A crucial game in Serie A takes place on Sunday, as Juventus could move up to second in the standings. However, Bologna has been in fine recent form since the World Cup, and will be looking for a famous home win to edge closer toward the European spots.
Serie A Preview
It has been an encouraging couple of weeks for Juventus, as they once again find themselves back in the Champions League spots after having their 15-point deduction overturned. That ruling means that the Old Lady now sits third in the standings, and they hold a three-point advantage in the race for Champions League qualification. They could also move up to second in the standings this weekend if they are able to pick up maximum points.
Juventus don’t come into this showdown in very encouraging form, as they have lost each of their previous three matches. The most recent of their defeats was suffered at home against Napoli last weekend. The champions in waiting scored the winning goal in the third minute of injury time in Turin.
Bet hereBologna could yet have something to fight for over the closing month of the season, as they sit eighth in the overall standings. However, they will need a remarkable end to the season to finish in a European spot, as they are currently ten adrift of the top six.
However, they have lost just once in their previous five matches. Wins have been hard to come by over that period, as they have registered maximum points on just two occasions. Bologna also comes into this match against the Old Lady having lost their previous match in the league, as they were beaten by Hellas Verona last Friday.
Bologna vs Juventus Head to Head
Juventus has a staggering record in this fixture, as they have recorded 21 wins from the previous 28 matches that they have played against Bologna. They are also unbeaten in their previous 21 league matches against their rivals this weekend. In the previous match between the sides, Juventus picked up a 3-0 win.
Bologna vs Juventus Prediction
Both of these sides will be looking to recover from defeats last weekend. However, the preference would be for Juventus to achieve that target, as they have an excellent record against Bologna in historical meetings, and that is especially the case on the road.
