According to Il BianconeroMotta tends to pair Fagioli and McKennie in central midfield. This duo proved effective in previous games against RB Leipzig and Genoa, where their partnership contributed to Juventus’ fluid and balanced play. Both players possess considerable creativity and drive, but are generally more attack-oriented, which could expose the defense, especially if Koopmeiners operate further up the pitch. The absence of a more defensive player like Luiz or Locatelli could leave gaps in midfield, making it a challenge to contain Udinese’s attacks.
Juventus’ tactical approach under Motta has emphasized flexibility and adaptability, and he could ask Fagioli and McKennie to take on more disciplined roles to ensure defensive stability. Fagioli’s technical control and McKennie’s box-to-box energy provide versatility, but they will have to remain vigilant to prevent Udinese from exploiting open spaces. Locatelli and Thuram, who are also viable options, would provide a more defensive shield if Motta decides to emphasize stability over attacking risk.
Motta’s choices in this match will be vital as Juventus look to maintain competitiveness in Serie A sidelined a number of important playershis tactical adjustments and ability to maximize the potential of the available players will likely determine the outcome. If Juventus can find the right balance in midfield, they have a great chance of winning against Udinese.
