Juventus coach Antonio Conte has returned to his trusted 3-5-2 formation for this afternoon's Serie A clash with Genoa.

Conte experimented with a four-man defence in Wednesday's Champions League defeat to Real Madrid, but restores Leonardo Bonucci to a familiar three-man backline today.

Kwadwo Asamoah and Mauricio Isla also come into the starting XI as wing-backs once again, with Claudio Marchsio among those to miss out a result.

Fernando Llorente keeps his place in attack after scoring against Madrid, partnering Carlos Tevez in attack.

Genoa meanwhile have dropped Francelino Matuzalem after he was caught drink-driving in midweek, leaving Alberto Gilardino to lead the line in a lone front role.

Juventus: Buffon; Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini; Isla, Vidal, Pirlo, Pogba, Asamoah; Tevez, Llorente

Genoa: Perin; Manfredini, Portanova, Antonini; Vrsaljko, Kucka, Biondini, Marchese; Bertolacci, Gilardino, Antonini
