How Juventus could line up against Udinese

Sports Mole looks at how Juventus could line up for Thursday's Serie A meeting with Udinese.

Juventus square off against Udinese on Thursday evening knowing that they only require five points from four matches to win their ninth successive Serie A title.

After a three-match winless streak, a double from Cristiano Ronaldo helped Juve to a 2-1 triumph over Lazio on Monday evening, effectively leaving their opponents out of the title race.

Unless Atalanta BC and Inter Milan win their upcoming games, Maurizio Sarri's side could be crowned champions by the end of the week.

Here, Sports Mole takes a look at how Juventus may line up for the game at Stadio Friuli against opponents who are without a victory in three games.



JUVXI VS. UDI

Out: Leonardo Bonucci (suspended), Sami Khedira (muscular), Mattia De Sciglio (thigh)

Sarri will be forced into one change with centre-back Leonardo Bonucci serving a one-match suspension for 10 yellow cards.

With Merih Demiral short of match fitness after a serious knee injury, Daniele Rugani is expected to be brought into the middle of the defence.

Sarri may also remove Aaron Ramsey from the starting lineup after the Wales international was withdrawn after 57 minutes against Lazio.

Blaise Matuidi is the obvious replacement for the playmaker, with Rodrigo Bentancur moving out to the right-hand side of a midfield three.

Although Federico Bernandeschi is available after a ban, Douglas Costa may keep his spot on the right flank.

Danilo is an alternative in the full-back areas should Sarri opt to rest either Juan Cuadrado or Alex Sandro.
