Spezia vs Juventus
Italian Serie A
Date: 19 February 2023, Sunday
Kick-off at 17:00 UK / 18:00 CET
Venue: Stadio Alberto Picco (La Spezia).

Juventus return to domestic duties after the UEFA Europa League clash against Nantes on Sunday afternoon when they visit Stadio Alberto Picco in Gameweek No 23.

I Bianconeri have been in good touch lately, winning three successive outings in all competitions.

They advanced to the Coppa Italia semifinal with a 1-0 win over Lazio and backed it up with two additional clean-sheet wins over Salernitana and Fiorentina in the previous two league games.

Massimiliano Allegri’s men will fancy their chances of making it three league wins on the spin here against Spezia who have not quite been enjoying their best form of late.

Spezia had a huge two-goal lead and an extra man on the pitch last weekend against Empoli but they blew it away, allowing the rivals two second-half goals in what ended as a 2-2 stalemate.

Head coach Luca Gotti has huge problems with the lack of meticulousness in his team’s back line these days.

Spezia head into this game off the back of four losses and a draw in the last five games in all competitions. They have shipped at least two goals in each of these five outings along the way.

This will be the music to the ears of Dusan Vlahovic who is hungry for goals. The Serbian striker bagged a goal in the last weekend’s tie against his former team Fiorentina but only to see VAR technology ruling it out.

Spezia vs Juventus Head-to-head

• Juventus will go into this on the back of five consecutive victories over Spezia.
• I Bianconeri have kept their net untouched in three of the previous four encounters with Spezia.
• The run includes a 2-0 victory for Massimiliano Allegri’s men when they faced Spezia in the first half of this Serie A campaign.

Spezia vs Juventus Prediction

Juventus will go into this in much higher spirits and we expect them to ease past the struggling opposition on Sunday. We will search for the value in the attractive 4.33 odds offered for Juventus to win both halves at Stadio Alberto Picco.

Since Spezia shipped two or more goals in each of the last five games across competitions, we will also back Dusan Vlahovic to score anytime at the odds of 2.25.
