Torino midfielder Afriyie Acquah is set to be handed a starting role in Sunday's Derby della Mole against Kwadwo Asamoah's Juventus at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino.

Coach Walter Mazzarri will recall the Ghana international who missed last week's 2-0 win over Udinese due to a one-match ban.

Acquah will provide more defensive cover in Joel Obi and Rincon and will partner Danielle Baselli

The 26-year-old has made 11 appearances and scored one goal this term in the Serie A.
