Juventus won’t have Adrien Rabiot for the game versus Cagliari. The midfielder picked up his fifth yellow card in the victory over Fiorentina, triggering a one-match suspension. That’ll leave the midfield highly depleted for the next bout. On the other hand, he’ll be available for the pivotal clash with Inter after the international break.
It will be slim pickings for Massimiliano Allegri at the position. Though, he doesn’t intend to move on from 3-5-2, TuttoSport informs. Andrea Cambiaso is poised to start, either on the right flank, with Weston McKennie centrally, or vice versa, as they did in the final portion of the contest against the Viola.
The Juventus coach often said Samuel Iling-Junior could play box-to-box if need be. Still, the youngster has completely fallen off the radar. The only other alternative would be Hans Nicolussi Caviglia. He has yet to log a single minute though.
The other two players suspended for Round 12 across the league are Atalanta’s Rafael Toloi and Udinese’s Christian Kabasele, also for yellow-card accumulation.
Our Take on Juventus Losing Rabiot
The silver lining is that it could have happened for a worse game, even though Cagliari have bounced back in the last two tilts. Cambiaso has played centrally in the past too but didn’t seem very at ease last week. It’s better to put him wide, perhaps with a 3-4-3 on the horizon if they need to score.
