The Serie A battle for Champions League qualification continues this weekend and these Juventus vs. Bologna predictions give an update on the latest picture. Juve are still in with a shout of a late title push but their focus is on a top-four place.
Juventus vs. Bologna odds
1 – Juventus to win – 2/5
2 – Over 2.5 total goals – 5/6
3 – Juventus over 1.5 total goals – 4/5
4 – BTTS – No – 3/4
5 – Juventus to win 2-0 – 11/2
Juventus’ campaign looks set to see them just miss out on really challenging Milan or Inter in the final stages of the title race. However, Max Allegri has confirmed they cannot afford to miss out on a Champions League place next season and the Old Lady’s recent form indicates his charges will have enough to clinch qualification.
The Turin giants head into this game on the back of five Serie A wins from their last six league outings, compared to visitors Bologna who have won just once in their own last six league games. As Juventus have looked to close in on the home straight, they have also rediscovered their goalscoring touch in recent weeks. The Bianconeri have netted 11 goals in their last six league matches, at an average of just under two per game.
Alongside overall goals scored, Allegri’s side have also averaged over 1.5 goals in the majority of their recent games, scoring two or more goals in three of their last four league ties. That improvement at putting the ball in the back of the net has been mirrored at the other end, as Juventus have also tightened up at the back. They’ve only conceded twice in their last seven games in all competitions and one league goal since the end of February.
Bologna are unlikely to cause Juve too many problems in Turin, with three goals scored in their last six and three league goals scored away from home in 2022. Three points on the board is the key for Allegri at this stage of the season, with two or more goals scored by his team the common theme in the last month.
