Serie A: Juventus vs. Sassuolo – Match Preview, Probable Line-ups & Where to Watch
Juventus prepares to host Sassuolo in a crucial Serie A encounter, with Kenan Yildiz and Jeremie Boga expected to play key roles in their attack. Sassuolo, however, faces significant challenges due to a recent whooping cough outbreak affecting several team members.
The match is scheduled to kick off at 20:45 CET (19:45 GMT) at the Allianz Stadium in Turin.
For the Bianconeri, Emil Holm remains unavailable, and Dusan Vlahovic's participation is still uncertain. Should Vlahovic be cleared to play, he is anticipated to start from the bench.
Head coach Luciano Spalletti is reportedly set to field the same starting eleven that secured a victory against Udinese last week. This lineup is expected to feature Kenan Yildiz operating as a false nine, with Jeremie Boga deployed on the left wing.

Sassuolo finds itself in a selection crisis following the confirmation of a whooping cough case on Friday, with five additional team members displaying symptoms consistent with the illness.
The club has not yet disclosed the identities of those affected, meaning the full extent of player availability will only become clear an hour before kick-off when the official team sheets are announced.
Despite these challenges, key players such as Domenico Berardi, Andrea Pinamonti, and Sebastian Walukiewicz are expected to be available and feature in the starting lineup.
Additionally, Cristian Volpato, Luca Moro, Edoardo Iannoni, Pedro Felipe, Aro Muric, Giacomo Satalino, Gioele Zacchi, and Cristian Frangella are also anticipated to be available for selection.
