Juventus are set to take on Villarreal in a pivotal Champions League match this Wednesday, with both teams eager to record their first wins of the campaign.
The Yellow Submarine will be aiming to recover from their initial setback in the competition, while the Old Lady arrive looking to build momentum following a thrilling draw with Borussia Dortmund.
Juventus team news
The Italian side will be missing two important players for this fixture, as Gleison Bremer and Khéphren Thuram have been left out of the travelling squad. Both had to leave the pitch during the recent 1-1 draw against Atalanta due to injury issues; Thuram’s absence is of particular concern after he was forced to skip Tuesday’s training because of a calf problem. Although Bremer was able to participate in team training, he did not make the trip to Spain.
However, there is some encouraging news for Juventus, as Francisco Conceição has recovered from his knock and rejoins the squad after sitting out the Atalanta game. Edon Zhegrova has also been added to the roster for this critical outing. Meanwhile, Arkadiusz Milik remains unavailable due to a shin complaint, and Fabio Miretti continues his recovery from a hamstring injury.

Possible Juventus starting XI: Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Bremer, Kelly; Mario, Thuram, Locatelli, Cambiaso; Conceicao, Yildiz; David
