Our prediction for this Serie A match:
There will be fireworks when Inter and Juventus face each other at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in the Serie A derby. The Nerazzurri showed character in a 2-2 draw with Roma, with the team coming from behind to share the spoils with the Giallorossi in the “Eternal City”. Inter are eyeing their sixth consecutive home win in the Serie A, and they should take advantage of Juve’s shaky defence. Matteo Darmian has joined D’Ambrosio, Pinamonti, and Vecino in the recovery room.
The Bianconeri, on the other hand, were anything but impressive in a 3-1 win over ten-man Sassuolo, and that is probably the main reason why we are tempted to put our money on Antonio Conte’s men this time out. Both Dybala and McKennie suffered injuries at the weekend, with the Argentina international definitely missing the Serie A derby. The USA rising star, on the other hand, is rated doubtful for the clash.

Juve were stripped two domestic trophies during the “Calciopoli” scandal, but despite being relegated to Serie B, the club quickly brought glory days back to Turin. The Bianconeri used to play their home games at Stadio delle Alpi, but nowadays they welcome their rivals at Juventus Stadium.
The capacity of the stadium is 41,475. La Vechhia Signora (The Old Lady) is yet another nickname of the club. Juve’s biggest rivals are Torino and the two local rivals take on each other in the Turin derby.
