Massimo Pavan was impressed with Juventus’ performance against PSG in the Champions League last night, but says their game against Inter Milan this weekend will be tougher.
Max Allegri’s men bowed out of the UCL group stage with a home defeat at the hands of the Parisians.
That result means they won just one and lost five group games in the competition.
It is a terrible run of form, but they had a better campaign than Maccabi Haifa and have been rewarded with a Europa League spot.
Juve is also underperforming in Serie A and their next opponent there would be Inter Milan.
The Nerazzurri are recovering from a bad start to the term and that makes this fixture an interesting Derby d’Italia.
Pavan believes Juve opponents have rested well and will be better prepared to test them.
He said via Tuttojuve:
“Juve have shown that they still want to be there, but on Sunday they will have to make the greatest effort against a more rested team with more changes.”
Juve FC Says
Inter have always been hard for us to beat because of the rivalry we share.
This season has been tough for both clubs, so they both need a win in the fixture.
We must prove we want it more on the pitch when we take to the field against them.

Fagioli and Locatelli surely bring hope for awaited build up and balance on midfield..Cuadrado simply must not play defensive role. 3-5-2 should transformed to 4 men in defence during siege without him. Therefore Danilo should only play right center back. Cuadrado contract should be extended given that Miretti himself has not been mature enough with his decision..Miretti and Kostic are not yet making an impact as both lesser in game influence and less creative compared to Cuadtado. Look how lively Cuadrado is against PSG.
Cuadrado is almost finished. He should only be used off the bench for the last 20 minutes or so. He can’t run out games and makes too many mistakes in the second half. His decision making has also been terrible this year. At least Miretti has the excuse of inexperience. The second PSG goal was Cuadrado’s fault.
