Dybala doubt for Allegri despite Juventus missing Higuain

The Serie A leaders are set to be without one Argentine forward against Atalanta and remain wary of pressing another into 90 minutes of action

Massimiliano Allegri is not sure Paulo Dybala is ready to start for Juventus, as the coach considers how to replace the injured Gonzalo Higuain for Sunday's Serie A game against Atalanta.

Dybala made his return from an absence of six weeks due to a hamstring injury in Juve's 1-0 derby win at Torino last time out, with Higuain substituted early in that game after picking up a fitness problem of his own.
