Inter and Juventus are fighting for the Italian Cup final. Juve had a good January but lost to Inter two weeks ago.

 

The Italian derby was held 15 days ago, this time Inter and Juventus will face each other in the semifinals of the Italian Cup and will fight for a trip to the final. However, this stage is two rounds, and therefore the first part will take place in Milan, while in Turin the teams will meet in a week.

The game, of course, is important for both teams. Juve have a good chance of taking revenge on Antonio Conte with the team, as they lost 0-0 in Serie A two weeks ago (0: 2) and could have freely lost with a bigger score. It is noteworthy that the Turinese have played 4 games since then and have won all four without conceding a goal. Overall, in January, Juve played 9 matches in all competitions, won 8 and lost only to Inter.

Conte also had a good month at Inter but lost a significant 5 points in the championship against Sampdoria and Udinese. European Cups are not waiting for ‘Nerazzurri’. Thus, he can freely focus on the Italian Cup along with Serie A. Especially since Inter have not won any titles since 2010, which is obviously a very unpleasant and bad result.

Both teams face a super confrontation with a loss. Juve will play in Milan without Paulo Dybala, who is still injured. On the other hand, Inter are probably missing the two best players on the team – Lukaku and Hakim. They owed much to his team in the Italian derby two weeks ago. But now Conte will have to replace them. Both the Belgian and the Moroccan received yellow cards in the quarterfinals against Milan. So, since they were in the limit, they will miss the first semifinal due to disqualification.
