One of the biggest games of the season kicks off tonight when an in-form Juventus host Scudetto hopefuls Inter in the Derby d’Italia.
The match between the Bianconeri and the Nerazzurri kicks off at 19.45 UK time at the Allianz Stadium in Turin.
Juventus have a number of players unavailable for tonight’s Derby d’Italia, with Luca Pellegrini suspended and Leonardo Bonucci in doubt. Out injured are Marley Ake, Kaio Jorge, Federico Chiesa and Weston McKennie.
Things are significantly simpler for Simone Inzaghi, who only has to deal with Stefan de Vrij’s shaky fitness.
The pressure is on for Inter tonight, as a loss would all but bury their hopes of defending their Scudetto this season, whilst Juventus already have a fairly firm grip on 4th.
Probable line-ups for Juventus vs. Inter:
Juventus (4-2-3-1): Szczesny; Danilo, De Ligt, Chiellini, Alex Sandro; Zakaria, Locatelli; Cuadrado, Dybala, Morata; Vlahovic.
Inter (3-5-2): Handanovic; D’Ambrosio, Skriniar, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Brozovic, Calhanoglu, Perisic; Dzeko, Lautaro.
Alex Sandro though 🙁
Juve need a new keeper and 3 new defenders and 3 new midfielders!
The Milan teams are looking good but i fear the title is beyond Juve barring a crazy season end and a juve unbeaten run!
David, isn’t Juventus on a unbeaten run? So all you need is that “crazy season end”, by which you mean the others drop points. Given that you play Inter and a weak Napoli plays Atalanta, that crazy end could very well begin today. Milan‘s last 5 games are the most difficult of the top 4. I would say that Juventus is very much in the title race, unfortunately. Today is a huge match day in this race.
