Injury blow for Juventus with De Ligt and Costa set to miss Atletico clash

Matthijs de Ligt is a doubt for Juventus' match with Atletico Madrid in the Champions League in Turin on Tuesday after suffering a dislocated shoulder in Saturday's 3-1 win over Atalanta.

Team-mate Douglas Costa will also be sidelined for the Atletico game because of a thigh strain, Juventus indicated.

Victory in Bergamo was the Bianconeri's fifth in a row in all competitions and they are top of Serie A, one point clear of Inter, but the loss of De Ligt on top of Costa's absence would be a blow to head coach Maurizio Sarri.
