Juventus vs Bologna Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The Old Lady are the only side in the Serie A to have not faced a defeat.

Juventus will look to continue their unbeaten run when they welcome Bologna to the Allianz Stadium in their 15th league game over the weekend. The Old Lady are the only side in the Serie A to have not faced a defeat since the start of the season. But they do have a lot of issues to resolve.

Thiago Motta’s side are certainly not losing games, but they aren’t winning many either. They have kept 10 clean sheets in their last 15 games, but at the unjustifiable cost of creativity and attacking style of play.

Bologna on the other hand are five points behind Juve, but have a game in hand. They have been firing on all cylinders and have displayed some top-class football since the start of the 2024-25 season. They got the better of Monza in their last game and are flying high on confidence coming into this game.

The Greyhounds will be ever so motivated to put up a strong performance against their former manager and move up the points table.

The Serbian international is expected to return to the starting XI for Juventus in this game. He has been dropping in consistent performances since the start of the season and has taken the Bianconeri over the line on multiple occasions. With six goals, Vlahovic is the fourth joint-highest scorer in the Serie A this season.

He is well known for his physical prowess, positioning and goal-scoring abilities. Moreover, he contributes a lot to Juventus’ gameplay with his anchor play and off-the-ball movements.

Riccardo Orsolini (Bologna)

Bologna will rely on their main man Riccardo Orsolini to take care of the offensive duties in this game. The Italian forward has enjoyed a good season so far, but Juve have been very solid this season and won’t be an easy nut to crack. He will rely on blistering pace, and creative abilities to take on defenders and find his way to the back of the net.

Orsolini has already scored six goals in the league this season and will be keen to add more goals to his tally.
