Bologna’s hopes of European qualification hinge on overcoming a long-standing winless streak against Juventus. The two teams will clash in Serie A, with Bologna seeking to end a 27-match winless run against their rivals.
Key statistics:
- Juventus is currently in fourth place in Serie A.
- Bologna has not secured a victory against Juventus since February 2011.
- Juventus boasts an unbeaten home streak of 14 matches against Bologna.
- Bologna has won their last four away league matches.
- Bologna has played 302 games so far, achieving an average of 1.58 points per game.
Bologna’s recent form shows promise, despite their struggles against Juventus. They have won four consecutive away league matches, which could boost their confidence. However, they suffered a heavy defeat in their last match, losing 4-0 to Aston Villa in the Europa League quarter-finals.
Injuries have plagued Bologna, impacting key players such as Thijs Dallinga and Lukasz Skorupski. The team’s coach, Luciano Spalletti, will need to strategize effectively to overcome these challenges. Meanwhile, Juventus continues to extend their unbeaten run in Serie A to six games.
This upcoming match is crucial for Bologna as they aim for a top-seven finish and potential qualification for European competitions like the Champions League or Europa League. Yet, breaking the winless streak against Juventus remains a daunting task.
