Randal Kolo Muani and Nick Woltemade will start together for the first time in the Juventus attack as the Bianconeri host Rennes at the Allianz Stadium in the Europa League Round 3.
It kicks off at 18:45 CET [17:45 BST] at the Allianz Stadium in Turin.
The Bianconeri have already won the opening two Europa League games in the league phase, but want to bounce back after a 3-0 home loss against Lazio in Serie A last Sunday.
The Old Lady’s coach Luciano Spalletti confirmed on Wednesday that Kolo Muani and Woltemade would start together for the first time today.
Spalletti is still dealing with a selection crisis, with Francisco Conceiçao, Kenan Yildiz, Manuel Locatelli, Khephren Thuram, Kamil Grabara and Jeff Ekhator injured. Edon Zhegrova, Daniele Rugani and Arkadiusz Milik are also unavailable because they are not on the Bianconeri’s UEFA list.
According to multiple sources, including Tuttosport, Gazzetta and Sky, Gleison Bremer will start at the back, joined by Federico Gatti and Lloyd Kelly.
There’s doubt on the right flank over whether Pierre Kalulu or Zeki Celik will start, while Andrea Cambiaso is expected to play as a left midfielder. Douglas Luiz and Pape Matar Sarr will compete for a starting spot in central midfield alongside Teun Koopmeiners.
The match is available on TNT Sports 5, HBO Max, and NOW TV in the UK and Ireland, and on CBS Sports Network, Paramount+, fuboTV, TUDN USA, TUDN.com, the TUDN App, and ViX in the USA. Football Italia will provide live updates via a live blog with Bournemouth-Milan and Ajax-Atalanta (Conference League) to follow at 21:00 CET.
