Juventus forced to wait on Evra, Hernanes injuries

Both Patrice Evra and Hernanes could miss Juventus' clash with Manchester City on Wednesday due to injury problems, the club has said.

Juventus faces an anxious wait over the fitness of Patrice Evra and Hernanes ahead of its clash with Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday.

Evra was forced off in the first half of Juve's 1-0 win over AC Milan on Saturday. Playmaker Hernanes picked up a groin problem and was replaced at halftime.

"Patrice Evra suffered a light twisted ankle during last night's game with Milan and his condition will be monitored over the course of the coming days," Juventus confirmed via its official website following a training session on Sunday.
