Juventus team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Roma

Juventus injury, suspension list vs. Roma

Juventus's latest title procession takes them to the capital on Sunday evening as they face Roma at the Stadio Olimpico.

Massimiliano Allegri's side wrapped up their eighth successive Scudetto last month but have not won a match since that, being held to draws against Inter Milan and local rivals Torino.

Indeed, Juve's only win in their last six outings across all competitions was the one which secured the title, and they will be hopeful of ending the campaign on a high with just three games now remaining.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Juve ahead of the match.


JUVENTUS'S INJURY LIST

Mattia Perin

Status: Out Type of injury: Shoulder Possible return date: Unknown

Back-up goalkeeper Mattia Perin is not expected to play again this season after suffering a shoulder injury in training last month.


Mario Mandzukic

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: Unknown

Mario Mandzukic was also ruled out in the build-up to the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final with Ajax, and he too is expected to miss the remainder of the season.


Alex Sandro

Status: Major doubt Type of injury: Thigh Possible return date: Unknown

Alex Sandro was forced off early in the second half against Inter Milan and subsequently missed the derby with Torino. An exact timeframe has not yet been put on his return, but he is considered a major doubt for this weekend.


Paulo Dybala

Status: Slight doubt Type of injury: Muscle Possible return date: May 12 (vs. Roma)

Paulo Dybala has missed the last three games with a muscle problem, but he is now back in training and the nine-day wait between matches should have allowed him to recover.


Sami Khedira

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: Unknown

Sami Khedira was ruled out for the remainder of the season after undergoing surgery on a knee injury last month.


Emre Can

Status: Slight doubt Type of injury: Muscle Possible return date: Unknown

Emre Can missed the Turin derby with a muscle injury, although the exact severity of the problem is not yet known and he could be in contention to feature this weekend.


Douglas Costa

Status: Major doubt Type of injury: Calf Possible return date: Unknown

Douglas Costa will have spent more than a month on the sidelines by the time Sunday's match comes around, having picked up a calf injury against Ajax in the Champions League.


Rodrigo Bentancur

Status: Major doubt Type of injury: Muscle Possible return date: Unknown

Rodrigo Bentancur's fitness situation is another around which a certain degree of mystery swirls, with the midfielder having missed the last two games due to muscle fatigue. The long break between matches could work in his favour, though.


JUVENTUS'S SUSPENSION LIST

Allegri has no suspension concerns ahead of Friday evening's clash.
