Trezeguet already missed Saturday's controversial 2-1 defeat at Reggina with the flu and has not been included in Claudio Ranieri's squad for the midweek encounter having failed to fully recover.

His absence will be a blow for the Bianconeri with Trezeguet currently leading Serie A's goalscoring chart alongside Genoa's Marco Borriello with 15 goals apiece.

Juve go into the encounter determined to return to the winning ways and reduce their four-point gap with second-place Roma, who take on Internazionale at the San Siro 24 hours later.
