Serie A 2025-2026: Juventus-Parma, the likely lineups

Juventus starts again at Allianz Stadium, where for the first day of the championship it hosts the Parma of debutant Carlos Cuesta, a former Juventus youth coach. After finishing in fourth place only on the last day of last season, Igor Tudor is aiming for his team to make a quantum leap. It remains to be seen how much the long summer commitment linked to the World Cup for Clubs, which in fact never allowed the Bianconeri to rest, may affect them physically and mentally.
Tudor is ready to launch the two new signings right away. In attack, space is given to Jonathan David, who has already undermined Vlahovic in the hierarchies: the Canadian will be supported by Conceiçao and Yildiz. In the middle of the field, debut from 1′ for Joao Mario, deployed on the right, with Cambiaso on the other lane and the Locatelli-Thuram pair in the center.
Cuesta, making his full Serie A debut, relies on a 3-5-2 with Pellegrino and Almqvist in attack. Disqualified Balogh, the right flank will be given to Lovik.
Probable lineups
Juventus (3-4-2-1): Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Bremer, Kelly; Joao Mario, Locatelli, Thuram, Cambiaso; Conceiçao, Yildiz; David. All. Tudor.
Parma (3-5-2): Suzuki; Delprato, Circati, Valenti; Lovik, Bernabé, Keita, Ordonez, Valeri; Almqvist, Pellegrino. All. Cuesta.
