Juventus Field Near-Full Strength Lineup in Final Preseason Friendly at Atalanta

Igor Tudor is using Trofeo Bortolotti to increase Bremer’s minutes, refine Teun Koopmeiners’ role, finalise the starting XI before the season opener

Overview

  • Tonight’s Trofeo Bortolotti kicks off at 20:45 in Bergamo’s Gewiss Stadium with live coverage on DAZN.
  • Juventus will field a near-first choice XI featuring new signing Jonathan David at the tip of the attack as a dress rehearsal for the Serie A opener against Parma.
  • Center-back Bremer is set for extended minutes as part of his phased return from ACL surgery after playing one half in the Dortmund friendly.
  • Teun Koopmeiners will operate in a deeper midfield role as Igor Tudor tests tactical adjustments to rekindle his performance and confidence.
  • Atalanta could be without midfielder Ederson due to a knee issue that will be rechecked in the coming days, likely paving the way for Mario Pasalic to start.
