Juventus vs. Udinese: Official Serie A Week 9 Line-ups Announced

Juventus will face Udinese in an important Serie A match under caretaker manager Massimo Brambilla. The match is set to kick off at 17:30 GMT at the Allianz Juventus Stadium in Turin.

Juventus’ Recent Struggles

Juventus recently parted ways with head coach Igor Tudor after a disappointing series of results. The team has suffered three consecutive defeats and has gone four matches without scoring a goal. This has resulted in a seven-match winless run for the Bianconeri.

In an effort to break the goal drought, Brambilla has made some changes to the starting eleven. Key attacking players Kenan Yildiz and Dusan Vlahovic will lead the front line, joined by Lois Openda. Notably, Jonathan David has been dropped due to his recent underperformance.

• Khephren Thuram is sidelined with a calf injury.
• Other absentees include Gleison Bremer, Juan Cabal, Arek Milik, and Carlo Pinsoglio.
• Filip Kostic will replace Teun Koopmeiners on the left wing.

Udinese’s Current Form

Udinese is currently on an unbeaten streak of three matches, having just secured a thrilling 3-2 victory over Lecce. Despite facing injury concerns, they are looking to capitalize on Juventus’ struggles.

Squad Updates for Udinese

Injuries have impacted Udinese’s lineup, with Thomas Kristensen, Iker Bravo, and Alessandro Nunziante unavailable. Oumar Solet is not fully fit but will still participate. Nicolò Zaniolo continues to be a key player, partnering with Keinan Davis upfront.

• Goalkeeper Maduka Okoye returns for his third match of the season after a ban.
• Arthur Atta is in good form and is expected to contribute significantly.

Projected Line-Ups
