Juventus went into the international break with a hard-fought victory in the Derby d’Italia at San Siro thanks to Filip Kostic’s lone goal mid-way through the first half. Both teams had a man dismissed in the injury time. Bianconeri’s 17th top flight victory of the season helped them stay close to the top-six, trailing Atlanta by just four points.

Meanwhile Massimiliano Allergri’s side have the second-best home-record in the league this term, collecting 33 points from a possible 42 at the Juventus Stadium. Juve edged past Verona in the reverse fixture at Stadio Marc’ Antonio Bentegodi in November courtesy of Moise Kean’s lone goal on the hour-mark.

Last time out, the Yellow and Blues lost to relegation rivals Sampdoria at Luigi Ferraris. Sampdoria went 2-0 ahead inside the opening 35 minutes courtesy of Manolo Gabbiadini’s brace, before Davide Faraoni pulled one back for Verona Verona two minutes from time, but Alessandro Zanoli’s 98th-minute effort sealed the win for Bluecerchiati. Meanwhile, Verona have the worst away record in the league this term, not recorded a single away-win and collecting just five points from a possible 39 on the road.
