Manchester City take on Juventus later today in what will be a vital game in the Champions League for both sides.
Pep Guardiola’s side have eight points in the competition and are tied on points with their Turin opponents.
Both sides come into the game on the back of indifferent league form, with Manchester City currently fourth in the Premier League and Juventus sixth in Serie A.
As the game inches closer, there could potentially be some good news for Thiago Motta’s side.
IlBianconero look at the fitness of Andrea Cambiaso. He went off early in the recent Serie A game against Bologna due to injury, which brought about doubts about his fitness for the Manchester City clash.
The outlet states that these are ‘decisive hours’ for the versatile Cambiaso, who has been key for Juve this season and has played every game in all competitions.
It’s touch and go for the Italian, who is suffering from ankle strain, but optimism appears to be growing.
If he doesn’t come across any issues, he will be included in the squad, and in the case he doesn’t play, ex-City defender Danilo could step in.
24-year-old Cambiaso has proven to be a vital performer for Motta, playing in various positions. Tactically, he has shown an ability to invert in midfield too.
