Kuipers to officiate Gladbach game

Bjorn Kuipers will be the man in the middle for Juventus’ fourth Champions League group game of 2015/16 when they face Borussia Monchengladbach on Tuesday evening.

This is the third time that Kuipers will officiate a match involving the Bianconeri after running the rule over two Europa League ties: a 1-1 draw against Fiorentina two years ago and a 4-1 reverse away to Fulham in 2010/11.

The record for Italian teams in games refereed by the 42-year-old reads: two victories, four draws and four defeats.
