Juventus travel to Lecce on Sunday at 17.00 GMT with nine players sidelined through injury. Manager Luciano Spalletti named a 20-man squad for the Serie A fixture at Stadio Via del Mare. Fresh injuries to Zeki Celik and Nico Gonzalez sustained in Thursday's 2-2 Europa League draw with Stade Rennais compound the squad shortage.
The club already had Kenan Yildiz, Khephren Thuram, Jeff Ekhator, Manuel Locatelli and Kamil Grabara unavailable. Long-term absentee Arkadiusz Milik was removed from the Serie A registration list.
Juventus arrive in poor form, without a league win since September 20. They drew 1-1 away to Cagliari and suffered a 3-0 home defeat to Lazio before the Rennais stalemate.
