Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Juventus, 2nd position with 6 points and a positive goal difference of +3
Inter, 6th position with 3 points and a positive goal difference of +4

The moment has arrived for the Derby d’Italia! Juventus and Inter are set to clash in Serie A Week 3 on Saturday, September 13, 2025, at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, Italy.  Certainly, this match is undoubtedly one of the most significant encounters between these two formidable teams.

Most important, this marks the first Derby d’Italia of the season.  Surely, the derby gives both Igor Tudor and Cristian Chivu the opportunity to make an early impression regarding the status of their squads.

Here’s the current scenario.

Juventus, coming off two consecutive victories to kick off the season, will aim to maintain their flawless point tally.  That is, following a 2-0 triumph over Parma and a 1-0 win against Genoa, Juventus could achieve a clean sheet in their first three Serie A matches for the first time ever! Will they secure the win?

On the other hand, Inter heads into the first international break of the season after suffering a loss to Udinese. Ouch!  In sum, Inter risks losing their first three matches of the season for the first time since 2011/12.

Statistics reveal that Inter has managed to win just one of their last six Serie A encounters against Juventus (2D, 3L): a 1-0 victory on February 4, 2024, thanks to an own goal by Federico Gatti. Overall, Juventus has triumphed over Inter more than any other team in the league (88 times). Incredible!

In fact, three of the last four Serie A matches between Juventus and Inter have ended in draws (with one win for the Bianconeri).  Notably, none of the previous three matches ended in a draw (one win for the Nerazzurri and two for the Bianconeri).

Juventus remains unbeaten in 11 of their last 12 home league games against Inter (W8 D3). All in all, their only Serie A victory at the Allianz Stadium during this stretch occurred on April 3, 2022 (0-1, with a penalty goal from Hakan Çalhanoglu).

👉    Juventus vs Inter Player Stats

 Dušan Vlahović, following his goals against Parma and Genoa, has the chance to score for the first time in each of the initial three matchdays of a Serie A season. Bang! Additionally, the Juventus forward has netted twice in his last three league encounters with Inter, after managing just one goal in his previous seven matches.

In the first leg of last season, Kenan Yildiz (19 years and 176 days) made history as the youngest player to score at least two goals in a single match between Inter and Juventus in Serie A.  Simply put, no Juventus player under 21 has scored more goals against the Nerazzurri in the league (two goals also for Pietro Anastasi).

Lautaro Martínez has found the net only twice in 14 league appearances against Juventus.  That is, only against Genoa (571 minutes) has the Inter striker experienced a worse minutes-to-goal ratio (518 minutes) among opponents he has faced more than twice in Serie A.

Serie A tickets

 

Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Fiorentina, 12th position with 2 points and a goal difference of “0”
Napoli, 1st position with 6 points and a positive goal difference of +3

Here is the preview for the Fiorentina vs Napoli match in Serie A Week 3, taking place on Saturday, September 13, 2025, at the Artemio Franchi Stadium in Florence, Italy. Here’s the situation. On paper, Napoli, sitting in 1st place with 6 points, are favored to win. Fiorentina, with only 2 points, are currently in 12th place. However, nothing is guaranteed.

Fiorentina has managed to win just two of their last 10 league encounters with Napoli, drawing two and losing six. The two victories for Fiorentina occurred on April 10, 2022 (3-2) and October 8, 2023 (3-1).

Napoli remains unbeaten in their last seven Serie A away games against Fiorentina (W4 D3). They have lost only once in their last 16 league away matches against the Viola (W8 D7): that loss was 0-3 on April 29, 2018, featuring a hat-trick from Giovanni Simeone.

Napoli has achieved 54 Serie A victories over Fiorentina, more than against any other team (54 against Lazio as well). Conversely, Fiorentina has triumphed over Napoli 55 times in Serie A, with only Bologna (58) being a team they have defeated more often in the league.

Fiorentina started the season with two consecutive draws and could now equal their historic record. Notably, they have only drawn all three of their opening matches in a Serie A season twice before, in 1936/37 (including a match against Napoli) and in 2024/25.

Fiorentina has won seven of their last nine home Serie A matches, with just one draw (0-0 against Parma in April) and one defeat (0-2 against Como in February).

✅   Player Statistics

Napoli forward Matteo Politano has netted four goals against Fiorentina in Serie A.  Politano has only scored more against Milan (six) and Genoa (five) in the top division. With one assist already in this tournament, he could achieve his 11th consecutive Serie A season with at least one goal and one assist—Piotr Zielinski and Paulo Dybala are the only other players to have accomplished this in all 10 previous seasons.

Napoli is the team against which Moise Kean has logged the most minutes in Serie A without finding the net (302); however, the Fiorentina forward has been the top scorer at home since the beginning of last season in the Italian top flight with 13 goals.

✅   Fiorentina vs Napoli Probable Lineups

FIORENTINA (3-4-1-2): De Gea; Comuzzo, Pongracic, Ranieri; Dodò, Sohm, Mandragora, Gosens, Gudmundsson; Kean, Piccoli.

Subs:  Martinelli, Lezzerini, Marì, Viti, Kouadio, Kospo, Parisi, Fortini, Fazzini, Dzeko, Gudmundsson, Sabiri,  Ndour, Braschi, Nicolussi Caviglia

Coach:  Stefano Pioli.

NAPOLI (4-1-4-1): Meret; Di Lorenzo, Beukema; Buongiorno, Spinazzola; Lobotka; Politano, Anguissa, De Bruyne, McTominay; Lucca.

Subs:  Contini Milinkovic Savic, Juan Jesus, Mazzocchi, Marianucci, Olivera, Gilmour, Vergara, Ambrosino, Lang, Elmas, Hojlund

Coach:  Antonio Conte.

✅   Fiorentina vs Napoli Match Officials

✅   Here is Cremonese vs Sassuolo preview for the Serie A Week 2 game on Friday 29 August 2025 at the Giovanni Zini Stadium in Cremona, Italy at 18:30.

Following their remarkable display at San Siro against AC Milan, Davide Nicola’s Cremonese will commence the second round of the league season by welcoming Sassuolo to the Stadio Zini on Friday, 29 August 2025. The objective for the Grigiorossi is straightforward: to capitalize on the strong performance they exhibited in the opening round and demonstrate that their recent success was not merely a one-off event.

Conversely, Grosso’s squad is under pressure to bounce back after their loss to the formidable Napoli. Although it appears to be a contest between two evenly matched teams, both clubs are aware that the three points at stake could be vital for their season’s progression.

Serie A tickets

Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
AC Milan, 15th position with 0 points and a negative goal difference of -1
Lecce, 14th position with 1 point and a goal difference of “0”

👉    This is a pivotal moment for AC Milan following their disappointing debut in Week 1, where they suffered a loss to Cremonese. Lecce and AC Milan are set to compete in Serie A Week 2 on Friday, 29 August 2025, at the Via del Mare Stadium. AC Milan aims to secure their first Serie A victory of the season.

The pressure is mounting for Milan, as they must secure a victory without exception. Milan’s goal will be to implement a highly aggressive strategy to score goals. It is also hoped that Milan will strive to maintain a clean sheet. Conversely, Lecce will present a determined side, eager for results. In Week 1, Lecce concluded with a scoreless draw against Genoa, earning 1 point for each team. Thus, the situation remains open for both teams. Who will emerge victorious?

Statistics indicate that Lecce has lost 8 and won only one of their 19 Serie A home matches against AC Milan to date, with that lone victory occurring nearly two decades ago. On paper, AC Milan is favored to win this match. A draw would be both a setback for AC Milan and a significant achievement for Lecce. The challenge lies ahead for Milan’s Coach Massimiliano Allegri to demonstrate whether his return to the Rossoneri to restore the team to its former glory is indeed effective or not.

Lazio lost their last Serie A match against Bologna and have not recorded two consecutive league defeats since last March: in that case the first was against Bologna and the second against Juventus.  Lazio have not lost in 16 consecutive home games in the league (14 wins, 2 draws) and since 2002 they have not done better in Serie A: in that case Lazio reached 22 home games in a row without defeat.
