Juventus vs Inter | Expected Lineups

The Serie A season resumes after the international break, and fans could not ask for a bigger clash. Juventus and Inter Milan face each other in the legendary Derby d’Italia, a fixture filled with history, rivalry, and decisive moments.

This will be the 254th competitive meeting between the two clubs, making it one of football’s most iconic battles.

Juventus have kicked off their campaign with impressive defensive stability. Two straight clean-sheet victories have set the tone, and the Bianconeri are chasing a rare milestone.

They have never begun consecutive seasons with three straight shutouts, yet that record could be rewritten this weekend. The last time Juventus opened a campaign with three league wins dates back to 2018/19, a year that still lingers in supporters’ memories.

Confidence in Turin remains strong. Juventus have won five home matches in a row, each of the last three by the same 2-0 scoreline. Their form at the Allianz Stadium, combined with recent success against Inter, provides extra belief.

The Bianconeri have lost just one of the last six Serie A meetings between the two sides, while Inter have managed only a single victory across their last 12 league visits to Juventus.

Inter’s response after a setback

Inter Milan’s pursuit of the Scudetto began in style with a resounding 5-0 win over Torino, but optimism was tempered quickly. A surprise 2-1 defeat against Udinese reminded the Nerazzurri of the challenges that lie ahead.

History suggests a recovery is likely, as Inter have not started a season with two losses in their first three games since 2011/12. Their away form adds reassurance. Inter have lost only once in their last six Serie A matches on the road, and when they do win away, clean sheets usually follow. In fact, all of their last ten away league victories came without conceding.

Key players will be decisive. Juventus striker Dušan Vlahović is in fine form, scoring in successive league games and again for Serbia during the break. Inter’s Denzel Dumfries also poses a threat, often striking late in games, including against Juventus last season.

Both clubs enter with different pressures: Juventus chasing history, Inter aiming for redemption. With fierce rivalry and championship ambitions colliding, this Derby d’Italia promises another memorable chapter.
