No Inter For Del Piero
11/24/2004 2:44:00 PM
Fabio Capello has confirmed that Alessandro Del Piero will not play Sunday night’s game against Inter.
The bianconeri’s captain is not fully fit and his physical condition is not yet at its best and will therefore not be on the pitch at San Siro in the clash against the nerazzurri.
“Del Piero will not play against Inter for sure, because he is not well and must work to be back next week,” stated Capello.
This will probably mean that the Old Lady will once again rely on Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Marcelo Zalayeta to score goals as has been the case in recent weeks

Oh man this is bad, DP is out. Hope come DP doesn't have the luck to play against Inter?
oh i am so excited for this game! but i am very confident that we can win!!
our Defense is solid and can handle also Adriano, Zebina seems also fit for the match (thats great)! and in midlefield and attack we can cause Inter problems cause their defense isn't that strong!
I am sorry for Del Piero I hope he recovers soon!
PS: i nearly had the luck to visit the match, but it was sold out...
btw, dont forget that Adriano is in Brasil playing for his NT, and he'll probably be very tired when facing us, the same goes to other Inter key players, who have played every match this season.

Sad for Del Piero, I would of course prefer him to be there - however, we haven't been reliant on him this season, we will cope without him - we have no choice anyway!
Adriano only played about 10 min for the Brazil NT. And after sitting out this round of CL games on suspension, I think he'll be pretty fresh to be honest. Especially at his age.
I think Inter is going to score on us ... 1, maybe 2. That will be the key differentiator. We're probably going to put away 1 or 2 ourselves. So I see this as a pretty even match. I'll commit to a prediction here say it will be a 1-1 draw.
i say we have good chances of winning! Inter is very strong in Offense but weak in Defense! Juve is strong in Defense and the attack is also capable of scoring in any match! we have the 2nd strong attack in Serie A!
IMO we also have not played our best football till now, cause it wasn't needed,.. but we can still improve..
