JAKARTA – Juventus and Torino will heat up the continuation week of the 2023/2024 Italian Serie A this weekend. This is a high-tension battle between the two city rivals.
The match entitled Derby della Mole in the eighth week of the Italian top caste will take place at Juventus headquarters at the Allianz Stadium, Turin, Italy, Saturday, October 7 at 23.00.
On paper, Juventus has been truly dominant over their rivals in the last eight years. The team nicknamed the Old Lady is unbeaten in their last 18 Turin derbies.
Of this number, they managed to win 14 matches and the remaining four ended in draws. The last time Juventus lost to their rivals was in April 2015.
La Vecchia Signora have just kept their second clean sheet in a row after playing out a goalless draw with Atalanta last weekend. This result makes Juventus sit in fourth place in the standings.
They are four points adrift of the Milan duo, Inter and AC Milan, who respectively occupy first and second place in the standings after seven matches so far.
On the other hand, Torino has currently only secured two league wins and is still outside the top four in the standings. The team nicknamed Granata is five points behind their rivals Juventus.
Apart from that, they have also only won one of the last 34 meetings with Juventus in the league. In that period they even recorded defeat on 25 occasions.
The last Turin derby they won away from home was in April 1995. This clearly bodes ill for Ivan Juric's side when they visit their rivals' home ground this weekend.
Nevertheless, their defensive discipline under Juric has seen them face just 68 shots so far. That is the third lowest total in Serie A this season.
Lineup
Juventus (3-5-2): Szczesny; Gatti, Bremer, Danilo; McKennie, Fagioli, Locatelli, Rabiot, Cambiaso; Chiesa, Milik
Torino (3-4-2-1): Milinkovic-Savic; Schuurs, Tameze, Rodriguez; Bellanova, Ilic, Ricci, Lazaro; Vlasic, Radonjic; Zapata
