Maurizio Sarri’s side is currently at the top of Group D with seven points, whereas Lokomotiv Moscow finds itself at the third spot with just three points on board.

Yuri Semin’s side will be keen on registering all three points versus Juventus in order to stand a chance of going through to the round of 16.

Match Details 

Date- Wednesday, November 6 | Kick-Off- 11:25 PM (IST) | Venue- Lokomotiv Stadium


Lokomotiv Moscow Team News

Dimitri Barinov will undergo his one-match ban and is out of contention. Jefferson Farfan, Boris Rotenberg and Luka Djordjevic are on the sidelines due to injury, whereas Anton Miranchuk and Fedor Smolov could be made available in the team sheet. A five-man defence is expected to be the setup with both Benedikt Howedes and Vedran Corluka likely to be present. Gregorz Krychowiak and Joao Maria should fill in at midfield.


Juventus Team News

Juan Cuadrado is suspended for the fixture after receiving three yellows in the campaign. Danilo is the likely candidate to fill in at wing-back as a result. Giorgio Chiellini, Marki Pjaca and Mattia Perrin are ruled out due to injuries. Mattia De Sciglio, Douglas Costa and Miralem Pjanic have recently recovered from injuries and give Sarri further options. Blaise Matuidi could miss out against Atletico Madrid if he gets booked in against Lokomotiv. A toss-up between Higuain and Dybala is expected while Cristiano Ronaldo remains a constant in Juventus’ attack.


Predicted Lineups

Lokomotiv Moscow- Guilherme; Idowu, Howedes, Corluka, Murilo, Ignatyev; Krychowiak, Barunov, Mario; Eder, Kolomeytsev

Juventus-  Szczesny; Danilo, Bonucci, De Ligt, Sandro; Khedira, Pjanic, Matuidi; Bernardeschi; Ronaldo, Higuain

Top Picks

Grzegorz Krychowiak in midfield has been pivotal for Lokomotiv Moscow this season. Krychowiak has 5 goals in an assist in 16 appearances so far.

Eder has been an exciting prospect in attack for the Russian club this season. The Portuguese centre-forward has scored four goals from nine league appearances but is yet to score in the Champions League this season.

For Juventus, Miralem Pjanic has been a vital cog in midfield. Pjanic has three goals, an assist and a pass accuracy of 87% so far.

Cristiano Ronaldo remains one of the main figures in Juve’s attack this season. The talisman has scored six goals in 12 appearances for the club.


Win Prediction

Lokomotiv Moscow might be the hosts for this one, but their recent form in Europe, as well as Juventus’ squad depth and quality, might be a lot to ask for. A Juventus win is on the cards.
