Conceiçao served a one-match ban in Serie A last weekend and is also back to action for tonight’s Champions League clash.

Both players are expected to feature in the Bianconeri’s starting XI tonight.

Teun Koopmeiners, Gleison Bremer, Nico Gonzalez and Arkadiusz Milik are injured, while Michele Di Gregorio is suspended after receiving a straight red card in the previous European fixture against RB Leipzig.

Due to Di Gregorio’s suspension, Mattia Perin will start between the sticks tonight, while 19-year-old Giovanni Daffara has been called up and will be Juventus’ third-choice keeper tonight.
