrea Colpani and Matteo Pessina in a front three.

Pablo Marì returns to the Monza’s line-up completing a three-man defence with Danilo D’Ambrosio and Luca Caldirola.

Juventus defender Danilo is available after spending over a month out of action with a muscle injury. His compatriot Alex Sandro returns to the starting XI, replacing Daniele Rugani.

Hans Nicolussi Caviglia starts his second consecutive game in the middle of the park, leaving the not-fully-fit Manuel Locatelli initially on the bench. Chiesa and Vlahovic start up front for the Old Lady.
