Juventus Depleted as Bremer Undergoes Knee Surgery for Serie A Clash
19 Oct
Summary
- Juventus will be without Gleison Bremer due to knee surgery
- Como will miss head coach Cesc Fabregas and winger Jesus Rodriguez through suspension
- Mergim Vojvoda, Nico Paz, and Alvaro Morata expected to start for Como
Ahead of their Serie A clash on Sunday, Juventus will be without the services of defender Gleison Bremer, who has recently undergone surgery on his knee. The Brazilian is expected to be sidelined for several weeks, leaving Juventus coach Igor Tudor with a decision to make on who will replace him in the starting lineup.
On the other side, Como will also be missing key personnel, as head coach Cesc Fabregas serves the second match of his two-game suspension, and winger Jesus Rodriguez is also unavailable due to suspension. Injuries have also ruled out Jayden Addai and Assane Diao for the hosts.
Despite these absences, Como is expected to field a strong attacking trio of Mergim Vojvoda, Nico Paz, and Alvaro Morata. Juventus, meanwhile, are still weighing their options for the striker position, with Jonathan David, Dusan Vlahovic, and Lois Openda all in contention to lead the line.
The match is set to kick off at 11:30 BST on Sunday at the Stadio Sinigaglia in Como, Italy. Fans in the UK can tune in to the action live on DAZN, while those in the USA can watch on Paramount+.
