Yildiz Challenges Nico Paz

In an upcoming Serie A match, Como will host Juventus, with two standout players, Nico Paz and Yildiz, set to take center stage. Juventus coach Tudor remarked on the pressure his team faces, noting that they must overcome the challenges presented by Como, a team he described as a “false small team.”
Injury Concerns for Juventus
Juventus enters this match with significant injury issues. Key players Cesc Fabregas and Rodriguez will miss the game due to suspensions. Additionally, both Bremer and Cabal have sustained injuries, further complicating the team’s defensive options. With only seven days until crucial fixtures against Real Madrid and Lazio, the stakes are high.
Juventus’ Recent Performance
Juventus has struggled recently, managing only draws in their last five matches since a victory against Inter on September 13. The team is seeking to break this cycle as they gear up for a challenging Champions League match against Real Madrid.
Tactical Adjustments
In light of recent injuries and in preparation for upcoming matches, Juventus may tweak their formation. Coach Tudor hinted at possible changes, suggesting that Yildiz will likely play behind the striker in a 3-4-2-1 setup that can transition to a 3-5-2 during the game. These tactical adjustments aim to provide a stronger attack, especially with Vlahovic expected to start alongside Yildiz.
