DIRECT SPORT – Italy (24th day): derby in Milan, baptism in Turin
Even in a San Siro with a capacity still capped at 50%, the Milan derby promises to be hot on Saturday.
Inter, leader with four points ahead (and one game less, to play) over Naples and AC Milan, on the occasion to dig the hole on the Rossoneri.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic, hit with an Achilles tendon two weeks ago, is still uncertain at the forefront of a less dashing Milan for a few
weeks, against Interists almost complete and full of confidence after 14 games without defeat.
The other attraction of the weekend is scheduled for Sunday evening with the expected debut of Dusan Vlahovic with Juventus, against Hellas Verona in Turin.
The “Old Lady” (5th), in addition to the recruitment of the co-top scorer in the championship (17 goals) who arrived from Fiorentina, changed a lot of things in the middle during the final hours of the transfer window on Monday (departures of Kulusevski, Bentacur and Ramsey, arrival of Zakaria).
With the hope of finding a second wind to finally set foot in the Top 4, qualifying for the next C1.
Naples (2nd) and Atalanta Bergamo (4th), in the crosshairs of this once again ambitious Juve, have no room for error against poorly ranked Venice (17th) and Cagliari (18th).
