Juventus are set to face Udinese in the Coppa Italia Round of 16 at the Allianz Stadium, with Luciano Spalletti managing his first Coppa Italia match as Juventus's new head coach. The team is expected to make personnel changes, including squad rotation, due to a congested schedule and recent injuries. Key absences include Dusan Vlahovic, who will be out for at least three months with a high-grade adductor injury, and other injured players like Gleison Bremer, Daniele Rugani, and Arek Milik. In goal, Michele Di Gregorio will start instead of Mattia Perin, who is fatigued. Juventus will likely line up in a 4-4-2 formation, with Jonathan David and Kenan Yildiz leading the attack in Vlahovic’s absence. The squad will feature some rotation, with Fabio Miretti expected to get significant minutes, given his positive development this season. Udinese, having already defeated Carrarese and Palermo in earlier rounds, will travel to Turin without Thomas Kristensen and Hassane Kamara but will include star attacker Nicolo Zaniolo. The match is scheduled for 9 p.m. local time, with multiple broadcasting options available. Juventus aims to avoid the upset of early elimination and progress further in the tournament, with the challenge heightened by the need to manage player workload and maintain focus amid a busy fixture list.
