Khedira to make first Juventus start

Juventus midfielder Sami Khedira has been named to make his first start for the club in their Champions League clash with Sevilla this evening.

The German international is one of four changes made by head coach Masimilliano Allegri following his side's 2-1 defeat by Napoli at the weekend, replacing Mario Lemina in midfield.

Andrea Barzagli will start in a three-man defence alongside Leonardo Bonucci and Giorgio Chiellini, while Juan Cuadrado and Patrice Evra will feature as wing-backs.

Alvaro Morata replaces Simone Zaza up front, and will partner Paulo Dybala in attack.

Visitors Sevilla make one change from the side that defeated Rayo 3-2 at the weekend, as Yevhen Konoplyanka replaces Renato Ibarra.

Kevin Gameiro is named to continue up front for the Europa League champions.
