Edon Zhegrova
JUV
Dishes out assist versus Atalanta
Zhegrova assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (two accurate) and two corners in 19 minutes in Sunday's 2-0 victory against Atalanta.
Analysis: Zhegrova had his second productive stint off the bench in a row, linking up with Gleison Bremer on the final goal for his side. He'll likely continue backing up Francisco Conceicao. He's ineligible to play in the UEFA Europa League. He has had a brace and has tallied five shots (two on target), eight chances created and eight crosses (five accurate) in five cameos.
Scores brace off bench
Zhegrova scored two goals to go with three shots (two on goal), three crosses (two accurate) and one corner in Sunday's 3-2 loss to Sassuolo.
Analysis: Zhegrova transformed Juventus' attack after entering on the hour mark, scoring two separate equalizers during a frantic finish. He first brought Juventus level before responding to Kieron Bowie's late goal with his second, converting Randal Kolo Muani's setup to make it 2-2. Sassuolo ultimately scored again with the final kick, but the brace opened Zhegrova's scoring account for the season after he came off the bench in each of his first three Serie A appearances and should strengthen his case for increased playing time.
Inserted late in Milan clash
Zhegrova (undisclosed) had one corner, two clearances and two passes in a short appearance off the bench in Sunday's 1-1 draw with Milan.
Analysis: Zhegrova was deployed two minutes before stoppage time and didn't do a lot, but he was on the pitch for the late equalizer. He'll continue backing up Francisco Conceicao for the foreseeable future, but Nicolas Gonzalez will also be in the mix once Weston McKennie (undisclosed) returns. He has taken one corner in back-to-back outings, accumulating three and adding one off-target shot, two chances created and two crosses (one accurate).
Fit for Milan fixture
Zhegrova (undisclosed) is available for Sunday's clash with Milan.
Analysis: Zhegrova has overcome a minor muscular problem and will return from a one-game absence. He'll most likely back up Francisco Conceicao as usual. He logged 21 minutes in the opener, tallying one off-target shot, two chances created and two crosses (one accurate).
Ruled out for Parma game
Zhegrova won't be involved Saturday because of late muscle fatigue, Juventus relayed.
Analysis: Zhegrova is suffering from an ailment and isn't a lock to stay at the club past deadline day, so he won't be risked in this one. Nicolas Gonzalez and Jeremie Boga will pick up the slack behind Francisco Conceicao on the right wing.
