Kaio Jorge could start his first Serie A game this season, in a must-win game for Juventus against Bologna.

Sinisa Mihajlovic’s side lost the last two matches in a row and are without Jerdy Schouten and Kingsley.

The Rossoblu have lost the last ten Serie A games against the Bianconeri.

Juventus collected ten points in the last five games and Max Allegri could start the Brazilian starlet Kaio Jorge for the first time this season.

The Old Lady is short of options up front, with Paulo Dybala and Federico Chiesa on the treatment table.

Giorgio Chiellini, Danilo and Ramsey are also unavailable for the Bianconeri.

Manuel Locatelli and Dejan Kulusevski are likely to start on the bench.
