We have reached the penultimate weekend in the 2023/24 Serie A season and it is celebration time for some teams as they secure Champions League football.
The game between Bologna and Juventus will be played on the 20th of May at the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara.
The hosts are currently 3rd in Serie A on 67 points and the visitors are on the same number of points but one place below on goal difference.
Bologna come into the match on the back of an excellent 2-0 win at Napoli in Serie A last weekend. It took only 9 minutes for Bologna to open the scoring and they doubled their advantage 3 minutes later.
Bologna prevented the defending champions from scoring in the remaining 78 minutes.
The victory at Napoli means Bologna are undefeated in their last 8 fixtures, all of which were played in Serie A.
There have been wins over Empoli and Roma away plus Salernitana at home. Bologna were also held to draws against Monza and Udinese at home plus Frosinone and Torino away.
The stats show Bologna are undefeated in 31 of their last 35 Serie A games. However, they have won only 1 of their 4 most recent home Serie A matches and have seen under 2.5 goals scored in 5 of their last 6 league fixtures on home soil.
Juventus make the trip to the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara having won the Coppa Italia on Wednesday night, beating Atalanta 1-0 in Rome.
Juventus took the lead in the 4th minute and did well to prevent Atalanta from scoring in the lengthy time that remained to lift the trophy.
The victory over Atalanta means Juventus are undefeated in their 4 most recent fixtures in all competitions.
However, they have failed to win 3 of those 4 matches with draws coming against AC Milan and Salernitana at home plus Roma away in Serie A.
Trends show Juventus have been held to a draw in each of their last 5 Serie A games.
They have failed to win any of their 7 most recent league matches on the road but are undefeated in each of their last 3.
Juventus have seen under 2.5 goals scored in 3 of their last 4 away Serie A fixtures and are undefeated in each of their last 23 clashes with Bologna in Serie A.
Looking ahead to the team news and Bologna are without the injured trio of Joshua Zirkzee, Lewis Ferguson, and Adama Soumaoro.
Juventus travel without injured defender Mattia De Sciglio. Paul Pogba and Nicolò Fagioli continue to serve bans.
Third place is still up for grabs in Serie A but Bologna and Juventus know they have a place in the Champions League next season.
Juventus will arrive on the back of their cup victory and have a good record against Bologna. However, Bologna are a different team this season and our predictions are for this match to end level, with under 2.5 goals scored.
