Juventus take on the visitors Bologna in the round 33 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Sunday, April 19th at Allianz Stadium (Turin).
Juventus are defending their 4th place in the league against Como and Roma. After being knocked out of the Champions League by Galatasaray, Luciano Spalletti himself admitted that the team is now benefiting from a less demanding schedule, although he has not yet fully explored the potential of his squad. Their recent form has clearly improved, with the team looking more organized and efficient in key moments. They have been managing matches more pragmatically, often securing narrow but important wins. In Serie A, the results have indeed picked up: after a 1–0 win in Bergamo against Atalanta BC, “The Bianconeri” have 5 wins in their last 7 matches. Slip-ups from AS Roma and Como 1907 allow Juventus to stay two points clear of 5th place with a game in hand. Naturally, against Bologna FC, Spalletti’s side will aim to capitalize fully on that advantage. In terms of absentees, only Cabal stands out — an important rotation player, though injury-prone.

Bologna completely collapsed in the Europa League quarter-final against Aston Villa, losing the tie comprehensively. After a 1–3 home defeat, they were beaten again 1–4 away. Their recent form highlights a team struggling to cope with pressure in big matches, especially away from home. At the same time, their performances have lacked consistency, making it difficult to build momentum. Yes, they did beat US Lecce 2–0 at home in the league, but it was “only Lecce,” and now after the trip to England, they face another difficult away game in Turin against a highly motivated opponent. Under Vincenzo Italiano, and considering their position in the league along with exits from the cup and European competitions, next season will most likely be limited to domestic tournaments. There are also squad issues, with key absentees including Skorupski, Dominguez, Dallinga, and Casale.
I believe “The Bianconeri” are capable of defeating Italiano’s team for the second time this season. It is worth recalling that in the first round at Renato Dall’Ara, Juventus secured a 1–0 victory. With home advantage, stronger motivation, and overall better form, Juventus should demonstrate their quality in front of their tifosi and secure all three points. The hosts look more stable and better prepared, which should ultimately make the difference in this matchup.
Prediction for the match: Juventus to win.
