Juventus hosts Parma looking for second straight Serie A win

Turin is gearing up for a Saturday of soccer, and Juventus arrives with its confidence intact. Igor Tudor's side won its opening match of the season and now wants to repeat that formula, but this time in front of its own fans, at the Juventus Stadium, when it hosts Parma this Saturday, August 29, in matchday two of the 2026-2027 Serie A season.

The numbers set the scene: the Vecchia Signora already knows what it's like to pick up all three points on the road, and now it wants to do the same at home, against a rival that comes in reeling. Parma is coming off a home loss to Cagliari, so the club is under pressure to respond quickly to avoid falling behind in the standings this early in the season.

Can Juventus open the season with two straight wins? Everything suggests the Turin side has what it takes, especially if it leans on the attacking talent it has at its disposal.

Players to watch

For Juventus, all eyes are on Kolo Muani, the center forward who has yet to open his scoring account in this Serie A campaign and who has a good chance to break through in front of his home fans in this match. On Parma's side, the player to watch is Enrico Del Prato, the Italian defender who has emerged as one of the club's most reliable pieces.

Juventus comes into this match after edging past Frosinone in its league opener, a narrow win but one that delivered the first three points of the season. Parma, on the other hand, couldn't get past Cagliari at home and now needs to turn things around away from its own stadium to avoid starting the tournament with back-to-back defeats.

Recent history between the two sides also favors the Bianconeri: the last meeting dates back to February 1, 2026, at the Ennio Tardini, where Juventus won convincingly, 4-1. It's no guarantee of anything, but it's a precedent working in their favor.

When they play: date, time and TV

The match between Juventus and Parma will be played this Saturday, August 29, at 3:45 p.m. (Argentina/Uruguay), 2:45 p.m. (Chile) and 1:45 p.m. (Colombia/Peru/Ecuador). The broadcast will be available live through Disney+'s Premium Plan, exclusively for South America.
