(Reuters) - Juventus forward Federico Chiesa will miss the Coppa Italia quarter-final with Frosinone, but is expected to return for their next league game, manager Massimiliano Allegri said on Wednesday.

Chiesa missed the 2-1 win at Salernitana last weekend with a knee injury, and while he sits out the Coppa clash on Thursday, Juve's next league game against Sassuolo is not until Tuesday.
