Our prediction for this Serie A match:
After dropping two points in a 1-1 draw with Genoa, Juventus will look to melt Inter’s advantage in the Serie A standings when they take on Frosinone in Saturday’s matinee. The Bianconeri are eyeing their sixth away win of the process, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. There are no fresh injury worries in Max Allegri’s team, but both Moise Kean and Mattia De Sciglio remain on the sidelines with injuries.
The Canarini, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 2-1 loss to Lecce. Frosinone are on a three-game winless run in the Italian top flight and seeing that Juve are determined to stay in the title race, we are tempted to put our money on Federico Chiesa and Co. As for the home side, all Jesus Carvalho, Riccardo Marchizza, and Sergio Kalaj are out of contention through injuries.
Highlighted Player (Weston McKennie):
After starting his youth career at FC Dallas, Weston McKennie moved to Germany in the summer of 2016, signing a contract with Bundesliga side Schalke 04. The American footballer made his Bundesliga debut on May 20, 2017, coming as a substitute in the 77th minute of the match.
The talented midfielder scored his first goal in the German elite division on August 6, 2018 in a 2-0 win at Fortuna Dusseldorf. Speaking of his international career, the Schalke footballer made his debut with United States of America on November 14, 2017 in a friendly against Portugal, finding the net on his debut.
Weston McKennie has two caps for the USA U20 team as well. His main position is central midfield, but he used as both defensive and attacking midfielder as well. The USA international was born in Fort Lewis, Washington on August 28, 1998. His preferred foot is right.
Highlighted Team (Frosinone):
Back in 1912 Frosinone were founded as Unione Sportiva Frusinate and it has to be noted that the colors of the team were originally red and blue. They were later changed to the current yellow and blue and the Canarini have been wearing those kits ever since. Frosinone made their first ever appearance in the Serie A in the 2015/2016 season, but they failed to secure the promotion.
The Canarini finished the season in 19th place in the standings, eight points behind Udinese, who eventually avoided relegation to Serie B. However, two years later Frosinone returned to the Italian top flight as they defeated Palermo 3-2 on aggregate in the play-offs final.
The club play their home games at Stadio Benito Stirpe, the stadium that was opened in 2017. The venue can hold 16,227 spectators and it is owned by the Municipality of Frosinone. The construction cost €20 million.
