With the championship barely underway, a number of players have suffered physical ailments, with some minor line-up reshuffles to be expected.
Morata, a real headache
Alvaro Morata, who scored in his first game, suffered a muscle problem in his left thigh against Parma, and Okafor rather than Jovic will take his place up front.
Lautaro out?
Lautaro felt pain in his adductor muscle and didn’t train yesterday. Inter’s captain could miss the game against Lecce, leaving his place to Mehdi Taremi. At the back, De Vrij remains unavailable.
Zaniolo out, Lookman in
Zaniolo is still unlikely to make his debut for Atalanta, as he is still suffering from tendinitis in his left foot. Lookman, meanwhile, is back in the squad after his false start for PSG.
Thuram and Weah on the sidelines
Kephren Thurma and Weah, who played a key role in Juve’s opening 3-0 win over Como, suffered a thigh injury which could keep them out for up to ten days. They will be replaced by Douglas Luiz and Cambiaso (who is moving up a level).
