Preview
On Wednesday evening, Juventus face Inter in the Supercoppa final. The game will be played at the San Siro at 21:00 (Italian time). The bianconeri will play the first final since the return of Massimiliano Allegri, who has the mission to defend the trophy won by Andrea Pirlo last season. The Italian manager still could reach his twelfth trophy for the vecchia signora, in addition, the Supercoppa title would be the first at the club for Manuel Locatelli.

Tactical Duel
Inter has a clear idea of play, attract to play with freedom. Because of it, we can imagine Juventus with mid and low lines, to avoid having space for Inter’s attackers and wingers.
Inter play very mobile in midfield, this is because players like Calhanoglu and Barella float and are always looking to appear in the area and not between the lines. Therefore, it is imagined that Max Allegri must use very compact lines and a strong marking in the midfield, so players like Rabiot and Mckennie will be essential in the game.
Without a doubt, I believe that Juventus’ main offensive weapon in the game will be trying to create 1vs1 situations between the lines for the 3 front men, especially Dybala, against Inter’s 3 center backs
