Juventus trust Kenan Yildiz, Francisco Conceicao and Randal Kolo Muani, but are forced into a defensive revamp against Dean Huijsen’s Real Madrid in the Club World Cup Round of 16.

It kicks off at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami at 20.00 UK time, 15.00 local time.

The winners will face either Borussia Dortmund or Monterrey in the quarter-final on Saturday.

How to watch Real Madrid vs. Juventus

The best way to live stream the Club World Cup is with DAZN, which is offering a free service this summer, which can also be upgraded to a premium service. DAZN’s free offer means ads during games, and no replays or extended highlights, but it’s still a pretty tempting deal that will surely get Calcio fans and others signing up quickly.

Team News

Igor Tudor’s men started with comfortable victories over Al-Ain and Wydad AC, only to be swept aside 5-2 by Manchester City.

Nicolò Savona badly sprained his ankle in that match and will be out for at least a month, but more changes are forced too, as Federico Gatti is suffering from flu symptoms.

With Gleison Bremer not fit either, that means Daniele Rugani has to get his Club World Cup debut from the start with Pierre Kalulu and Lloyd Kelly.

Timothy Weah and Samuel Mbangula return to the bench after rejecting transfers to Nottingham Forest, with Dusan Vlahovic dropped.

Weston McKennie is sent to the bench in favour of Alberto Costa in a more advanced role.

Real Madrid drew 1-1 with Al-Hilal, then beat Pachuca and RB Salzburg as they get used to life under new coach Xabi Alonso.

He too had a lot of injury issues, missing David Alaba, Ferland Mendy, Endrick, Daniel Carvajal and Eder Militao.

Kylian Mbappé was suffering from a nasty bout of gastroenteritis, so has not played a minute of Club World Cup football so far and is for the first time on the bench.

It is therefore the same starting XI that beat RB Salzburg 3-0, with Gonzalo Garcia, Vinicius Junior and Arda Guler.

That sends Jude Bellingham into a deeper role, while former Juventus youth team player Dean Huijsen faces his former club.

Another summer signing playing today is ex-Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold.
