Sampdoria-Juve, Allegri’s probable formation: Rabiot as possible holder

Emergency in attack, a hole in defense and a few more solutions in midfield compared to last Monday’s match with Sassuolo. Allegri works on the best match plan to propose against Sampdoria, with a couple of variations that could still be useful over the course of the ninety minutes. You have to choose the module and, consequently, make a targeted choice forward: where Di Maria will be missing but Kean is back, who is applying for a shirt. The 4-4-2 hypothesis immediately pushes him onto the pitch in support of Vlahovic, while the 4-3-3 proposes him instead as a potential weapon to be spent during the match in progress.

The last arrived

–

The choice is not trivial, also because there are no other solutions available forwards. For this reason, Kostic proposes himself as a possible key to the match, in the left-handed lane: the assists that the Serbian has promised for his compatriot Vlahovic, in short, come in handy immediately. To understand if the winger will act on the midfield line or further forward in the trident, he will certainly be opposed to Cuadrado.

Around Locatelli

–

Then there is at least one doubt to be resolved in midfield, where Rabiot (who seemed destined to say goodbye until a few days ago) could take a starting shirt together with Locatelli and McKennie or Zakaria (the latter’s conditions to be evaluated). In the case of a median of two, the only certain of the place would seem Locatelli.

Without Bonucci

–

Behind, however, Bonucci will be missing, stopped only as a precaution after a slight muscular resentment after Sassuolo: Gatti sees his debut in the top flight, Rugani contends for him for the place next to Bremer and Danilo to protect Perin. While Alex Sandro should earn confirmation on the left wing and, for reasons of seniority in the locker room, also the captain’s armband.
