The Bianconeri had a perfect start in Serie A with back-to-back 3-0 wins, but although they are yet to concede a single goal, are coming off two 0-0 draws with Roma and Empoli.

Douglas Luiz is dropped again after a disappointing performance, as Weston McKennie steps into midfield, while new signings Nico Gonzalez and Koopmeiners complete the attack with Yildiz and Vlahovic.

Francisco Conceicao and Arkadiusz Milik are out injured.

PSV Eindhoven are missing ex-Napoli man Hirving Lozano, Mauro Junior, Armando Obispo, Fredrik Oppegard, Ismael Saibari and long-term absentee Sergiño Dest.

Goalkeeper Walter Benitez was also given permission to fly back home, as his partner is about to give birth, so Joel Drommel steps in.

Former Bologna midfielder Jerdy Schouten starts, while Johan Bakayoko and Malik Tillman fan out around centre-forward Luuk de Jong.

Ex-Roma full-back Rick Karsdorp is not in the squad.

Juventus: Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Gatti, Bremer, Cambiaso; Locatelli, McKennie; Nico Gonzalez, Koopmeiners, Yildiz; Vlahovic

PSV Eindhoven: Drommel; Ledezma, Flamingo, Boscagli, Dams; Til, Schouten, Veerman; Bakayoko, L de Jong, Tillman
