How Juventus could line up against Fiorentina

Sports Mole looks at how Juventus could line up in Saturday's Serie A clash with Fiorentina.

Juventus will welcome Fiorentina to Turin on Saturday night knowing that a win in front of their own supporters would seal an eighth straight Serie A title.

Indeed, the Old Lady are 17 points clear of second-placed Napoli with six games left and all three points this weekend would seal yet another championship.

Massimiliano Allegri's side will enter the match off the back of a hugely disappointing result, though, with a 2-1 loss to Ajax on Tuesday night seeing them exit the Champions League at the quarter-final stage.

Juve must move on as soon as possible, however, and will be looking to give their supporters something substantial to cheer this weekend.

Here, Sports Mole takes a look at how the home side could line up against Fiorentina.


POSS JUVE XI vs. FIO

Out: Mattia Perin (shoulder), Martin Caceres (muscule), Giorgio Chiellini (calf), Douglas Costa (fitness)
Doubtful: Mario Mandzukic (knee)

Juve are still without the services of Mattia Perin, Giorgio Chiellini, Douglas Costa and Martin Caceres, while Allegri is expected to make alterations from the clash with Ajax.

Moise Kean, Joao Cancelo and Rodrigo Bentancur were the three players off the bench against Ajax and all three could start this weekend, while Sami Khedira is also expected to earn a spot in the XI.

Mario Mandzukic missed the Ajax clash with a knee problem, but it is thought that the Croatia international will return to the starting XI this weekend, starting alongside Kean and Cristiano Ronaldo in attack.

There could also be a position for Leonardo Spinazzola as Allegri prepares to rotate, with Paulo Dybala and Emre Can amongst those expected to drop out for the Italian champions.
