Juventus are in Serie A action again on Tuesday evening as they play away against Atalanta at the Gewiss Stadium, but head coach Thiago Motta is not involved after his dismissal during the Derby della Mole against Torino last time out.
You can follow the action from Atalanta-Juventus as it unfolds on the Football Italia Liveblog.
Why Thiago Motta is not on the Juventus bench
Both Thiago Motta and his Torino counterpart Paolo Vanoli were sent off during the 1-1 draw between the Bianconeri and the Granata over the weekend.
Both coaches were also handed one-match suspensions, which means that Motta is not in the dugout against Atalanta on Tuesday night, while Vanoli will have to skip his side’s upcoming match against Fiorentina on Sunday.
-Juve’s assistant coach Alexandre Hugeux will be in charge of the team on Tuesday night, as was the case the last time Thiago Motta was suspended back in December, following his red card in the 2-2 draw with his former club Bologna.
