Juventus are poised to capitalize on their strong home form when they face Bologna, who are recovering from a significant Europa League loss to Aston Villa. With Juventus winning 4 of their last 5 Serie A matches, and Bologna struggling with recent defeats, the Old Lady is expected to secure a victory in Torino. Juventus' solid defense and recent offensive form make them favorites to win and potentially keep a clean sheet. Betting tips suggest backing Juventus to win, possibly to nil.

HTH - Old Lady on Top


Juventus lead Bologna 95-29 alongside 69 draws. Bologna’s last victory over the Old Lady came in 2011.

Juventus Sitting Fourth in Serie A


Juventus went unbeaten in March and have won both matches in April. They have climbed to fourth in Serie A and are in touching distance of AC Milan and Napoli.

The Old Lady beat Genoa 2-0 in their previous home game. Bremer and Weston McKennie scored in the opening 17 minutes with the result never in doubt.

Luciano Spalletti’s side won 1-0 at Atalanta last time out thanks to Jeremie Boga’s fourth goal in six games. They were on the back foot for large spells, ending the contest with 44% possession and 0.61-1.69 xG.

Bologna Long Way Off Europe


Bologna are coming off a comprehensive exit to Aston Villa in the Europa League quarter finals. Beaten 3-1 at home in the first leg, they fell to a 4-0 loss in Birmingham.

Vincenzo Italiano’s side have won two straight in Serie A, starting with a 2-1 victory at Cremonese.  Remo Freuler and Riccardo Orsolini scored in a comfortable 2-0 win against Lecce last time out.

The Emilia-Romagna club sit eighth on the table with six games remaining. It's going to be a difficult take to return to Europe next season.

Predicted Lineups & Team News


Juventus (3-4-2-1) Michele Di Gregorio; Pierre Kalulu, Bremer, Lloyd Kelly; Weston McKennie, Manuel Locatelli, Khephren Thuram, Andrea Cambiaso; Francisco Conceicao, Kenan Yildiz; Jeremie Boga

I don’t expect many changes from Luciano Spalletti. Weston McKennie could come back into the starting side at the expense of Emil Holm

Arkadiusz Milik is not fit and Dusan Vlahovic remains out injured. Jeremie Boga is ahead of Jonathan David and Lois Openda in the pecking order up front.

Bologna (4-2-3-1) Massimo Pessina; Joao Mario, Martin Vitik, Jhon Lucumi, Juan Miranda; Remo Freuler, Nikola Moro; Riccardo Orsolini, Simon Sohm, Nicolo Cambiaghi; Jens Odgaard

Lewis Ferguson returns from suspension. Jens Odgaard could replace Santiago Castro up front.

Verdict

Juventus have been strong at home in recent weeks and have a great chance to keep climbing the table. They meet Bologna at a good time, the visitors coming off a heavy Europa League defeat at Aston Villa.
