Juve and Inter lose pieces: injury emergency before derby d'Italia

Juventus and Inter grapple with injury emergencies, less than two weeks before the Serie A top challenge. For the Nerazzurri è arrived in the last hours the most heavy forfeit, that of Alessandro Bastoni.

The Azzurri defender has reported a  right calf muscle strain that will be better evaluated in the coming hours: the risk è that he will not be able to recover in time for the match against the Bianconeri, scheduled for Nov. 26.

Already orphaned of Pavard, now Simone Inzaghi has to rethink the defense: Darmian will play; along with De Vrij and Acerbi, moved to the left.

But if Inter is crying, Juve certainly isn&#39t smiling: Fabio Miretti has left the Under-21 training camp due to lumbago and he too is at risk for the derby d'Italia. Manuel Locatelli also stopped due to a fractured rib: Allegri finds himself dangerously short of a blanket, and hopes to recover at least one of the two, to be deployed alongside Rabiot and McKennie.
