Benevento-Juventus: the probable formations | The direct

Filippo Inzaghi against Pirlo: on the bench it’s a duel between world champions. The Campanians are returning from the coup in Florence, the Bianconeri from qualifying for the second round of the Champions League

2.20 pm – Bonucci towards the bench

—

Bonucci will not start and the almost always present Cuadrado will not have a day of rest. The Colombian will play on the right, with Frabotta on the left and De Ligt and Danilo completing the defense. Rabiot and Arthur will be the central pair in midfield, with Ramsey playmaker behind the two strikers Morata and Dybala and with Chiesa on the left wing. Bonucci is recovered, goes to the bench, but Pirlo does not risk him from the first minute.

It matches

Two healthy teams, returning from important successes, face each other on Saturday at 6 pm at Vigorito. Benevento, after the victory in Florence, is looking for points to keep the relegation zone at a distance (currently it is +4 on the third last Turin). Juve, 4 behind leaders Milan, have just collected their qualification for the second round of the Champions League and have resumed a good pace in the league, after a few draws too many. Challenge between world champions on the bench: Filippo Inzaghi receives Andrea Pirlo.

Precedents and curiosities

—

The only precedents date back to three seasons ago: Juve, after winning 2-1 at home, won against Vigorito with a clearer score, 2-4. However, it was a hard-fought match: De Zerbi’s Benevento drew twice, again with Diabaté, Dybala’s brace and capitulated only in the last twenty minutes, for another goal by Dybala and the definitive 2-4 by Douglas Costa. An identical result on Saturday would pay the bet 26 times, a classic 0-2 for Juve is the most likely result, at 8.00. A 1-0 for Benevento, like the one obtained last Sunday in Florence, is worth 25 times the stake.
