Parma vs Juventus: TV channel, live stream, team news & preview

Juventus will attempt to preserve their unbeaten start to the 2018-19 Serie A season when they take on Parma at Stadio Ennio Tardine on Saturday.

Massimiliano Allegri's side have won their first two games of the season, coming from behind to see off Chievo 3-2 in their opener before beating Lazio 2-0 in Turin last week.

Star signing Cristiano Ronaldo failed to get off the mark in either of those matches and he will be eager to ensure he doesn't draw another blank ahead of the international break.

Parma, meanwhile, have put just one point on the board thus far, following up a 2-2 draw against Udinese with a 1-0 defeat to SPAL.

Match Preview


Blaise Matuidi Miralen Pjanic Juventus Serie A

Juventus have shot straight to the top of the Serie A table after just two games and the reigning champions will be confident in their ability to add another three points against Parma.

The Bianconeri pulled off the transfer of the year when they lured Ronaldo from Real Madrid, but the Portuguese has not made the immediate impact many would have expected, though he did supply an assist for Mario Mandzukic in the win over Lazio.

Allegri revealed that the 33-year-old was "angry" following his failure to win the UEFA Player of the Year award on Thursday, so Parma are firmly in the firing line as he looks to respond to his detractors.

"Cristiano is fine and he has trained well," said the Juventus boss. "On Thursday, he was angry because he won the Champions League and scored 15 goals. This shows that he always wants to be the best."

Regardless, Juve have looked impressive as a unit, with Leonardo Bonucci's return strengthening the defence, while Miralem Pjanic appears to be thriving once more in midfield.
