Teun Koopmeiners - Paces team in crosses versus Napoli Koopmeiners had one shot (zero on goal), eight crosses (two accurate) and six corners and drew two fouls in Sunday's 2-0 victory over Napoli.

Impact Koopmeiners got the call over Pape Sarr and padded his stats through a host of set pieces, matching his season high in corner kicks. He has sent in at least one cross in his last five appearances (four starts), piling up 25 (five accurate) and adding five shots (two on target), five chances created and 16 corners over that span.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Douglas Luiz - Very productive in Napoli bout Luiz had one shot (zero on goal), seven crosses (three accurate) and five corners and created five scoring chances in Sunday's 2-0 victory against Napoli.

Impact Luiz was the main creator for his side, leading it in key passes and setting a new season high, although he wasn't part of the two goals despite his success in the final third. He has registered one shot (one total on target), at least one chance created, totaling 10, and multiple crosses, amassing 21 (five accurate) in the last five contests. This was also his fifth outing on the trot with one or more interceptions and clearances, for a total of eight and 10, respectively.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Pierre Kalulu - Sound performance against Napoli Kalulu had three clearances, two interceptions and one off-target shot and created one scoring chance in Sunday's 2-0 win against Napoli.

Impact Kalulu manned a pair of different positions throughout the game and picked up a small amount of starts on both ends. He has notched one or more clearances in five consecutive tilts, totaling 16 and contributing to two clean sheets in that stretch. This was also his third game in a row with one or more interceptions (five total). Instead, Kalulu failed to swing in a cross for the first time in the season and ended a six-game string with at least one tackle.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Bremer - Leads defensive effort versus Napoli Bremer had four clearances, one tackle and two interceptions and took two shots (one on target) in Sunday's 2-0 victory against Napoli.

Impact Bremer did his part in stopping the opponent, helping Juventus secure their second clean sheet in three games and the fifth in the season. He has recorded at least four clearances in eight tilts in a row, averaging 39 and adding eight interceptions and nine shots (two on target) over that span, with one goal. Moreover, this marked his fifth outing in a row with one or more tackles, for a total of six (three won). On the other hand, Bremer halted a four-match streak with at least one block in this one.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Andrea Cambiaso - Collects point in Napoli game Cambiaso assisted once to go with two chances created and one block in eight minutes in Sunday's 2-0 victory against Napoli.

Impact Cambiaso came off the bench after starting in the previous three matches, but he made a stat sheet by feeding Jeremie Boga on a late goal, tallying his second helper so far. Juan Cabal was picked over him in this one to replace Zeki Celik (thigh). Cambiaso has created one or more chances in six straight matches, racking up nine and adding two shots (zero on target), four interceptions and four interceptions in that stretch. Instead, he snapped lengthy streaks of games with at last two crosses and one tackle.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Edon Zhegrova - Picks up assist in Napoli clash Zhegrova assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two corners in 31 minutes in Sunday's 2-0 win over Napoli.

Impact Zhegrova was influential off the bench, bringing some energy and playmaking and finding Jeremie Boga with a long pass before the teammate scored from outside the box. It's his second assist of the season. He has yet to start despite constantly faring well as a sub. Zhegrova has notched at least one shot, amassing 15 (eight on target), and one cross, totaling 19 (seven accurate), in his last six showings, with two goals. Additionally, this was his third cameo in a row with one or more key passes (six total).

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Jeremie Boga - Finds the target versus Napoli Boga scored one goal to go with two shots (one on target), two tackles (one won) and three crosses (one accurate) in 18 minutes in Sunday's 2-0 win versus Napoli.

Impact Boga sealed the deal late by putting a potent effort in the bottom corner, netting his maiden goal of the season. He's working his way to full fitness after a significant thigh injury and should stay involved at least as a sub while Juventus deal with a pair of absences at the position. Boga has fired at least one shot in three consecutive matches, totaling four (one on target) and adding one key pass, six crosses (two accurate) and five tackles (three won) over that span.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Kerim Alajbegovic - Scores great goal versus Napoli Alajbegovic scored one goal to go with four shots (two on target), four crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-0 win over Napoli.

Impact Alajbegovic unlocked the crunch match with a pristine lefty cross-shot from distance, bagging his first goal in Serie A play and his second in the season. He had been hit or miss and had inconsistent minutes in previous games. This showing should lead to more playing time, especially with Francisco Conceicao (shoulder) and Nicolas Gonzalez (calf) currently unavailable. Alajbegovic has recorded 11 shots (four on target), two chances created and 11 crosses (four accurate) in the last six matches (four starts).

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Jeff Ekhator - Unused sub in Napoli game Ekhator (thigh) didn't feature in Sunday's 2-0 win over Napoli.

Impact Ekhator returned to the squad list but will have to wait to make his seasonal debut with Juventus, as he got injured twice after joining from Genoa. He'll be the top deputy up front if the coach keeps using Randal Kolo Muani and Nick Woltemade together.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Guglielmo Vicario - Blanks Napoli on Sunday Vicario had one save and kept a clean sheet in Sunday's 2-0 win versus Napoli.

Impact Vicario had just one save, but it was a key one, as it kept Napoli from getting an early lead, and he was very reactive on a close-range header. He has kept three clean sheets in the last eight matches, making 11 saves and giving up nine goals. Up next, Juventus will face AZ Alkmaar away in the UEFA Champions League on Thursday and then Fiorentina on Sunday.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Weston McKennie - Leaves at halftime versus Napoli McKennie registered one shot (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and two chances created in the first half of Sunday's 2-0 win over Napoli before departing due to an adductor...

Impact McKennie had a pretty nondescript performance, sending in at least one cross for the fourth straight match, before bowing out because of a thigh problem. He'll need to be evaluated before the AZ Alkmaar and Fiorentina matches. He was replaced by Federico Gatti in a rather conservative substitution, with a tactical switch.

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Jeff Ekhator - Selected for Napoli clash Ekhator (thigh) has been inserted in Juventus' squad list for Sunday's game versus Napoli.

Impact Ekhator has yet to appear in this campaign due to two consecutive thigh injuries. He'll deputize for Randal Kolo Muani and Nick Woltemade. He scored three goals and logged 20 shots (five on target), 10 chances created and nine crosses (zero accurate in 30 displays (nine starts) with Genoa in 2025/2026.

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Douglas Luiz - Takes step back in Genoa tilt Luiz recorded one shot (zero on goal), five crosses (zero accurate) and six corners and created one scoring chance in Wednesday's 2-0 defeat to Genoa.

Impact Luiz padded his stats through a host of set pieces, setting a new season high in corners, but he wasn't as effective as in the previous game in a poor collective showing for Juventus. He has notched at least one key pass, accumulating five, two crosses, totaling 14 (two accurate), and exactly one shot (one total on target) in the past four contests. Furthermore, this was his fourth appearance in a row with at least one interception and one clearance, totaling six and seven, respectively.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Pierre Kalulu - Fills stat sheet in Genoa game Kalulu had five clearances, five crosses (one accurate) and two chances created and won two of three tackles in Wednesday's 2-0 defeat against Genoa.

Impact Kalulu had an excellent game from a statistical standpoint, co-leading his club in deliveries, but he was too soft and had a pair of wrong reads on the second goal, which ended up deciding the contest. Kalulu has launched at least one cross in 12 straight fixtures, amassing 40 (10 accurate), contributing to five clean sheets and 13 key passes and 12 interceptions in that stretch. Additionally, this marked his sixth display on the trot with one or more tackles, for a total of 18 (nine won). He also matched his season high in clearances and has put up at least one in the last four matches (13 total).
