In the next match, Juventus will face Inter Milan. I think it will be a testament to the strength of both teams. Inter Milan this season isn't as strong as last season after a change of coach. I think there's a good chance Juventus can win the match.

Juventus and Inter Milan can be considered as direct competitors for top four and even Scudetto in this season, and they are both managed by two young head coaches. Juventus got better results than Inter Milan so far but with only two matches, this better result might not be solid evidence on quality of Tudor and Chivu. This direct match can help Chivu proves that he is not worse than Tudor in management and can help Inter Milan return to top four and Scudetto race.

Any coach who loses in this big match will receive a lot of critics and their club can fall into doubt of a crisis. It's clearly that Chivu will begin this big match with more pressure than Tudor and his position can be lost if Inter Milan loses this match.

That's true, Inter Milan management has taken a big risk by appointing Chivu as Simone Inzaghi successor. Being an important part of the club journey for many years is an advantage, but it's not a guarantee of success. Nevertheless, Chivu has a good squad depth, which can make his job easier, even though many people doubt his managerial quality. We don't know what will happen in the future, but what is clear is that Inter Milan is still considered a Scudetto contender for now.

Inter Milan took risk and they will try to keep up support to Chivu until they see he is incapable for this position. Belief and a this head coach position were given to Chivu but it can be taken out by Inter Milan anytime. This match with Juventus comes too early with Chivu but to succeed with Inter Milan, he must overcome this challenge well enough. At least, it must be a draw and best it should be a win and three points, otherwise a defeat will result in much worse situation for Chivu.
