Team News

Inter
Juventus
  • Hakan Calhanoglu and Francesco Acerbi picked up injuries last weekend and will be unavailable for this match.
  • Douglas Luiz has been ruled out for a couple of days with a muscular injury, which means that Kenan Yildiz will start as a 10, making way for Samuel Mbangula on the left wing.

Prediction

  • Inter secured a narrow but deserved win against Roma to keep their second place ahead of the Derby d'Italia with Juventus this week.
  • The Bianconeri are coming off a 1-0 win against Lazio last weekend, that was followed up by a 1-0 defeat against Stuttgart during which the Bianconeri were largely second best and could have conceded more goals without Mattia Perin's crucial saves.
  • Thiago Motta will be eager to bounce back from his first defeat as Juve's manager when he faces Simone Inzaghi in what promises to be an interesting game from a tactical perspective, although the overall technical quality could be significantly affected by injuries to key players and some degree of fatigue in both squads due to an intensive run of fixtures in the space of few days.
  • Kenan Yildiz's positioning between the lines rather than isolated on the left wing could be a key factor but Inter should have enough to win.
