Inter 2-0 Parma result, stats and report

Juventus ground out a 2-0 win over Parma at home in Serie A, with Nico González and Teun Koopmeiners both scoring after coming off the bench to settle a one-sided contest. Parma offered next to nothing going forward and were second best from first whistle to last.

Monza came from behind to earn a 1-1 draw at Parma, with substitute Simone Lontani equalising on the hour after Jay Robinson had given the hosts the lead. Parma dominated possession and created the better chances but could not find a winner, continuing a troubling run of form in Serie A.

Hakan Çalhanoğlu's ninth-minute goal was enough for Inter to claim all three points at Cagliari, with the visitors dominating every meaningful statistic in a one-sided Serie A contest.

Real Madrid head into Tuesday's Champions League clash with Inter carrying two consecutive defeats and a defence that has conceded six goals in their last two Champions League outings. Something has to change.

Both Parma and Genoa arrive at this fixture without a point on the board this season and carrying form that raises serious structural questions. Sunday's derby of necessity could define the early trajectory of two clubs desperate for a foothold in Serie A.

AS Roma host Inter at the Olimpico on Saturday evening carrying the best defensive record in Serie A, but the visitors arrive with a pattern of scoring freely and a 5-2 head-to-head result from April still fresh in the memory.

Jose Mourinho praised Trent Alexander-Arnold's midfield display in Real Madrid's win over Inter Milan, then insisted 'he is not a midfielder', continuing a pattern set by Southgate and Klopp of trialling the role without ever committing to it.

Lautaro Martinez confirmed Barcelona's interest and declared his future 'already clear' at Inter, but he pointedly said nothing about Arsenal's reported approach via Gabriel Heinze. The silence exposes a passive Arsenal summer that ended without a single striker addition.
