Juventus vs Bologna
Napoli fans are desperate after their thrilling six-pointer victory against the Juventus were cancelled out by a terrible loss to Fiorentina. Thanks to that defeat, betting odds towards total victory for the current Serie leaders were boosted once again.
The only thing they can hope for is that Bologna pull off what Crotone did two weeks prior and pull off an incredible football betting upset at the Allianz Stadium. The mere thought of beating Juventus at their stomping grounds is enough to make anyone tremble, and betting websites aren’t giving the visitors any slack, either: bookies gave Juventus 2.08 odds for a huge -2.25 handicap.
However, the Ciucciarelli can only count on the Greyhounds to stop the Old Lady.
Paulo Dybala and Gonzalo Higuain are the main reasons as to why websites aren’t giving Bologna much of a chance. The attacking duo is responsible for 37 of Juventus’ 81 goals, and they’re unlikely to stop any time soon. Massimiliano Allegri knows how to make use of his attackers and will surely use them for this match.
The only hope Bologna has in turning the tides lies in the hands of Simone Verdi. One can argue that Verdi is single-handedly doing the heavy lifting to help Bologna secure another season in the top flight. He would need to score goals in order to bring up the hopes of two sets of supporters up. Erick Pulgar also needs to lead the defence in making sure that Dybala and Higuain don’t get any easy looks at goal.
I think Juventus will make huge strides in securing the Scudetto through this match as they clearly outclass Bologna in every department. However, I expect a good fight from the visitors that would allow them to leave the Allianz Arena with their heads held high.
Of course, Napoli shouldn’t just look at Bologna for a miracle. They need to win an interesting match against Torino if they want to keep their title hopes alive. Dries Mertens should impose his will here in preparation for the big tournament in June.
The battle for third heats up as Roma will battle Cagliari; Lazio, in the meantime, brace themselves for a tough test against Atalanta. Inter Milan have a seemingly easy task when they visit Udinese Dacia Arena.
