Juventus Player Ratings vs Inter: Adzic Steals Show in Breathless Derby d’Italia ............ Juventus (3-4-2-1) Michele Di Gregorio – 5/10 The Italian goalkeeper will be frustrated for conceding twice from outside of the box. While he was powerless to stop the volley, there’s an argument he could’ve done more for the first. Lloyd Kelly – 8/10 Despite being criticized for his recent performances, the English defender looked rock-solid today. In addition to scoring the opener, he fared well against the likes of Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram. Gleison Bremer – 9/10 The Brazilian has been the cornerstone of Juventus’ defense since returning from injury, but he was much more today. Indeed, he was the creative force of his team, setting up both first-half goals. Federico Gatti – 6/10 ............ Weston McKennie – 6/10 ............ Khephren Thuram – 7/10 It was a quiet evening for the French midfielder. Sometimes erratic in his decision-making, he rarely influenced the game, but he stepped up when Juventus needed him the most, scoring a crucial header to level the score. Manuel Locatelli – 6/10 ............ Pierre Kalulu – 6/10 ............ Teun Koopmeiners – 5/10 The Dutch midfielder played in an advanced position today and couldn’t make an impact. A first-half booking was his most noticeable contribution to the game. Kenan Yildiz – 9/10 After a relatively underwhelming start to the match, the Turkish prodigy grew into the contest, scoring a crucial goal toward the end of the first half to restore Juve’s lead. Dusan Vlahovic – 3/10 Handed a rare chance to start after scoring in the first two Serie A outings, the Serbian superstar had an evening to forget. ............ Substitutions Lois Openda – 5/10 Vasilije Adzic – 9/10 Juan Cabal – 6/10 Jonathan David – 5/10 Joao Mario – 6/10 .

Adzic’s late strike helps Juventus win thrilling derby against Inter Milan Juventus and Inter Milan delivered another enthralling chapter of the Derby d’Italia as the Bianconeri emerged 4-3 winners in a pulsating encounter. The result extended Juventus’ fine start to the season and underlined their ability to prevail in high-stakes contests. ............ Juventus struck the opening blow less than fifteen minutes into the match when Lloyd Kelly converted after an intelligent pass from Gleison Bremer. The early breakthrough delighted the home supporters but also sparked Inter into life. The visitors responded by increasing their intensity, pressing high and looking to exploit wide areas with crosses and forward runs. Their persistence was rewarded on the half-hour mark as Hakan Çalhanoğlu fired home the equaliser, bringing the game to life and reminding Juventus that Inter remained a constant threat. Yet Bremer continued to influence proceedings, turning provider once more with a precise delivery that Kenan Yildiz finished clinically just before half-time, restoring Juve’s advantage at the interval. ............ The second half saw both sides commit numbers forward in search of the next decisive moment. Çalhanoğlu again delivered for Inter, levelling the scoreline with his second of the evening. The contest then tilted in the visitors’ favour when Marcus Thuram put them ahead for the first time, fuelling hopes of an away victory. That optimism was short-lived, however, as his brother Khephren Thuram struck only minutes later, heading Juventus back on level terms and adding another twist to the derby narrative. With the game finely poised, Igor Tudor made attacking substitutions, signalling his intent to chase all three points rather than settle for another draw reminiscent of last season’s 4-4 thriller. The decision paid off when substitutes combined for the winning goal. Jonathan David, full of energy after coming on, set up Vasilije Adžić, who calmly applied the finish to secure Juventus’ dramatic 4-3 triumph. ............ .

Chiellini: ‘Bremer a better Juventus defender than I was’ Juventus director Giorgio Chiellini is confident Dusan Vlahovic can have his say starting against Inter today, while insisting Gleison Bremer is a ‘better’ defender than he was. ............ “Igor (Tudor) saw Vlahovic in good shape, he’s fired up and it shows, so today he will start. We have many alternatives in attack this season, we will need them all over the course of the campaign, and are happy with the squad that we’ve got.” ............ “We can play in a few different ways. It’s very difficult to find someone who is a facsimile of Yildiz,” explained Chiellini. “Openda can play with another striker or as a centre-forward, he has different characteristics, and that is why we chose him.” ............ Juve have not conceded at all this season, and a lot of that has to do with the return of Bremer from his anterior cruciate ligament injury. Chiellini was asked who was the better defender, him or Bremer? “Bremer. I always loved him, you can ask him, I said it to him too.” .

Juventus vs Inter Milan: Preview and Prediction Italian football comes to a standstill on Saturday evening as the Derby d’Italia takes centre stage at the Allianz Stadium, with Juventus hosting Inter Milan in one of the most storied fixtures in Serie A history. Both sides enter the clash with ambitions of reclaiming the Scudetto from Napoli, although they arrive in contrasting moods. Juventus have started the campaign perfectly, collecting maximum points from their opening fixtures, while Inter faltered just before the international break and already find themselves chasing. Juventus have shown early signs of momentum under Igor Tudor, who begins his first full season at the helm. Wins over Parma Calcio and Genoa have given the Bianconeri a flawless start, easing concerns after last season’s off-field turmoil. Tudor, who steadied the ship after replacing Thiago Motta late last term, now has his sights set on loftier goals, with a genuine push for the Scudetto not out of the question. History also favours the Old Lady in this rivalry, particularly at home. Juventus have lost just one of their last 11 league meetings with Inter in Turin, and last season’s dramatic encounters only added spice to the narrative. The October 2024 clash at San Siro produced a stunning 4-4 draw, with Kenan Yildiz scoring twice late on, while Francisco Conceicao struck the winner in February’s reverse fixture. ............ Team News & Tactics Juventus Juventus face a few selection dilemmas heading into the Derby d’Italia. In attack, Jonathan David has started brightly for both club and country, putting pressure on Igor Tudor to keep him in the lineup. Meanwhile, Dusan Vlahovic, despite ongoing uncertainty around his contract situation, has made an impact from the bench with goals against both Parma and Genoa. ] Summer arrival Lois Openda is another option to lead the line, giving the Bianconeri enviable depth in forward areas. On the downside, winger Francisco Conceicao is a major doubt after withdrawing from international duty with Portugal due to a muscular injury, and midfielder Fabio Miretti remains sidelined with a thigh problem. Suspension also plays a role in Tudor’s plans. Andrea Cambiaso will serve the second match of a two-game ban following his red card for violent conduct on the opening day. His absence leaves the wing-back slots up for grabs, with Joao Mario and Filip Kostic likely contenders, alongside the versatile duo of Pierre Kalulu and Weston McKennie. Juventus are expected to line up in a 3-4-2-1 formation. Michele Di Gregorio will start in goal, shielded by a three-man defence of Federico Gatti, Bremer, and Lloyd Kelly. Out wide, Pierre Kalulu is set to operate as the right wing-back, while João Mário takes the opposite flank on the left. In midfield, Khephren Thuram will provide dynamism alongside Manuel Locatelli, who anchors the side with his control and distribution. Just behind the striker, Teun Koopmeiners and rising star Kenan Yildiz are expected to operate as dual attacking midfielders, supporting Jonathan David, who should spearhead the Juventus attack against Inter Milan. Probable Lineup (3-4-2-1): Di Gregorio; Gatti, Bremer, Kelly; Kalulu, Thuram, Locatelli, Mario; Koopmeiners, Yildiz; David Inter Milan ............ Probable Lineup (3-5-2): Sommer; Akanji, Acerbi, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Sucic, Dimarco; Thuram, Martinez Key Stats Juventus have defeated Inter Milan 88 times, more than any other club in Serie A history, highlighting their long-standing supremacy in this fixture. Three of the last four league meetings between Juventus and Inter Milan in the first half of the season have ended in draws, showing how closely contested early-season clashes tend to be. Inter Milan have failed to win in 11 of their last 12 league visits to the Allianz Stadium against Juventus (W1 D3 L8). Their only victory came in April 2022 via a Hakan Calhanoglu penalty. This is only the third time in history Juventus and Inter will face each other within the opening three matchdays of a Serie A campaign. The previous instances were in 1939 (Inter won 4-0) and 2013 (a 1-1 draw). Juventus have started the 2025-26 season with back-to-back clean sheets, and could register three straight shutouts in their first three league games for the first time in their history. ............ Prediction Juventus 2-1 Inter Milan Juventus’s home record against Inter Milan and their sharp early-season form make them slight favourites, though Inter’s attacking firepower ensures this will not be straightforward. Expect a tightly contested battle where the Bianconeri’s defensive organisation could make the difference. The Hard Tackle predicts a 2-1 win for Igor Tudor and his charges. .
