Juventus Squad Update: Key Absences and a New Addition
Juventus has announced their squad list for the match against Inter, with notable absences. New signing Edon Zhegrova and Francisco Conceicao will miss the game. Conceicao is sidelined due to a physical problem sustained while on international duty with Portugal. However, Lois Openda, the Belgian forward who joined Juventus in the recent transfer window, has been called up and could potentially make his debut during the match.
Pre-Match Analysis and Expectations
Ahead of the game, both coaches, Chivu and Tudor, have tried to temper expectations. A Juventus victory would put them 6 points ahead of Inter, a significant advantage given Inter's status as a direct rival for the Scudetto. While Napoli began the season as favorites, followed by Inter and then Juventus, a win could reshape the initial predictions.
Juventus has made strategic improvements by reducing heavy wage commitments and bringing in targeted reinforcements such as David and Zhegrova, who are expected to make a significant impact this season.
