Line-ups: Juventus-Atletico

Mario Suarez gets the nod over Tiago Mendes for Atletico Madrid’s Champions League meeting with Juventus.

Atletico have already qualified from Group A and will do so as winners as long as they avoid a two-goal defeat in Turin.

A draw will be enough to confirm the Old Lady’s place in the competition in 2015, while Juventus will also progress if Olympiacos do anything but beat Malmo.

Diego Simeone has named Mario and Raul Garcia in preference to Tiago and Antoine Griezmann, while Jose Gimenez continues in defence in the absence of the injured Miranda.

Max Allegri has included former Athletic Bilbao striker Fernando Llorente as the partner of Carlos Tevez, with ex-Real Madrid forward Alvaro Morata is among the substitutes.

Juventus: Buffon; Lichtsteiner, Bonucci, Chiellini, Evra; Pereyra, Pirlo, Pogba, Vidal; Tevez, Llorente

Subs: Storari, Ogbonna, Pepe, Padoin, Mattiello, Giovinco, Morata

Atletico: Moya; Juanfran, Godin, Gimenez, Siqueira; Mario, Gabi; Koke, Arda, Raul Garcia; Mandzukic

Subs: Oblak, Jesus Gamez, Tiago, Saul, Rodriguez, Cerci, Griezmann

Referee: William Collum
