We're under way at Allianz Stadium.
Hello and welcome to the live commentary of the Champions League Group H clash between Juventus and Chelsea at Allianz Stadium.
Juve began their Champions League campaign with a convincing victory over Malmo on the road, and Massimilano Allegri will be determined for his side to maintain their strong start. After a tough start to their Serie A campaign, the Bianconeri have found their form with back-to-back victories over Spezia and Sampdoria. Allegri's men are still not firing on all cylinders, but will be desperate to put forward a complete performance against the reigning champions.
Chelsea suffered their first setback of the season at the weekend, losing 1-0 to Manchester City in the Premier League. Thomas Tuchel's men will be aiming to bounce back against Juve, although the Bianconeri will be a tough nut to crack on home soil. The Blues began their Champions League crown defence with a 1-0 win over Zenit courtesy of a Romelu Lukaku strike. It might be another tense battle tonight for the English outfit.
JUVENTUS SUBS: Mattia De Sciglio, Giorgio Chiellini, Weston McKennie, Moise Kean, Carlo Pinsoglio, Daniele Rugani, Mattia Perrin, Dejan Kulusevski.
JUVENTUS (4-4-2): Wojciech Szczesny; Danilo, Leonardo Bonucci, Matthijs de Ligt, Alex Sandro; Juan Cuadrado, Rodrigo Bentancur, Manuel Locatelli, Adrien Rabiot; Federico Chiesa, Federico Bernardeschi.
CHELSEA (3-4-3): Edouard Mendy; Andreas Christensen, Thiago Silva, Antonio Rudiger; Cesar Azpilicueta, Jorginho, Mateo Kovacic, Marcos Alonso; Hakim Ziyech, Kai Havertz, Romelu Lukaku.
CHELSEA SUBS: Kepa Arrizabalaga, Timo Werner, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Marcus Bettinelli, Trevor Chalobah, Saul Niguez, Ross Barkley, Callum Hudson-Odoi, Ben Chilwell, Malang Sarr.
Thomas Tuchel will not be hurried into changes at the break. His side have controlled possession and need to find their patience in the final third rather than rushing themselves, which has caused problems at the other end of the field.
Juventus take on Torino in the Turin derby in their next outing on Saturday on the road. Chelsea return to Stamford Bridge to face Southampton in the Premier League on the same day.
Thanks for joining our commentary this evening. Until next time, goodbye.
