The key defender of Juventus, Giorgio Chiellini, will not be able to help his team in the Champions League match against Barcelona, ??which can be key for the allocation of seats in Group D.

It was planned that Chiellini will be released in the starting lineup, but in training on the eve of the match he was injured by the hip. A thorough examination showed that he can not play, as reported by the official Twitter of Juventus. It is assumed that his place in the start will take Mehdi Benatya or (with less probability) Daniele Rugani.
