The Turin year begins with a bang, that is, with the Derby della Mole, also in this edition accompanied by latent bad moods, dreams of revenge and a concrete need for victory. Current events, in the meantime, derby aside, say that Turin and Juventus are not doing very well. Turin, who, speaking of revenge and expectations, has not won the derby for 10 years, went quite quickly from the enthusiasm of the beginning of the season (which had seen the peak in first place after 5 days) to today's eleventh position, with the fans always rather annoyed and dissatisfied just as Juventus is dissatisfied in this period that, despite the obvious proportions, like their cousins is also experiencing a decline, less abrupt, but still a decline. For Juventus, the unbeaten run in the championship holds up but some recent draws are comparable to defeats and then the KO in the Super Cup against Milan was rather indigestible. On Saturday at the Olimpico Grande Torino, the derby will be worth, as always, for history and for the season but, this time, the three points will also and above all have a concrete meaning for the current season that both Torino and Juventus would like to correct as soon as possible.
Disappointing, for the Granata, the current eleventh place in Serie A as well as the 0-0 of the last match against Parma was disappointing, which confirms the great difficulty of Torino in winning matches: in the last 10 of the championship, Vanoli's gang has won only 1 time!
In this not exciting context, the one suffering particularly is certainly not the defense, the ninth of the championship but certainly the attack which, as we remember, had a heavy hindrance in the injury of Duvan Zapata at the beginning of the season.
For Torino, the goals scored are equal to the number of matches played (19) which means fourteenth attack in Serie A with the best scorer of the team the Scotsman Adams, author of 5 goals but of which only 2 from October onwards.
Juventus' Serie A 2024/2025, in the first half of the season, has seen many X signs (11) and almost as many disappointments, either because they were draws against opponents fighting for relegation or because they were draws resulting from opponents recovering at the end (like the last 2-2 against Fiorentina) and the 0 in the boxes of defeats in the championship is, for now, a poor satisfaction.
The KO against Milan, the second of the season after the one against Stuttgart in the Champions League has certainly raised the curtain on the black and white crisis that only a convincing success in the derby could put an end to.
The dry numbers of goals scored and conceded by Juventus in Serie A so far are not bad and speak of a team that scores 1.67 goals per game, conceding 0.83 goals per match.
Considering last season too, the total unbeaten run in Serie A has lasted for 26 games.
Two teams that will arrive at the match with a bit of tension, with some uncertainty and also with possible unavailability in the last few days (Vlahovic and Conceiçao for Juventus, Coco and Ricci for Torino are in doubt). All this, combined especially with Juventus' tendency, in every type of match to not produce much and to risk relatively little which is similar, with different numbers, to that of Torino, makes BetMines' prediction lean towards a match with less than 3 total goals, a circumstance that has occurred in 6 of the last 7 matches between Torino and Juventus.
Torino (3-5-2): Milinkovic - Savic; Maripan, Vojvoda, Masina; Pedersen, Linetty, Vlasic, Gineitis, Sosa; Sanabria, Karamoh. Coach: Vanoli.
Juventus (4-2-3-1): Di Gregorio; Savona, Gatti, Kalulu, Cambiaso; Thuram, Koopmeiners; Nico Gonzales, Yildiz, Mbangula; Weah. Coach: Motta.
