Amauri falls to 'flu'

Amauri falls to 'flu'
Tuesday 30 September, 2008

Juventus look likely to be without striking ace Amauri against BATE Borisov this evening as he is suffering from a fever.

The ex-Palermo man has been one of the stars of the Old Lady's season and he has three goals to his name.

But despite travelling to Belarus, Amauri is set to sit out tonight's second Champions League encounter.

The Brazilian marksman became ill after last Saturday's clash against Sampdoria and has been unable to shake off his flu-like symptoms.

It looks like Vincenzo Iaquinta will finally have a chance to impress with David Trezeguet out of action until the New Year.

The ex-Udinese man is likely to start alongside Alessandro Del Piero, who scored the only goal against Zenit St Petersburg.

BATE Borisov (probable): Veremko; Khaletski, Sosnovsky, Rzhevsky, Yurevich; Krivets, Likhtarovic, Zaitsev, Stasevich; Rodionov, Bliznyuk

Juventus (probable): Manninger; Grygera, Legrottaglie, Chiellini, Molinaro; Camoranesi, Sissoko, Marchisio, Nedved; Iaquinta, Del Piero
