Juventus opened their Serie A campaign with a 1-0 victory over newly promoted Frosinone on Saturday, but the performance raised questions about the team’s offensive sharpness following a subdued display. The decisive goal came in the 22nd minute when Gleison Bremer headed the ball into the net, securing the win for Luciano Spalletti’s squad.

Despite dominating possession and game tempo for much of the match, Juventus were unable to extend their lead, leaving the outcome uncertain until the final whistle. The team faced additional concerns when goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario, on loan from Tottenham Hotspur, suffered a leg injury late in the game and was forced off. His departure coincided with a late surge from Frosinone, who pressured Juventus in stoppage time and struck the crossbar, but the visitors ultimately maintained their slim advantage.

The victory offers Juventus a necessary three points after they finished a disappointing sixth place in the previous season. Their start follows that of reigning champions Inter Milan, who defeated another promoted club, Monza, 4-1 earlier in the weekend.

Elsewhere in the league, Lecce secured a 2-0 away win at Venezia, another newly promoted side, with second-half goals from Olaf Gorter and Tiago Gabriel. Additionally, former Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim made his Serie A debut at the helm of AC Milan as his team hosted Torino later on Saturday.

The early results highlight a competitive start to the Serie A season, with established clubs asserting their quality against lower-ranked opposition but still facing challenges in consistency and performance.
