There is Top 4 top left 1 There’s a season left in two Serie games. Juventus is fourth behind the kickoff, earning a level in points with Lazio in fifth place, one point above Roma in sixth and two points above Bologna in the seventh. All four of these teams will be taking part in Serie A Action at the same time on Sunday evening.
Juventus is the only team that can mathematically secure a spot in the final Champions League of today, but that requires a victory for Bianconeri, with Lazio, Rome and Bologna all going to lose. Otherwise, the Champions League race will be the final week of the season.
Tudor doesn’t have many major first team players, especially at centre-backs. That is, Juventus is expected to return to the back four, in contrast to the 3-4-2-1 shape that coaches have normally used since taking over from Thiagomotta in March.
There is no Pierre CarlNicolo Savona or Keflen Soulam via suspension, and the Ten Coopminers and long-time absentee Bremer, Juan Cabal and Arcadius Milik are all injured.
Luckily for Tudor, Lloyd Kelly and Andrea Cambiaso both questioned at the beginning of the week, but are regularly trained and both line up to get started. They are expected to be joined by Alberto Costa and Renato Vega in the back four. Manuel Rocatelli is also ready to play in defence if necessary.
That said, once everything goes to plan, Rocatelli is expected to start midfield alongside Weston McKenney, with offensive support from Nico Gonzalez, Timothy Weir, Kenan Ildis and Randall Coro Muani. Dusan Vlahovic is expected to start again from among the alternatives.
Kick-off deadline is 19.45 BST.
