On the evening of October 2, Juventus Arena.

The professional football stadium, which opened just this year, has a capacity of more than 40,000 spectators and is already full.

After all, this is a direct clash between the first and second places in Serie A.

The result of the competition may even directly determine the winner of the season!

Since this game will be followed by an international break, and the league will not resume until two weeks later, the two sides will also play their main role in this game, and there is no intention of reservations.

AC Milan's side is still 433:

Forwards: Mane, Ibrahimovic, Salah.

Midfielders: N'Golo Kante, Boateng, Gattuso.

Defenders: Antonini, Thiago Silva, Van Dijk, Zambrotta.

Goalkeeper: Abbiati.

The only changes made to the starting line-up were the two full-backs.

This is mainly due to tactical considerations.

The veteran Zambrotta's bottom cross is his masterpiece, fast and accurate.

The same is true for Antonini on the left.

And the young Desiglio is energetic and energetic, but in this indicator is much inferior.

Pan Yi made special adjustments in this game and had his own ideas.

And on Juventus's side, Conte really also discharged his most commonly used 352:

Forwards: Vucinic, Pato

Midfielders: Decelli, Pirlo, Vidal, Marchisio, Lichtsteiner

Defenders: Chiellini, Bonucci, Barzagli

Goalkeeper: Gianluigi Buffon

The most eye-catching of this starting line-up are the two former Milan veterans.

One is Andrea Pirlo, who is said to have had a conflict with Milan coach Allegri and then left Juventus in a bad mood.

The other is Pato, who has been in the starting two since Juventus, who are aiming to win the title, have been in the starting two strikers since buying the Brazilian prodigy at a high price, but it seems that he has not fully adapted to Conte's tactical system, scoring only one goal in the first four games of the league.

These two people are facing the old master today, of course, they are holding their breath and want to perform well.

However, from Pan Yi's point of view, Pirlo must be trying to restrain his play.

After all, this midfield brain, which seems to be unable to open his eyes all day, seems to be a bit of the end of his career in the later stage of Milan, and he can't start to play the main team.

However, after leaving Milan, he became the real engine of Juve, leading Juventus to consecutive championships.

Therefore, guarding against him is the key to defeating Juventus.

And as for Pato......

It is said that after his transfer to Juventus, he often secretly returned to Milan to have trysts with Barbara, and it is strange that such a professional attitude can be played.

This time, Pan Yi asked the top management to sell Pato to Juventus, in addition to reducing Milan's financial burden, but also pitting Juventus by the way.

In addition to the economic and tactical role, Conte faced such a high-priced player, even if Pato did not perform well, it was not good to put him on the bench.

This is bound to cause dissatisfaction among some players and can also affect the atmosphere in their dressing room.

In the future, even if Pan Yi leaves Milan, as long as Juventus still carries the burden of Pato, Milan may still suppress Juventus.

As the so-called Pan Yi's plan to mess with Juventus, this is exactly the case.

……

Now in the dressing room of the away team, Pan Yi, Allegri and Tasotti couldn't help but smile at the chess pieces representing the Juventus players on the tactical board.

Juventus' starting XI was exactly as they expected before the game.

Of course, it is not very difficult to guess this set of starters.

Under Antonio Conte, the BBC trio at the back was almost immobile, and only when he sometimes used a back four would allow Chiellini to play left wing-back, then right wing-back Lichtsteiner would drop back to play at right-back.

The three in the middle of the midfield, Andrea Pirlo, Vidal, and Marchisio, will not move.

In the forward line, Conte himself is not very fond of using the aging captain Piero, but sometimes he will rotate players such as Matri, Krasic and Simeone Pepe.

But after the introduction of Pato at a high price this season, the two forwards are basically fixed as a dexterous combination like Vucinic + Pato, especially when you need to play a strong team.

Therefore, guessing the starting line is actually equivalent to guessing the formation.

As long as Conte uses the 352 formation, the starting team is basically the same guy on the field, unless there is any injury.

Of course, whether Conte will use 352 in this crucial match, Pan Yi was not so sure before the game.

After all, Conte's technical and tactical arrangements are actually very flexible, judging from his previous coaching experience, he will not stick to the use of a back three, he has also played tactics like 424, 4141, 433.

He mainly arranges the best lineup and style of play according to the characteristics of the players in his hands.

It's just that, based on the current staffing of Juventus and Conte's personal preferences, Pan Yi boldly judged that the Italian coach would use 352 in the game against Milan, and made targeted arrangements and training.

This is the best card Conte can play at the moment, and it is also the most secure and safe formation and tactic in his opinion.

Now it seems that Pan Yi guessed correctly!

This is important.

On the surface, every match is just a test of the players' skills, bodies and will.

In fact, the fighting style of the coach behind the scenes has largely determined the trend of this game.

Some people say that football is actually a war of intelligence, but it just needs some players with body and skill as a carrier.

Pan Yi thought so.

That's why he does such meticulous preparation before every game, and then targets his opponent to death.

Your opponent's moves are all cards open and targeted, and you have a lot of moves that others don't expect to be ready to use, so of course you have a big chance of winning.

Now, like a real war, Milan have laid an ambush on all sides, waiting for Juventus to enter the ambush circle......

And by the time the Milan players came back from warming up on the pitch and listening to the coaches' final emphasis on tactics, everyone felt the coaches' desire for the victory.

The players are also excited.

They looked at Juve's starting line-up, exactly as the coach had predicted before the game, and knew that they had won another step in terms of tactical targeting.

Coupled with the fact that the game itself is a six-point battle for the title, the players don't even need to do much pre-battle mobilization.

In the end, Allegri still let Pan Yi make a final speech:

"I don't want to say too much today, you all know the significance of this game."

"Again, we don't want a draw, we just want to win!"

The players all nodded vigorously and let out bursts of angry roars, which could be regarded as a promise to Pan Yi.

Pan Yi finally raised his arms and said:

"Go, go get the three points back and keep the title in Milan!"
