An injury to Giorgio Chiellini has changed the plan for Juventus in this evening's match against Barcelona. Without the Italian, Max Allegri will now opt for a 3-4-2-1 formation in the crucial Champions League showdown. Giovanni Guardalà is reporting that the back three will consist of Barzagli, Rugani and Benatia. The midfield will consist of Pjanic and Khedira in central roles while Alex Sandro and Cuadrado will play on the wings. The striker will be, as usual, Gonzalo Higuain, and he will be supported by Dybala and Douglas Costa, who looks set to get the start over Mandzukic. Here is the probable formation:
Juventus (3-4-2-1): Buffon; Benatia, Rugani, Barzagli; Khedira, Pjanic, Cuadrado, Alex Sandro; Dybala, Douglas Costa; Higuain.
