Bologna vs Juventus: Match Prediction
At home, Bologna tend to play proactively and create chances, and they rarely fail to score: in their last 21 Serie A home matches the club left the field without a goal only once, while in 12 of those fixtures they found the net at least twice. That attacking threat has been a consistent feature for Italiano's side this season.
Juventus also carry a clear attacking threat on the road and have scored in eight of their last ten away league games. However, the visitors have shown defensive vulnerabilities — they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 18 of their last 20 Serie A away matches.
Notably, the last three league meetings at the Renato Dall'Ara have produced goals at both ends. Taking all factors into account, I expect both teams to score. My prediction: Both teams to score – Yes
* For each team the starting XI shown was the side's line-up in their last match in this competition.
