All the information you need to know about how and where to watch Juventus host Barcelona at the Allianz Stadium (Turin) on October 28 at 21:00 CET.
Juventus and Barcelona will meet at the Allianz Stadium in one of the best matches of the Champions League group stage in a repeat of the 2015 final. Both teams are clear favorites in Group G and a win for either of them could go a long way towards securing first place. The match will take place 24 hours after Josep Maria Bartomeu resigned as president of the Catalan club.
The Italian giants have won their last four home games in the tournament and they have only lost four of their 42 European matches at the Allianz Stadium. However, Cristiano Ronaldo will not play for Juve after the Portuguese star tested positive for coronavirus again. That also means that the long-awaited showdown between him and Lionel Messi, both racking up 11 Ballons d’Or, will not happen.
Ronaldo’s absence is a great loss for the bianconeri, as the forward has scored 15 goals in his last 20 appearances against the Catalan national team in all competitions, not to mention the all-time leading scorer in the Champions League.
But Juventus’ concerns do not end here, with Giorgio Chiellini limping on matchday one to join Matthis de Ligt on the bench. Weston McKennie is likely to miss it too.
Andrea Pirlo hopes that Leonardo Bonucci is finally ready to play against Barça, while Paolo Dybala is expected to appear after starting his first game of the season against Hellas Verona last weekend.
As for Barcelona, Gerard Piqué will not be available after being suspended after being sent off in the 5-1 win over Ferencvaros at the Camp Nou. His colleague Samuel Umtiti is not in shape, so it could open the possibility of Ronald Araujo will be teammates with Clement Lenglet in defense. Philippe Coutinho will miss the match with a hamstring problem.
Neto is expected to put the gloves back on before his former teammates as Rising young star Ansu Fati will start again alongside Messi.
Fans, however, could witness another interesting clash between Miralem Pjanic and Arthur Melo, having exchanged between both clubs during the summer.
