It’s a devastating blow for fans who were looking forward to watching him go up against old rival Lionel Messi.
But the 35-year-old’s third Covid-19 test came back positive on Tuesday night – just 24 hours before the match.
Despite the news, he tweeted a picture of himself with his new shaved hair with the caption: “Feeling good and healthy! Forza Juve!”
He will now watch the two European heavyweights inside his own home and will hope to make his return in the Serie A game against Spezia on November 1.
Juve got off to the perfect start in the Champions League with a 2-0 victory over Dynamo Kyiv.
Ronaldo first contracted the virus while on international duty earlier this month.
The Juve star immediately left Portugal’s training camp and flew to Turin in a private air ambulance.
And he recorded his second positive result last Thursday – nine days after his first diagnosis.

He is currently self-isolating in his Turin home and has reportedly displayed no symptoms.
Ronaldo has been sleeping separately from partner Georgina Rodriguez and his four children – who all returned negative tests.
The former Manchester United star has spent his free time topping up his tan in his garden.
