The Italian champion named a 21-man squad that did not include the trio ahead of Wednesday's first leg in Turin.

Marchisio misses out due to bruising in his right knee picked up during the 2-0 home win over Empoli in Serie A last time out.

Sturaro (abdomen) misses out after also starting the match against Empoli, while defender Benatia (gastroenteritis) was an unused substitute.

Star forwards Gonzalo Higuain and Paulo Dybala are among the players named in the squad.
