Juventus vs Inter Milan Prediction
It is the Derby of Italy and that will likely lead to the typically low scoring game that is determined by fine margins between two sides that hate to lose to one another. Juventus have tried to play a more sophisticated and attacking style this season but have lacked efficiency in the final third, whilst Inter are nowhere near their slick and efficient best from last year but remain firmly in contention for the title as they compete in both the cup and in Europe, too. It is expected to be a game decided by a moment or two rather than with a dominant performance from either.
Juventus vs Inter Milan Tip: Under 2.5 goals
