The Derby della Mole has brought nothing but misery for Torino for several years. The Bull hasn’t beaten Juve in 18 consecutive meetings, also battling out just four draws. The last victory came on home turf in April 2015 when Fabio Quagliarella had a goal and an assist to help Torino strike back after going down via an Andrea Pirlo free kick.

To find Torino’s last away win in this fixture, you have to go all the way back to the 1994-95 Serie A campaign when Toro managed to do the league double over Juventus, winning 2-1 at the old Stadio Delle Alpi. Since then, Juventus has won 14 of the following 19 home derbies.

The Old Lady has endured some hiccups recently but looks well-placed to continue its success in the derby. The team has kicked off the new campaign in decent form, collecting 14 points in seven games, and has registered back-to-back clean sheets. Dusan Vlahovic and Federico Chiesa have formed a deadly duo up front and will hope to recover in time for Saturday’s big match.

Vlahovic, who has struck four times in five league starts this season, is troubled by a back problem and already missed last weekend’s 0-0 draw against Atalanta. Chiesa, also boasting four goals for the season, has suffered a muscle injury in training and could be forced to miss his first game of the 2023-24 campaign.

Torino has a very lengthy injury list, with eight players dealing with various health issues, but that hasn’t kept the team from enjoying a decent start. Ivan Juric’s men have collected two wins and nine points from seven outings, occupying the 10th spot in the table. Similarly to Juventus, Torino has also looked strong defensively, recording three clean sheets in the past five games, but the team’s lack of goals must be a major worry for Juric. His side has netted only six times so far, getting half of the goals from one man, summer signing Nemanja Radonjic.
