Match day! Juventus faces the Bologna team from 8:45 p.m. as part of the 35th day of Serie A. An important match for the two teams that are still in the race to finish in the top 4 at the end of the season and thus qualify for the Champions League.
Classified in 5th place in the championship with 61 points, one less than Juventus, the Bologna team presents a record of 16 wins for 13 draws and 5 defeats and has a very good season. Present in the Champions League, just like the old lady this season, Bologna is still in the running to find the C1. A high quality team and who offered the Inter Milan scalp in the last home championship match.
Qualified for the final of the COPPA Italia with brio, Bologna is deprived of Emil Holm and Dan Ndoye, second top scorer of the team. For the rest, Vincenzo Italiano can rely on a reinforced group with a defensive duo Beukema – Lucumi in great shape. Several players to watch closely such as Riccardo Orsolini (12 goals), Jens Odgaard (6 goals) and even Santiago Castro with his 8 achievements. Back from injury, the latter should start on the bench at the start and it is Thijs Dallinga who will hold in attack. In the event of a victory, Bologna would resume 4th place.
Avoid defeat
For Juventus, it is absolutely necessary to bring something back from this trip and for that, Igor Tudor is forced to do with many absent. Dusan Vlahovic, Arek Milik, Gleison Bremer, Juan Cabal, Federico Gatti, Kenan Yildiz and Teun Koopmeiners are not there. Thus, the old lady should present herself with Di Gregorio in goals and a defense made up of soap, Veiga and Pierre Kalulu. Another Frenchwoman, Khéphren Thuram should start in the middle with Manuel Locatelli, Andrea Cambaso and Timothy Weah on the left. A notch higher, Weston McKennie and Nico Gonzalez in support of Randal Kolo Muani.
Recall that Juventus can take an immense step towards the Champions League in the event of a victory against Bologna this Sunday evening. The two teams had neutralized 2-2 in the first leg …
