Serie A: Lecce vs Juventus – Expected lineups and where to watch

Thiago Motta faces another forced change as Juventus travel to Lecce on Sunday afternoon with a squad supported by young Bianconeri players in Serie A.

The Bianconeri will be without Next Gen graduate Nicolo Savona, who joins an injury list that already includes leading goalscorer Dusan Vlahovic, as well as Arkadiusz Milik, Nico Gonzalez, Douglas Luiz, Bremer and Juan Cabal.

Savona is expected to be replaced by club captain Danilo at right-back. The captain has also been linked with a January move to Napoli in recent days.

Elsewhere, Motta doesn’t have too many options to rotate his team, so Khephren Thuram and Manuel Locatelli are expected to remain in central midfield.

However, there could also be a change at goalkeeper as pre-match reports suggest Mattia Perin will get the nod between the posts for Michele Do Gregorio.

Kick-off is at 7.45pm GMT.
