“Inter Milan is the favorite for the title,” assured Massimiliano Allegri, the coach of Juventus Turin, two points behind the Milan leader on Thursday.

“We have no results objective for the end of the first leg, that is of no use, we are focusing on our objective for the season which is qualification for the Champions League,” Allegri explained at a press conference. on the eve of the match against Genoa, counting for the 16th day of the Italian Championship. “We have to keep our feet on the ground, take the matches one after the other and manage as best as possible the negative moments that may arise,” he continued.

As since the start of the season, Allegri repeated that he considered Inter to be the big favorites for the Italian champion title. “We know that Inter are the favorites for the title, the team was built to win its second star” for its 20th league title, he insisted.

Juventus, whose 36th and last title dates back to 2020, can return, at least temporarily, to the top of Serie A if they win in Genoa on Friday.

Allegri will be able to count on French international Adrien Rabiot who was unable to train at the start of the week after receiving a knock last weekend during the victory in Naples (1-0). On the other hand, he will be deprived “for a short month” of Moise Keane, injured in his shin.
