Latest team news for Juventus vs Sporting Lisbon
Luciano Spalletti surprised many by sticking with Igor Tudor's signature three-centre-back formation in his debut – albeit with some flexible variations – so Juventus may continue to use a similar lineup to the win against Cremonese.
The South American centre-backs Bremer and Juan Cabal are still injured, but Kenan Yildiz (knee) and Lloyd Kelly (muscle) could return after missing last weekend.
Juve's attacking line-up has been constantly changing this season, but Dusan Vlahovic has started the last two games alongside Lois Openda, while Jonathan David seems to have been left out of the plans.
To date, Vlahovic has been involved in 11 goals in 19 Champions League appearances, while Sporting star Pedro Gonçalves has been involved in 9 goals in 16 matches – the highest in the club's history.
Gonçalves will continue to partner Francisco Trincão and Geovany Quenda up front, supporting striker Ioannidis or Luis Suárez.
Sporting will still be without two key players with long-term injuries: Nuno Santos and Daniel Bragança. In addition, Zeno Debast's recovery is uncertain, and right-back Ivan Fresneda had to leave the field due to injury in the match against Alverca and may be replaced by Georgios Vagiannidis.
Latest predicted lineups for Juventus vs Sporting Lisbon
Juventus:
Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Rugani, Gatti; Cambiaso, Thuram, Locatelli, Koopmeiners, Kostic; Openda, Vlahovic
Sporting Lisbon:
Silva; Vagiannidis, Diomande, Inacio, Araujo; Hjulmand, Morita; Quenda, Trincao, Goncalves; Suarez
Latest football match prediction: Juventus vs Sporting Lisbon
After two dramatic draws – 4-4 against Borussia Dortmund and 2-2 with Villarreal – Juventus face their toughest challenge yet in the Champions League as they travel to the Bernabeu.
Despite their best efforts, the Bianconeri suffered a defeat against Real Madrid, extending their poor run of form. After eight consecutive matches without a win in all competitions, Italy's most successful club decided to part ways with coach Igor Tudor, hoping to halt their decline.
Under the interim leadership of coach Massimo Brambilla, Juventus finally ended their winless streak with a 3-1 victory over Udinese — a match that also paved the way for the arrival of a veteran manager.
Former Napoli and Italy national team coach, Luciano Spalletti, has been appointed on a temporary contract until the end of the season. He made his debut for the team in a Serie A match against Cremonese, coinciding with the club's 128th anniversary.
Spalletti's start couldn't have been better, with Filip Kostic scoring just two minutes into the game, and Andrea Cambiaso doubling the lead in the 60th minute. Although Jamie Vardy pulled one back late, Juventus still secured all three points.
This victory keeps Juve close to the top of Serie A, but now they need to focus on reviving their form in European competitions.
Since last season, Juventus have won only two of their last 11 Champions League matches — however, they have a good head-to-head record against this week's opponent.
The Bianconeri are unbeaten in their four encounters with Sporting Lisbon, winning both matches in Turin, including eliminating the Portuguese team in the 2023 Europa League quarter-finals.
Tuesday's match will be Sporting's 20th official game on Italian soil, and they are still searching for their first win, having lost 14 times before.
The Portuguese team has also faltered in Italy in three of the last four seasons, including a defeat to Juventus in the Europa League and a loss to Napoli last month.
Sporting have lost three consecutive away matches in the Champions League with the same 1-2 scoreline, but they are still 5 points ahead of Juve in the group.
This season, Sporting started with a 4-1 home win against Kairat, then lost in Naples, before defeating Marseille in their most recent match.
In the match against Marseille, they were trailing but came back to win after their opponents had a player sent off before halftime.
The second half saw tremendous pressure from Sporting, and substitutes Geny Catamo and Alisson Santos scored, keeping the team's hopes alive of securing direct qualification to the knockout round.
In the Primeira Liga, Sporting secured their fifth consecutive victory in all competitions after defeating Alverca 2-0 on Friday, with goals from Fotis Ioannidis and Pedro Gonçalves. They are now level on points with league leaders Porto and travel to Turin in high spirits.
