Juventus beat Manchester City and will now look to revive their form in Serie A against Gianluca Busio’s Venezia with Weston McKennie and Tim Weah.

Kick-off takes place at 7.45pm GMT at the Allianz Juventus Stadium.

You can follow all the build-up and action from these games, Cagliari-Atalanta and Udinese-Napoli, on the live blog.

The Bianconeri caused a shock on Wednesday when they beat Manchester City 2-0 in the Champions League here, with goals from Dusan Vlahovic and substitute McKennie.

Now they hope to carry some of that form into Serie A, where they remain unbeaten but have also played three straight stalemate games against Bologna, Lecce and Milan.

They are slipping further and further away from the top spot and continue to battle an injury crisis with Andrea Cambiaso, Jonas Rouhi, Arek Milik, Gleison Bremer and Juan Cabal missing.

The good news is the return of Nico Gonzalez to the bench after a two-month layoff, while McKennie and Weah move into the starting XI.

There is no rest for Kenan Yildiz, Teun Koopmeiners or Vlahovic.

Venezia coach Eusebio Di Francesco remains hanging on by a thread after disastrous form, although he managed to break the run of four straight defeats with a 2-2 home draw against Como.

Jesse Joronen, Alfred Duncan, Richie Sagrado and Antonio Raimondo are out of action.

USMNT player Busio supports Gaetano Oristanio and Joel Pohjanpalo, while Juventus player Hans Nicolussi Caviglia is looking to impress, especially in midfield.
