Serie A: Juventus vs Inter Milan Live Stream
Preview
The Serie A weekend culminates on Sunday evening at 7:45pm with Juventus hosting Inter Milan in the Derby d’Italia, marking the 181st league encounter between the two Italian powerhouses. With Juventus trailing Inter by only two points in the standings, a win in Turin would propel them above their rivals and back to the top of the table after spending a considerable time in Inter’s shadow.
After resuming their November schedule, Juventus has achieved five consecutive wins, bringing them close to the top spot in Serie A. Max Allegri’s team has established themselves as strong contenders for the title with victories over Torino, Milan, Verona, Fiorentina, and a 2-1 win against Cagliari.
This successful start to the season is the best since their last Scudetto win in 2019-20. The upcoming Derby d’Italia against Inter will be historic, as both teams have at least 29 points each, marking the first time in history for such a scenario by matchday 14. This has led to the emergence of a potential two-horse race, as Napoli and Milan have faced recent struggles.
Inter have won 10 out of 12 league matches this season, with their only surprising loss being to Sassuolo. Throughout their Serie A history, they have achieved this feat only twice before, in 1950 and 2019. Fueled by captain Lautaro Martinez’s goals, the Nerazzurri have won six consecutive matches in all competitions, including a recent 2-1 victory over Frosinone.
They have also defeated Atalanta BC and secured a spot in the Champions League’s last 16 by beating Red Bull Salzburg. With a top-two finish in Group D, coach Simone Inzaghi can now focus on the upcoming Derby d’Italia, rather than being distracted by the next week’s Champions League match with Benfica. Inter, the top scorers in Serie A, are poised to compete for silverware this season, but Juventus will be eager to disrupt their momentum this weekend.
Head-to-head
The Bianconeri have won five out of their last eight league games against Inter. They were victorious in both matches last season, without conceding any goals. The Nerazzurri have only won two of their last 17 away games against Juve in the league, losing 11 times and failing to score in nine of those matches.
Prediction
Ligue 1’s Nice is the only team that has allowed fewer goals than Inter (six) and Juventus (seven) in the top five European leagues this season. Therefore, just one goal could be sufficient to differentiate the teams on Sunday. Although Juventus has closed the gap and typically performs well at home against their old rivals, Inter is expected to come out on top and establish a five-point lead at the summit of Serie A.
