Juventus vs Torino Prediction & Betting tips
In this Derby della Mole, Torino hopes to steal points from fellow countryman and national champion Juventus in order to achieve European football. In December this did not work, when Cristiano Ronaldo scored the only goal of the derby from the penalty spot and Juve won 0-1.
Juventus:
Massimiliano Allegri indicated in a press conference that he would like to experiment in the last matches as his team already had the championship. He said he wanted to try Federico Bernardeschi as a midfielder instead of in the attack, he also said that he wanted to post Joao Cancelo as an outer midfielder and to see Emre Can in a more defensive role as was done against Atletico over time. .
None of these changes were actually tried in the Derby d’Italia with Inter. In the first half, the Milanese had the better of the game and rightly took the lead thanks to a beautiful volley from Nainggolan from far beyond the sixteen. The shot was nice, but Wojtech Szczesny did not go free, he grabbed the ball. With a shot from Icardi and a header from De Vrij from close range, the Polish goalkeeper looked a lot better, leaving Juve to rest only 1-0 behind. In the second half, Juve showed more pressure to attack with Leonardo Spinazzola and Moise Kean in the team. This resulted in the 1-1 after an hour of playing, Pjanic entered the one-two with Ronaldo with a heelball after which the Portuguese hit the short corner. The Brazilian purchase Matheus Pereira was allowed to make his debut just in time and almost accidentally worked the winning 1-2 in, but the ball went over so he had no dream debut.
Torino:
Where Torino initially only seemed to be competing for a ticket for the Europa League, it maneuvered itself into a good starting position last weekend to also be able to reach fourth place. In a direct confrontation of number four AC Milan was won so Torino now has as many points as the Milanisti and has a better mutual result.
During this visit to San Siro there was not much going on in the first half, a weak shot and a missed blow by top scorer Andrea Belotti were few moments in which the audience bounced. In the second half, Torino got the benefit of the VAR’s doubt in a Kessie handball, Belotti then scored from the penalty spot. Ten minutes later, Alejandro Belenguer decided the game with a great volley, certainly because soon after Romagnoli took a red card, AC Milan was unable to add anything.
Trainer Walter Mazzari once again has access to Daniele Baselli and raid Simone Zaza who have returned from a suspension. On the other hand, Emiliano Moretti is missing, the defender received his fifth yellow card of the season against Milan.
