Juventus launch a new strike force of Kenan Yildiz, Jeremie Boga, Francisco Conceicao and Weston McKennie against Udinese’s Keinan Davis and Nicolò Zaniolo.
It kicks off at the Bluenergy Stadium in Udine at 19.45 GMT (20.45 CET).
You can follow all the build-up and action as it happens from today’s three Serie A games on the Liveblog.
The Bianconeri had been in a crisis of results until thrashing Pisa 4-0 last week, and hope the fixture list can give them a helping hand to get back into the top four.
Dusan Vlahovic returned to training over the last few days, but has not made the trip along with Emil Holm and Arek Milik.

Misfiring Jonathan David is therefore dropped and replaced with Yildiz as a False 9, supported by Francisco Conceicao, McKennie and new entry Boga.
The former Sassuolo and Marseille winger impressed off the bench and gets his first start.

Udinese had a dismal run of three straight defeats, but it’s no coincidence that ended with the return of Davis from injury.
He had a starring role in the 3-0 win over Fiorentina and 2-2 draw with Atalanta, so again partners Italy international Zaniolo upfront.
Arthur Atta and Oumar Solet are back in the squad after injury, but Nicolò Bertola, Jordan Zemura and Alessandro Zanoli miss out.
Udinese vs. Juventus line-ups
Udinese: Okoye; Ehizibue, Kabasele, Kristensen; Zarraga, Ekkelenkamp, Karlstrom, Atta, Kamara; Zaniolo, Davis
Juventus: Perin; Kalulu, Bremer, Kelly, Cambiaso; Locatelli, Thuram; Conceicao, McKennie, Boga; Yildiz
