  1. Motta responds to talks about Yildiz’s struggles on the wing Kenan Yildiz has found himself adapting to a new role as a winger at Juventus this season, a shift prompted by the club’s depth in midfield following the summer transfer window. Initially, the young Turkiye international had shown promise playing as an attacking midfielder behind striker Dusan Vlahovic. However, with the arrival of new midfield talent like Teun Koopmeiners, the central attacking role has become highly competitive. As a result, Yildiz has been deployed more frequently on the left wing, where he is expected to cut inside and utilize his strong right foot to create scoring opportunities. ............ Addressing these concerns, Juventus manager Thiago Motta stated that Yildiz’s development is on track while acknowledging the need for improvement. Motta said: “Yildiz is fine, he needs to improve in all aspects of the game, but like everyone else. He must always be connected to the team, from the defensive phase to concentration. He is a young player, but already a great player that we must exploit in the best way, both as a winger and as a midfielder. However, I am convinced that great players can play anywhere and very well.” Motta’s remarks underline his belief in Yildiz’s versatility, suggesting that the 18-year-old possesses the talent to excel in multiple roles. ............

  2. Yildiz admits number 10 shirt is a big deal and he must prove he deserves it Kenan Yildiz has officially inherited the prestigious Juventus number 10 shirt following his contract extension with the club, a move that underscores the faith Juventus has in his potential. The number 10 has a rich history at the Allianz Stadium, being worn by legendary players such as Alessandro Del Piero and Paulo Dybala, who both left a lasting legacy during their time with the Bianconeri. This decision to award Yildiz the number comes in the wake of Paul Pogba’s ban, marking a significant step in the young player’s career. ............ Acknowledging the weight of the number 10 shirt, Yildiz spoke candidly about what it means to wear it. He stated: “The number 10 of Juventus? You have two sides of the coin to have a number like that. It’s a really, really heavy number. You have the confidence side, the pride side, but then you also have the side where you have to show something for the people who gave you that honour. It was nice to play with it because, on the pitch if it gives you the feeling that you can do something, you know?” ............

  3. Serie A Preview: Inter vs Juventus – Team News, Line-ups & Prediction One of the most highly anticipated fixtures in the Serie A calendar pits arch-rivals Inter and Juventus against each other on Sunday late afternoon. Stadio Giuseppe Meazza forms the backdrop for the 252nd iteration of the famous Derby d’Italia. Though we’re still early in the season, this contest has all the makings of a Scudetto six-pointer. Only one point separates the two Serie A powerhouses ahead of the kick-off, with second-placed Inter also trailing pacesetters Napoli by two. ............ Match Preview Inter Except for a frustrating 2-1 defeat to fierce rivals Milan in September’s Derby della Madonnina, Inter have reigned supreme in four other competitive home matches this season. Indeed, Inzaghi’s men have emerged triumphant from all four, overcoming their rivals by multi-goal margins. ............ Low scoring has been a recurring theme in this fixture. Eight of the last nine Serie A meetings between Inter and Juventus have featured under 2.5 goals, suggesting whoever gets on the scoresheet first would likely avoid defeat. With six first-half goals in four home league outings, the Nerazzurri are decent value to break the deadlock. Juventus Motta has based his early Serie A success in charge of Juventus on a formidable defensive line. While his men have yet to keep a clean sheet in the Champions League, they’ve only conceded once in eight Serie A matches thus far. It makes them the best defensive side in Europe’s traditional top-five leagues this season. Furthermore, they’re the only team to have registered a shutout on all four top-flight travels in 2024/25. However, inconsistency in the front of goal has been the visitors’ Achilles heel. That’s perhaps best illustrated by three scoring blanks in eight Serie A contests. On the bright side, only one of those scoreless outings came on the road. Discipline has become a significant problem for Juventus, as evidenced by three red cards picked up across their last four competitive games. They cannot afford another ill-tempered showing if they’re to uphold their fantastic H2H record against Inter in Serie A (W87, D46, L49). Team News After losing Francesco Acerbi and Hakan Calhanoglu to injuries in a 1-0 win at Roma last weekend, Inter suffered another setback in Switzerland. Carlos Augusto sustained a muscle strain, joining long-term absentee Tajon Buchanan on the sidelines. Meanwhile, Kristjan Asllani returns to the fold for the first time after the international break. On the other hand, Juventus cannot call upon the services of Paul Pogba, Glesion Bremer, Arkadiusz Milik, and Nicolas Gonzalez. Question marks still hang over the heads of summer arrivals Douglas Luiz and Teun Koopmeiners, with the latter still recovering from a broken rib. Inter vs Juventus Potential Lineups Inter (3-5-2): Yann Sommer; Benjamin Pavard, Stefan de Vrij, Alessandro Bastoni; Matteo Darmian, Davide Frattesi, Nicolo Barella, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Federico Dimarco; Marcus Thuram, Lautaro Martinez. Juventus (4-3-3): Michele Di Gregorio; Andrea Cambiaso, Pierre Kalulu, Federico Gatti, Juan Cabal; Weston McKennie, Manuel Locatelli, Nicolo Fagioli; Francisco Conceicao, Dusan Vlahovic, Kenan Yildiz. Inter vs Juventus Prediction Inzaghi’s offensive-minded football contrasts Motta’s safety-first approach. But the Inter manager isn’t a stranger to tactical flexibility when needed. Therefore, another low-scoring stalemate is a distinct possibility. Prediction: Draw Read more -> https://cultofcalcio.com/serie-a-preview-inter-vs-juventus-team-news-line-ups-prediction/
  4. Con "all'estero" intendevo infatti l'Atletico Madrid che non ha accettato l'errore come invece avviene in Italia dove si fanno polemiche ma non si agisce a livello istituzionale.
  5. Preview: Inter Milan vs. Juventus - prediction, team news, lineups Italy will come to a standstill on Sunday evening, as Serie A heavyweights Inter Milan and Juventus step into the ring for an eagerly-awaited Derby d'Italia. The teams convene at San Siro, with reigning champions Inter leading a revived Juve by one point in the standings. Match preview Reprising a rivalry that began back in November 1909, the two clubs with most Scudetti to their name in Serie A history meet again this weekend, with Inter aiming to keep old foes Juventus at arm's length following a brief period of supremacy. ............ Inter now go into Sunday's game having won two of their last four league meetings with Juve in Milan - as many as throughout the previous 11. After a long period of dominance dried up, Juventus have managed just two wins from six against Inter in Serie A - but they can head for San Siro as the only team still unbeaten this season. The Turin club last enjoyed such status after eight rounds back in 2019, when they last went on to claim the Scudetto, and talk of a challenge to both Milan clubs and Napoli for the 2024-25 title is now growing. Following last week's 1-0 defeat of 10-man Lazio, they have conceded just one league goal so far, and that success took them to the Serie A summit until former boss Antonio Conte steered his Napoli side back above the Bianconeri. New coach Thiago Motta - who once starred for Inter during his playing days - has already transformed the feel of a squad that had endured some relatively tough times over recent years. His team have taken seven points from nine available away from home, following a prior eight-game winless run on the road; furthermore, Juventus are the only club across Europe's top five leagues yet to concede a goal on their travels. Motta finally suffered a first setback on Tuesday, though, with a 1-0 home loss to Stuttgart in the Champions League that saw the Bundesliga side strike deep into second-half stoppage time. Nonetheless, keen to test himself against another highly-rated tactician, Inzaghi, he now switches focus to meeting his old club in the Derby d'Italia. Team News© Imago ............ Meanwhile, Juventus may be missing Douglas Luiz, who pulled out of the warm-up against Stuttgart due to a thigh problem, while summer signings Teun Koopmeiners (rib) and Nico Gonzalez (thigh) are still ruled out. Having served a UEFA suspension in the Champions League, first-choice goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio returns between the posts, but no change is expected in the final third: Turkish teenager Kenan Yildiz and on-loan winger Francisco Conceicao should support Dusan Vlahovic up front. Vlahovic (15) and Thuram (13) - whose brother Khephren Thuram plays for Juve - top the Serie A goal charts for 2024; however, the Serbian striker has previously played seven league games at San Siro without scoring. Inter Milan possible starting lineup: Sommer; Pavard, De Vrij, Bastoni; Darmian, Frattesi, Barella, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Thuram, Martinez Juventus possible starting lineup: Di Gregorio; Cambiaso, Kalulu, Gatti, Cabal; McKennie, Locatelli, Fagioli; Conceicao, Vlahovic, Yildiz We say: Inter Milan 0-0 Juventus This latest instalment of the Derby d'Italia will be a battle of trophy-winning experience against success-hungry youth: Inter have the highest average age in Serie A this season (29 years and 255 days), while Juventus have the second-lowest, more than five years younger. Both teams are more than capable of keeping clean sheets - in fact, it is written deep within Juve's DNA - so a safety-first stalemate could disappoint an expectant San Siro.

  6. Inter vs Juventus referee already under pressure as Atletico file complaint to UEFA Marco Guida, the referee appointed for Inter-Juventus is already under pressure as furious Atletico Madrid have filed a complaint to UEFA following the Italian official’s controversial penalty decision in their latest Champions League fixture. La Liga giants Atletico Madrid have filed a complaint to UEFA against Guida’s decision to give their opponent, Lille, a controversial penalty kick during Wednesday’s Champions League game at the Wanda Metropolitano. ............ The Colchoneros’ boss, Diego Simeone, a former Inter and Lazio midfielder, called Guida’s decision “hallucinating.” ............ This coming Sunday, Guida will officiate Inter-Juventus, a match between Serie A title contenders and a fixture that has often caused referee controversies in recent years.

  7. Will Douglas Luiz be fit enough to face Inter Milan? Douglas Luiz’s absence from Juventus’ Champions League clash against Stuttgart due to a muscle issue has significantly complicated the Bianconeri’s ongoing injury crisis this season. The Brazilian midfielder, who has struggled to some degree this season, missed the match, which proved critical. ............ As Motta eagerly awaits updates on Luiz’s fitness, the midfielder will not be ready in time for the Inter match. This news comes as a blow to a side already coping with injuries to key players, including Teun Koopmeiners, who is also sidelined. Luiz was expected to seize the opportunity to take on a more prominent role in the starting XI, especially with other midfielders unavailable. His ongoing absence is disappointing for both him and the club, as he had hoped to establish himself as a crucial part of the team. ............ The upcoming match against Inter will not only serve as a test of the team’s resilience but also as a pivotal moment for Motta to showcase his managerial skills amid adversity.

  8. Who should start on the left-wing for Juventus against Inter Milan Thiago Motta is facing a challenging situation ahead of Juventus’ crucial clash against Inter Milan this weekend. The Bianconeri are determined to bounce back after their midweek Champions League loss to Stuttgart, a match in which they were outclassed. Facing the defending Serie A champions, Inter Milan, poses a significant test, especially with Juventus dealing with injury concerns and the need to avoid consecutive defeats. ............ Motta’s primary dilemma revolves around filling key positions in the lineup, with the left wing being a focal point. His options for that role include Samuel Mbangula and Kenan Yildiz. ............ Motta is expected to move Yildiz from the left wing to a more central role, where he can operate behind striker Dusan Vlahovic, thus creating space for Mbangula to start on the left. With the team’s depth being tested, Motta’s approach to this game will be crucial, especially in addressing the lack of creativity and balance that was evident in the defeat to Stuttgart. The tactical changes may offer more flexibility in attack, allowing Yildiz to influence the game centrally while Mbangula adds pace and width on the left. ............

  9. Marcus Thuram reveals who his dad will support when Juventus faces Inter Milan Lilian Thuram is set to experience a unique and emotional moment this Sunday when Juventus faces Inter Milan in the highly anticipated Derby d’Italia. As a former Juventus player, Lilian finds himself in the difficult position of having to choose between supporting his two sons, Marcus and Khephren, who represent opposing clubs in this significant match-up. ............ This match will bring at least three Thurams to the San Siro, with Marcus and Khephren likely to start and Lilian watching from the stands. Amidst the family dynamics, Marcus shared his thoughts on which team he believes his father will support during the match. He said: “It will be a great match, the whole family will be at San Siro. My dad will definitely support Juventus; he played there”. This statement underscores the bond Lilian has with Juventus, a club where he spent significant years of his career. ............

  10. Udinese is prepared to block Juventus from signing their player in January Juventus is actively seeking to strengthen its squad as the club eyes potential reinforcements for the attacking positions. With Dusan Vlahovic serving as their primary striker, the Bianconeri have found themselves in a precarious situation due to Arkadiusz Milik’s injury. ............ Among the names on Juventus’ radar is Lorenzo Lucca, currently making waves at Udinese. Lucca, who previously showcased his talents in Serie B, has caught the attention of Juve scouts due to his impressive form. So far this season, he has netted five goals in ten appearances across all competitions, solidifying his reputation as one of the standout players in the league. ............ Despite Juventus’ interest, Udinese considers Lucca a pivotal part of their team and is reluctant to part ways with him, particularly during the January transfer window. ............

  11. Rocchi prendi e porta a casa. All'estero si lamentano ufficialmernte dei tuoi arbitri scarsi ...... o corrotti? L'unica spiegazione possibile é che il Lille abbia pagato sottobanco Guida e Pairetto per farsi aiutare. Non capisco come si possa comprendere questo doppio errore. L'Atletico ha perso dei soldi essendo stato sconfitto "grazie" ai due arbitri italiani. Intanto Rocchi dovrebbe sospendere Guida e non fargli arbitrare il derby d'Italia. In ogni caso non sará sereno e rischia di fare ulteriori errori. Ma in Italia, gli arbitri non si toccano e si tende a far finire sempre tutto a tarallucci e vino. All'estero si ragiona in maniera un pó diversa. Sono perfettamente d'accordo con la denuncia alla Uefa da parte dell'Atletico Madrid. E se viene fuori qualcosa, che i due vengano radiati.
  12. How will Juventus lineup against Inter amidst injury problems? This Sunday, Inter and Juventus and lock horns at San Siro for the first Derby d’Italia of the season. However, Thiago Motta will have limited options at his disposal due to the growing number of injuries among his ranks. ............ Michele Di Gregorio will return in goal despite Mattia Perin’s superb heroics in the losing effort against Stuttgart. ............ Federico Gatti should reignite his partnership with Pierre Kalulu, while Nicolo Savona maintains his role at right-back and Andrea Cambiaso replaces Juan Cabal on the opposite side. In the middle of the park, Manuel Locatelli should reclaim his spot in front of the defense following his decent cameo in Europe. ............ Khephren Thuram could earn his third start in a row, while Weston McKennie features in a more advanced role due to Koopmeiners’ absence. Finally, Dusan Vlahovic will lead the line as he remains the solitary option for the role in Milik’s continued absence. The Serbian will be supported by Francisco Conceicao and Kenan Yildiz on the wings. . Juventus Probable XI (4-2-3-1): Di Gregorio; Savona, Gatti, Kalulu, Cambiaso; Locatelli, Thuram; Conceicao, McKennie, Yildiz; Vlahovic Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/how-will-juventus-lineup-against-inter-amidst-injury-problems/
  13. Juventus eye Udinese striker as potential Dusan Vlahovic’s backup Juventus are currently on the lookout for Dusan Vlahovic’s backup after Arkadiusz Milik’s recovery time proved longer than expected, and they reportedly set their eyes on one of Serie A’s most prolific Italian strikers. ............ Udinese striker Lorenzo Lucca is among the players followed by Juventus, who are reportedly monitoring his progress before considering whether to make a move for him in the winter. The Old Lady’s football director Cristiano Giuntoli rates Lucca highly since his time at Serie B outfit Pisa, and the name of the 24-year-old has remained on his wishlist, as he considers him an ideal reinforcement for Juventus. However, Udinese paid almost €9m to make the striker’s move to the Bluenergy Stadium from Pisa permanent last summer, and they’d like to keep him at least until the end of the season to see his price tag raise. Therefore, only an extremely lucrative offer could persuade them to do otherwise. ............ He’s currently the third-best Italian scorer in the league ............

  14. Depleted Juventus could be reduced to 17 outfielders against Inter Juventus are reportedly facing a major injury crisis as Thiago Motta may only have 17 outfielders for the big showdown against Inter. The Bianconeri will travel to Milano to take on the reigning Italian champions at San Siro on Sunday night. This will be one of the most anticipated clashes of the Serie A campaign, but Juve will arrive to the clash in less-than-ideal shape. Motta will only have 17 players at his disposal in addition to the goalkeepers, with Douglas Luiz joining the list of absentees. The Brazilian has luckily avoided an injury as revealed by the results of the tests conducted on Wednesday, nevertheless, the club are unlikely to risk him this weekend. ............ Moreover, Teun Koopmeiners is unlikely to recover in time for the Derby d’Italia. The Dutchman suffered a fractured rib during the Champions League contest against RB Leipzig before the international break. He initially tried to shake it up but could only last for 45 minutes in the ensuing contest against Cagliari. ............ Furthermore, Nico Gonzalez will also miss the clash against Inter as he won’t be able to recover in time from his muscle injury. The Argentine has been out of action since picking up this knock in Leipzig. These absentees are added to Gleison Bremer who tore in Anterior Cruciate Ligament and will probably remain out of action until the end of the season, as well as Arkadiusz Milik who recently underwent knee surgery and isn’t expected to return before December.
