Paul Pogba, Sami Khedira, Mario Mandzukic and Alvaro Morata start as Juventus visit Olympique Marseille in a pre-season friendly.

This is the Bianconeri’s last test before facing Lazio in the Italian Super Cup in Shanghai next Saturday.

It kicks off at the Stade Velodrome at 18.00 UK time (17.00 GMT).

Max Allegri is without Fernando Llorente, Kwadwo Asamoah, Andrea Barzagli and Giorgio Chiellini.

The two centre-backs are ruled out for three weeks, so will also miss Lazio.

The alternative back four is tested out today with Leonardo Bonucci and Martin Caceres in the middle.

It is the first game in the squad for Mauricio Isla and Roberto Pereyra, who were involved in the Copa America and therefore had later vacations.

Pereyra is thrown straight into the starting XI as a trequartista behind Mandzukic and Morata.

Evidently the Spaniard has been forgiven after Allegri criticised his “bad attitude” when hauling him off 25 minutes into a friendly against Lechia Gdansk.
