"Igor Tudor reaffirmed his belief that Juventus can challenge for the Serie A title, but said their Scudetto hopes will be put to the test by Inter this weekend. Juventus welcome Cristian Chivu's side to Allianz Stadium on Saturday, hoping to maintain their perfect start to the season after winning both of their opening league fixtures. Tudor was announced as Thiago Motta's successor in March, becoming the first foreign manager to be appointed by the Serie A giants since Didier Deschamps in 2006-07."
"Juventus have not won the Serie A title since 2019-20 under Maurizio Sarri, with their highest finish in the division since being third, which they managed in 2023-24. The Bianconeri are handed a 13.1% chance of lifting their 37th Serie A title according to the Opta supercomputer, behind Inter (25.6%), Napoli (21.2%) and Roma (17.3%). "Obviously, this team can fight to win the Scudetto," Tudor told DAZN Italia at his pre-match press conference."
Igor Tudor expects Juventus to be contenders for the Serie A title while warning that Inter will test those ambitions in their upcoming match. Juventus have started the season with two league wins and aim to continue their perfect run at Allianz Stadium. Tudor became Juventus manager in March, the club's first foreign appointment since 2006-07, and led them to a top-four finish and Champions League qualification. Juventus last won the Scudetto in 2019-20. Opta rates Juventus' title chances at 13.1%, behind Inter, Napoli and Roma. Tudor stresses achieving concrete results rather than talking about objectives.
