Juventus are currently facing a significant attacking crisis in the 2026-27 campaign. By matchday nine, the team has managed only 11 goals, leaving them 13th in the Serie A standings for goals scored. In contrast, Inter currently lead the league with 25 goals.
The current figures highlight a sharp decline in production. Last season, under Igor Tudor and Luciano Spalletti, the Bianconeri scored 61 league goals, finishing with the third-highest tally in Italy. In the 2024-25 campaign, the club netted 58 goals, while in the two seasons prior under Massimiliano Allegri, they scored 54 and 56 respectively.
Historical data shows that the current efficiency is a far cry from the 2020-21 season, when Andrea Pirlo's side scored 77 goals. Since then, the team's output has fluctuated, but the current start to the 2026-27 season represents one of the most challenging periods for the club's offensive unit in the last seven years.
