Juventus Prepares for Match Against Parma Despite Player Changes

TURIN, Italy — Juventus will field Randal Kolo Muani in their lineup against Parma on Wednesday, despite Kenan Yildiz‘s recent improvement. Kolo Muani is expected to play a key role in the match scheduled at Stadio Tardini.

The Turkey international, Yildiz, sustained an injury during training last week, leading to expectations that he would start on the bench. This fixture was originally intended for Monday but was postponed due to the death of Pope Francis. Following the postponement, Juventus returned to Turin after the initial travel plans were disrupted.

The team’s players resumed training at their center on Monday and Tuesday ahead of the match. They will travel to Parma by plane on Wednesday morning, preparing for the 18:30 CET kickoff.

Coach Massimiliano Allegri will likely start Kolo Muani and Nico Gonzalez on the flanks to support striker Dusan Vlahovic. Although Yildiz has made strides in his recovery, he will remain a substitute for this fixture.

This match is one of four Serie A games rescheduled from the weekend, alongside Torino-Udinese, Genoa-Lazio, and Cagliari-Fiorentina.
