The Bianconeri look to keep their winning run going and these Serie A Spezia vs. Juventus predictions suggest that will be the outcome this weekend. For the Aquilotti, a defeat on Sunday could well drag them into the relegation zone.
Spezia vs. Juventus odds
1 – Juventus to win – 13/20
2 – Juventus to score over 2.5 goals – 13/5
3 – Vlahovic to score anytime – 7/5
4 – Juventus to keep a clean sheet– 23/20
5 – Juventus to score in both halves – 7/4
Juventus travel to face Spezia on Sunday afternoon, hoping to build on a strong run of form. The Bianconeri have done well to remain focused on the pitch despite all the distractions going on off the field.
A win at the Stadio Alberto Picco would be the Old Lady’s third consecutive victory in Serie A and, a potential secondary point deduction notwithstanding, there is no reason that Juventus could not re-join the top six before the end of the season.
For Spezia, recent results have not gone so well. Luca Gotti’s side are without a win in five games in all competitions. To make matters worse for the Aquilotti, they recently lost their top scorer Nzola to injury and are without a number of key players for Sunday’s match. As a result, it is hard to see anything other than an away win here.
Recent encounters between the two sides reinforce this narrative, with the Old Lady winning all games since their return to Serie A. To make matters worse for Spezia, their visitors have had no difficulty scoring at the Alberto Picco, managing seven goals in their last two trips. Juventus have averaged 2.5 goals against their opponents in their last five clashes, and a wager on a similar goal-fest could well pay off this weekend.
One significant reason for optimism amongst the Bianconeri faithful is the return of Allegri’s first choice attacking trio. Dusan Vlahovic, supported by Federico Chiesa and Angel Di Maria, would overwhelm the majority of Serie A defences, and the former is our tip to score anytime on Sunday.
At the other end of the pitch, the visitors have looked equally impressive in recent weeks. Juventus have kept three consecutive clean sheets, with Allegri increasingly confident in his Brazilian back-line. With Leonardo Bonucci set to return, a bet on another clean sheet could well pay off.

Spezia team news
Luca Gotti’s player crisis continues, as Salvatore Esposito is ruled out of Sunday’s game having received a red card against Empoli. Spezia’s top scorer Mbala Nzola is expected to miss out once again through injury, meaning a start for Daniele Verde, with Simone Bastoni and Victor Kovalenko key absences in midfield.
Juventus team news
Juventus are finally seeing a number of key players return to action, with Massimiliano Allegri able to field the trio of Dusan Vlahovic, Angel Di Maria and Federico Chiesa together. Leonardo Bonucci may also be available on Sunday, although Juan Cuadrado, Paul Pogba, Fabio Miretti and Arkadiusz Milik will all miss out.
