Howedes a doubt for Juve derby clash

Benedikt Howedes is a doubt for Juventus' derby clash with Torino on Saturday. The Germany international, who joined Juve from Schalke on a one-year loan deal in August, suffered a thigh injury in training on Thursday. A statement on Juve's website read: "During today's training session, Benedikt Howedes reported a muscular issue to the left thigh, which will be evaluated in the coming days." Juve go into this weekend's match second in Serie A behind Napoli after beating Fiorentina 1-0 on Wednesday. No time to rest! The derby is just over 48 hours away! #ForzaJuve pic.twitter.com/34KbRMeCtc — JuventusFC (@juventusfcen) September 21, 2017
