Marco Verratti was one of the stars in the game that saw Parma and AC Milan crash out of the Coppa Italia.
It had already been a bad week for Juventus, having been eliminated from the UEFA Champions League, and then seeing Cristiano Ronaldo score for Real Madrid in the last eight. But the club can still extend its Serie A lead with another victory tonight.
Inter Milan comes into this game with victory in their last three games, while Juve has dropped three consecutive games in Serie A. Both sides are still on strong form in the Champions League, with Juventus winning their last three games and Inter picking up a win in their last game.
No two teams in Serie A have played each other more than Juventus and Inter, and the northern club is trying to take the treble of titles. In the Coppa Italia last week, Juventus needed a late strike from Mario Mandzukic to defeat third-tier side Parma and keep its place as the main challenger to the club’s historic treble of titles.
Marco Verratti was one of the stars in the game that saw Parma and AC Milan crash out of the Coppa Italia. The Frenchman played a pivotal role in the 5-1 defeat that put AC Milan out of the competition, as he raced up the left wing and delivered a pinpoint cross that Mandzukic headed home in the 75th minute to give the team a 2-1 lead.
Juventus recovered from a poor start to turn the game around, but it has not been the biggest of days for the team. Claudio Marchisio, who signed for Juventus in 2009, broke a string of Achilles tendons in his right leg and will be out for four to six months.
For Juventus, the challenge will be how to make the most of Mandzukic’s injury as he has proved to be the club’s best forward.

On top of that, Ronaldo and Ronaldo both have assists in Juventus’ wins over Olympiakos and Sampdoria. The Portuguese superstar, who continues to score goals wherever he goes, only needs to add one more to his eight goals in the Champions League to surpass Raul’s record of 71.
Inter Milan has also started brightly this season, with victories over AS Roma and Lazio. However, their last game, a 1-0 defeat to Gennaro Gattuso’s Lazio, ended up costing them.
