Bologna and Juventus will face each other in Serie A this weekend. The match is slated to kick off at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara at 7:45pm UK time on Sunday and promises to be a cracking game of football.

Bologna

Bologna’s season is over. Sinisa Mihajlovic’s side are 11th in the Serie A table at the moment with 41 points from 37 games.

I Rossoblu cannot finish in a European place and will not get relegated to Serie B. In fact, unless they hammer Juventus by a record margin, they will not even finish 10th, but there is a chance that they could slip further down the table if results elsewhere go agains them.

Team News:

Andreas Skov Olsen, Nicola Sansone and Rodrigo Palacio all are likely to start.

Juventus

Unlike Bologna, Juventus have a lot riding at stake on this game. Last season’s Serie A champions are actually in real danger of missing out on the top four and a place in the Champions League next season.

Andrea Pirlo’s side are fifth in the league table at the moment with 75 points from 37 matches. The Bianconeri are a point behind Napoli and AC Milan, who are fourth and third respectively in the standings. Finishing in the top four is not in the hands of Juventus. All they can do is win their game against Bologna.

Team News:

Ronaldo will lead the line as usual for Juventus. Paulo Dybala could also start.

Key Factors to Consider

  • Juventus have scored 73 goals and conceded 37 goals in Serie A.
  • Bologna have scored 50 goals and conceded 61 goals in Serie A.
  • Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 29 goals and provided three assists in Serie A.
  • Roberto Soriano is Bologna’s top scorer with nine goals.
  • Juventus beat Bologna 2-0 at home in January 2021.

Conclusion

Juventus have been far from imperious this season, but having just won the Coppa Italia, confidence will be high among the players. Ronaldo and company are likely to win by a big margin.

Prediction: Juventus to win 3-0

Best Odds: 15/2
