Juventus (home)
- Juventus has won four and drawn one of their last five Serie A games, including recent successes over Genoa and Atalanta.
- Juve are fourth in the Serie A table with 60 points from 32 games.
- The Bianconeri are on a two-match winning streak and unbeaten in their last five, having seen off Genoa and Atalanta in their previous two outings.
Bologna F.C. (away)
- Bologna F.C. has won three and lost two of their last five matches in all competitions, beating Cremonese and Lecce in their last two Serie A away games.
- Bologna has won eight, drawn four and lost only four of 16 away fixtures in the Italian top flight this term and they will come to the Allianz with plenty of confidence after back-to-back away wins against Cremonese and Lecce.
Head-to-Head
However, they haven’t won either of their last two home games against Bologna, so the visitors should be able to make a game of it.
Key Players
- Kenan Yildiz has been Juve’s most trusted goal source this term with 10 in Serie A from 31 appearances, but they have been getting plenty of contributions elsewhere with Chico Conceicao laying on three assists during their current five-game scoring streak.
- Bologna have Jonathan Rowe, who has three in his last five, to provide a spark up front, although striker Riccardo Orsolini is the top scorer for the club with eight in 30 Serie A appearances.
Betting Insights
The bookmakers make Juventus the odds-on favorites to win this clash at 1.52 , and it is reasonable to expect both teams to score at around 1.89 , while there should be over 2.5 goals at about 1.79 too.
Prediction
The Rossoblu will press Juventus hard and that could lead to a free-flowing game with plenty of goals, but Bologna has conceded 19 in 16 Serie A road games so the hosts should have enough to edge it.
