Juventus returned to Serie A action with three points on Saturday and now turns its attention back to UEFA Champions League play this Tuesday.
Weston McKennie will be among those fighting to start in Thiago Motta’s lineup as the Bianconeri faces Bundesliga side Stuttgart. McKennie, who did not feature in U.S. men’s national team action this month, was also saved as Juventus defeated Lazio 1-0 on Saturday. However, the 26-year-old should be back in contention to play as the Serie A side aims to continue their unbeaten run in all competitions.
McKennie remains an important piece of the Juventus squad and will be expected to deliver a solid showing in Turin on Tuesday evening. Should McKennie play, it will mark his fourth-ever meeting with Stuttgart following his time in Germany with Schalke.
Elsewhere in Europe, Christian Pulisic and AC Milan host Club Brugge. The PSV trio of Richie Ledezma, Malik Tillman, and Ricardo Pepi visit Paris Saint-Germain.
In England, Brenden Aaronson and Leeds United host Watford. Luca Koleosho and Burnley take on Hull City.
In Mexico, Liga MX play continues with Cade Cowell and Frankie Amaya headlining the contingent.

Pulisic scored but then in the second half he left with a twisted knee. At least he was able to walk off unassisted, albeit with a limp. I think it was Musah who almost got an assist, but the person who scored was offsides.
Watching first half of this AC Milan Brugge game and Milan are literally avoiding to pass the ball to Pulisic. You can see his frustration. Fofana particularly not even looking his way. It’s quite annoying to watch.
