Juventus: rebuilding confidence ahead of a new campaign

Juventus are looking to bounce back after a disappointing 2025/26 season. The Turin giants finished sixth in Serie A with 69 points, missing out on Champions League qualification by just two points. Despite the setback, the club decided to maintain stability and continue with Luciano Spalletti as head coach.

The Bianconeri have shown encouraging signs during preseason, remaining unbeaten across four friendly matches with three victories and one draw. The coaching staff is using these games to improve tactical understanding, test squad combinations, and prepare the team for the Serie A opener against Frosinone on August 23. Before the competitive season begins, Juventus still have two more warm-up fixtures to fine-tune their form.

Inter: champions arrive with confidence and stability

Inter enter the new season as reigning Serie A champions after an outstanding 2025/26 campaign. The Nerazzurri dominated the league race, collecting 87 points from 38 matches and finishing 11 points ahead of their nearest rivals. It was their second Scudetto in three seasons, while they also added the Coppa Italia trophy to complete a memorable domestic double.

Cristian Chivu’s side have continued their preparations smoothly, playing three preseason matches with two wins and one draw. With the core of the championship-winning squad still intact, Inter are focused on maintaining their competitive edge and entering the new Serie A season in strong condition.

The Milan club have two additional friendlies scheduled before their league opener against Juventus on August 22, giving the coaching staff further opportunities to evaluate tactics and player fitness.
