Juventus vs. Inter Milan Predictions: Juve to enforce more misery on the defending champions

There’s a huge game in Turin this afternoon, as defending Serie A Champions Inter Milan head to the Allianz Stadium to face off against Juventus.

We’ve brought in our continental football lover @PeteMarsden_ In a game that could make or break both side’s seasons, Juventus will be looking to continue their 16-game unbeaten record in the league, and a good result could put them four points behind league leaders AC Milan. Juve’s main players should be raring to go, with Il Bianconero likely setting up in a 4-4-2 diamond formation, with Dybala, Morata and Vlahovic as the three attacking options.

Inter have had an interesting 2022, with just three league wins all year so far. Their poor form of two wins in nine Serie A games has seen them surrender top spot to city rivals AC, and drop down to third. A much needed win here could reinvigorate their campaign, taking them back into second, just three points behind the league leaders. Internazionale will most likely employ a 3-5-2 formation, with Dzeko and Martinez leading the line up top.

As ever, we’ve looked ahead to the game, and picked out two tips for the action tonight.

Starting off, we’re going with the form book here, and predicting Massimiliano Allegri’s side to come away with the win tonight. Although Inter won the last meeting between these two sides to secure the Supercoppa, their general form in 2022 has been appalling, and in recent weeks Simone Inzaghi’s side have looked jaded, which has shown with just one win in their last five league games.

History isn’t favourable to Inter when they travel to Juve, having won just one of their last 15 games in Turin in all competitions. With Juventus having picked up 21 points from their last nine league games,the momentum is behind them, compared to the away side’s 10. The price of 19/10 was slightly more appealing than the likes of 7/4 or 9/5 elsewhere.

Next up, we’re looking at the soon to be departing Paulo Dybala to have a major say in the game, and register an assist. Dybala’s record against Inter isn’t anything to shout about, scoring four and assisting just once in his 15 games across his time with Juventus and Palermo. Nevertheless, his position at the top of the diamond could lead him to having space behind the likes of Brozovic in the middle of the park, and running at a back three with the previously mentioned Vlahovic and Morata beyond him could be a recipe for chances.

It’s also worth mentioning that Dybala has been directly involved in three goals in his last three Serie A games, assisting two and scoring once.

Good luck if you’re following these bets, and please gamble responsibly.
