Juventus will look to maintain their unbeaten start to the 2019-20 campaign with a game against Genoa in Serie A on Wednesday.
Maurizio Sarri's men, who are top of the league, take on a struggling Genoa side enjoying a new lease of life under former midfielder Thiago Motta.
Team News
Juventus
Cristiano Ronaldo was rested at the weekend and Juventus drew to Lecce. He will return to the starting XI here, along with Juan Cuarado, Blaise Matuidi and Sami Khedira.
Rodrigo Bentancur will replace Miralem Pjanic in midfield with the latter set to be sidelined for a couple of weeks after picking up a muscular injury on Saturday.
Paulo Dybala should be fine to start next to Ronaldo after Gonzalo Higuain picked up a nasty cut to his head at the weekend.
Aaron Ramsey and Douglas Costa have been included in Juventus' squad after overcoming injuries
Genoa
Former Inter midfielder Thiago Motta earned a deserved win on Saturday in his first game in charge of Genoa. He made some bold attacking substitutions early in the second half and they paid off.
Christian Kouame, Andrea Pinamonti and Goran Pandev should all start up front on Wednesday.
Probable Lineups
Juventus: Szczesny, Sandro, De Ligt, Bonucci, Cuadrado, Matuidi, Bentancur, Khedira, Bernardeschi, Ronaldo, Dybala
Genoa: Radu, Ghiglione, Romero, Zapata, Ankersen, Schone, Radovanovic, Lerager, Kouame, Pinamonti, Pandev

I don't how sarri is manage to win matchest with Khedira in midfield it's like you are playing with 10 player Khedira is only doing back passing . Sarri is wasting talent like rabiot after Costa return he should play dybala as flase 9 &

Last year when Pjanic was injured, Allegri's first choice was Can but he didnt do well then Bentancur was played at that position since then Bentancur has been called upto play there whenever Pjanic was injured.
Oh okay.

I don't see Juve winning this match despite Ronaldo playing. There's no midfielder at juve who can do the work Pjanic does.

You sure? Is he any good as Pjanic?
Not as good as Pjanic but good enough. He can deputise anywhere in midfield though he is at his best when played on the right of a midfield 3.

Bentancur can do a decent job at CDM.
