Ex Genoa & Newcastle United Stars Fit For The Bench In Juventus Vs Inter Milan Serie A Showdown – Italy International To Get A Rest | OneFootball

Andrea Cambiaso and Lloyd Kelly will be fit to be on the bench for Juventus in this evening’s Serie A clash with Inter Milan.

This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews. They also report that midfielder Manuel Locatelli will get a rest.

This evening, Inter Milan take on Juventus in the second Derby d’Italia of the season.

The last time that the Nerazzurri and the Bianconeri faced off, it ended in a wild 4-4 draw.

And this time out, both teams will have ample motivation to win, beyond the usual intensity of the rivalry.

For Inter, there is the chance to capitalize on more dropped points by Napoli after the league leaders drew away to Lazio yesterday. Inter can go top of the table with a win this evening.

Juventus, meanwhile, can regain their spot in the top four of the table with three points.

Cambiaso & Kelly Fit For The Bench In Juventus Vs Inter Clash

There have been a couple of defensive question marks for Juventus coach Thiago Motta.

The biggest concerns defender Andrea Cambiaso. The 24-year-old has been out with an ankle problem for the last couple weeks.

Cambiaso will not be able to return to the starting eleven this evening.

However, reports the Gazzetta, the Italian international will be able to start on the bench.

The same is true, meanwhile, of January signing Lloyd Kelly.

The Englishman joined Juventus from Newcastle United and more or less slotted straight into the starting eleven. However, he has suffered from an illness in recent days.

But Kelly will be fit enough to be on the bench.

Meanwhile, reports the Gazzetta, midfielder Manuel Locatelli will get a rest. That means that Khephren Thuram will start for the Bianconeri.
