Juventus prepares to host Parma amid key player injuries
Juventus prepares to host Parma at the Allianz Stadium for a Serie A match. Ahead of the fixture, manager Luciano Spalletti confirmed several key absences due to injury, including Kenan Yildiz, Weston McKennie, and Marcus Thuram. To address these gaps, Spalletti expressed confidence in Kolo Muani and noted that 19-year-old Alajbegovic is prepared to step into a more significant role.
In addition to squad updates, Spalletti discussed the club's transfer strategy, mentioning potential negotiations for Kessiè while noting the constraints of Financial Fair Play. The manager also praised Nico Gonzalez's versatility and high level of play. On the tactical side, Parma is reportedly evolving from a 5-3-2 formation toward a more offensive 4-3-3 system under Carlos Cuesta.
Statistical models favor Juventus with a 55.6% win probability, with a 1-0 scoreline being the most likely individual outcome. The match will be officiated by Francesco Fourneau.
