According to announcements from Continassa and Appiano Gentile, Max Allegri and Simone Inzaghi intend to throw the new world champions into the fire: Angel Di Maria and Lautaro Martinez. For Allegri, it is important that Di Maria gets into a rhythm because next Friday the Bianconeri will play the most important match of this season – against Napoli at “Maradona”. On the other hand, Inzaghi wants to keep all three of his attackers (Lukaku, Lautaro and Dzeko) in good shape with rotation.Inter want to give meaning to the triumph over Napoli on Wednesday night with another victory over Monza. Simone Inzaghi has the chance to make it four more wins before the Milan derby as his side play Verona and Empoli at Meazza and away to Cremonese.It is expected that Inzaghi will make a couple of rotations in the team because it should not be forgotten that the Nerazzurri are playing the Super Cup final against AC Milan in Riyadh on January 18 and in Appiano Gentile they want their new year to start successfully. In this context, Inzaghi wants to raise the form of all key players, but also to distribute their strengths well, considering that there are a large number of players who have entered their fourth decade of life, from Acerbi, through Mkhitaryan to Dzeko. Practically, the backbone of the team.This isn’t a one-horse race! Inter show league leaders what defeat tastes like and make a strong statementLautaro Martinez is expected to return to the starting line-up in place of Dzeko as well as De Vrij in Acerbi’s position, while Dumfries should take his place on the right flank. Darmian did a great job in stopping Kvaratskhelia three days ago, but tonight the Dutchman’s characteristics will be needed more to break through the Monza defence.The team from Brianza won a golden point away from home in Florence. After a desperate start, especially at home (three consecutive defeats), the club owned by Silvio Berlusconi and Adriano Galliani recorded four victories and only one defeat. To a large extent, this allowed Monza to sail into the calm waters of Serie A. An interesting fact: Inter away have the same record as Monza at home: four wins and four losses.Coach Paladino intends to extend his confidence to the defender Pablo Mari, who two and a half months ago was the victim of an attack by a mentally disturbed person in a shopping center. Monza cannot count on former Inter player Stefano Sensi, and also Rovella and Donati. On the other side, Inzaghi is missing only Marcelo Brozović.##EDITORS_CHOICE##For every good news in Continassa, there is always a couple of bad ones. Thus, the return to the field of Angel Di Maria was accompanied by the absence of the best defender of the Old Lady, Gleison Bremer. Luckily, Bremer’s injury is not that serious and it is believed that in two or three days he will be fit and ready for the clash against Napoli next Friday.Bremer’s absence is not to be underestimated, especially since the Brazilian can be credited with keeping the Bianconeri’s clean sheet in their last seven Serie A matches. Juve have also won four in a row at home before the World Cup break and it is clear that they want to continue in the same manner.Compared to the team we saw in Cremona, there should be several changes in all parts of the team, from defense to midfield to attack. In defense, we could see Rugani with Alex Sandro, while Soule and Fagioli and probably Milik will be rested – we will see Rabiot, Di Maria and Kean in their places.Federico Chiesa should also start this match from the bench. The plan is for him to be in excellent condition to be among the starters in six days at “Maradona”.I nostri convocati per la prima in casa del 2023 🏟️⚪️⚫️#JuveUdinese pic.twitter.com/4e9HFiWf1C— JuventusFC (@juventusfc) January 7, 2023 After six consecutive triumphs in the championship, Udinese entered a series of eight matches without a win, six draws and two defeats. It is also interesting that Udinese lost only to the two first-placed teams in the table, Napoli and Milan, while recording three more wins and three draws.Juventus will not be able to count on seven players (Vlahovic, Pogba, Bremer, Bonucci, Cuadrado, De Sciglio and Kaio Jorge), but Udinese will also be weakened by the absence of the best and most imaginative player Gerard Deulofeu.Udinese coach Sotil has some doubts about the squad. In defense, Bijol and Ebosse compete for one place, while Samardžić and Lovrić, as well as Makengo and Arslan, are all fighting for a spot in the middle of the pitch.Juventus have gone 7 STRAIGHT GAMES in Serie A without conceding a goal ⚪️⚫️✅ pic.twitter.com/B7RphtKN98— Italian Football TV (@IFTVofficial) January 4, 2023 SERIE A – Round 17Saturday17:00: (1.75) Fiorentina (3.70) Sassuolo (5.40)19:00: (1.77) Juventus (3.50) Udinese (4.90)22:45: (6.25) Monza (4.10) Inter (1.60)Sunday14:30: (3.50) Salernitana (3.25) Torino (2.30)17:00: (2.70) Spezia (3.05) Lecce (3.00)17:00: (1.60) Lazio (4.10) Empoli (6.25)20:00: (8.50) Sampdoria (4.50) Napoli (1.45)22:45: (1.95) Milan (3.50) Roma (4.40)Monday20:30: (2.20) Verona (3.35) Cremonese (3.35)22:45: (3.60) Bologna (3.40) Atalanta (2.20)***odds are subject to change***
