The disqualifications of Milik and Cuadrado weigh heavily.

Delicate moment for Juventus, particularly for Allegri. After losing in the Champions League, at home, to Benfica, Allegri is in the eye of the storm. To avoid risking the bench, a quick redemption is needed in the upcoming league match with Monza.

Allegri’s problem is the many absences. Between injuries and disqualifications, the Juventus coach may have to give up as many as eight players from his squad. Besides the disqualified Milik and Cuadrado, Rabiot, Locatelli, Pogba, Chiesa, Kaio Jorge and Akè will be out. He should, however, resume his place between the posts Szczesny, although Perin, at the moment, gives ample guarantees with his very high performance.
