Verona preview: Hoping to put up a fight against the favoured opponent
While Verona started the new season with a disappointing loss to Cesena in the Italian Cup, they've managed to bounce back from that result with an impressive win over Napoli in the first round of Serie A. Next up is an even bigger challenge in Juventus, but Verona have shown that they can be dangerous at home against better teams on paper.
Juan Manuel Cruz and Suat Serdar are on Verona's injury list at this moment.
Predicted lineup: Montipo (GK), Tchatchoua, Coppola, Dawidowicz, Frese, Belahyane, Duda, Livramento, Harroui, Lazovic & Mosquera

Juventus preview: Looking to build on the last week's result
After a third-place finish last season in the league, Juventus will be hoping to get involved in the title race this campaign and they've managed to get off to a flying start with a 3-0 win over Como in the first round. That being said, Como are a newly-promoted team, so Verona should be a more serious challenge for the Old Lady, especially since they'll now play away from home.
When it comes to team news, Timothy Weah and Khephren Thuram got injured against Como and will miss this match, alongside Arkadiusz Milik who is out with a knee issue.
Predicted lineup: Di Gregorio (GK), Danilo, Gatti, Bremer, Cabal, Locatelli, Luiz, Cambiaso, Yildiz, Mbangoula & Vlahovic

Player to watch: Dusan Vlahovic
While he was often criticised last season, the 24-year-old Serbian forward still ended as the top scorer for Juventus in Serie A with 16 goals and he was only behind Lautaro Martinez in the list of top scorers in the entire league.
Vlahovic to score from a free kick?
Last season Vlahovic proved that he's a versatile scorer and has scored goals with both of his feet, his head, from a penalty, and added a couple of goals from direct free kicks. Can we see that against Verona on Monday?
