A significant top-of-the-table Sunday clash from the Serie A

Juventus have held themselves quite well even if they may not be one of the best-scoring sides this Serie A season. Their defensive record is only second to the opposition they are up against this Sunday. In the last 7 games, the Bianconeri have kept a massive 6 clean sheets. No doubt they will need this form going up against the best-scoring side in the Italian top tier.

No other team have been so good in front of the net than Inter Milan this term. The Nerazzurri have scored 29 goals so far having played 12 league games. And having the best defensive record should be a boon as they field themselves at the Allianz Stadium this Sunday for the Derby d’Italia against Juventus.

Federico Chiesa (Juventus)

Federico Chiesa scored a brace of goals past North Macedonia in the November international break for Italy’s national football team. Chiesa has starred for the Old Lady in 11 Serie A games. His four goals alongside his single assist all came in the first five league games. Chiesa can utilise this big Derby d’Italia clash to regain his touch in front of goal.

Lautaro Martinez (Inter)

Inter Milan’s main man happens to be captain and striker Lautaro Martinez. The forward has been sensational scoring 12 goals in 12 league games.

Match Prediction for Juventus vs Inter

This Sunday’s Derby d’Italia clash will provide Juventus an opportunity to displace Inter from the peak. All they need is a win. But given the tenacity of the Inter Milan squad and their desire, it is gonna be a very tough prospect. Both teams have been tough to score against so far after 12 league games. But against each other Inter seemingly should have a better grip in front of the net.

Prediction: Juventus 1-2 Inter
