On Saturday evening, Juventus hosts Udinese at the Allianz Stadium as the home team looks to continue an excellent run of results in Serie A.
The Bianconeri heads into this game on the back of a seven-game winning run in the Italian top-flight after a midweek 1-0 win at Cremonese. One of the main factors in Max Allegri’s teams' good recent league form has been solid defensive displays, as they have kept clean sheets in their previous seven matches in Serie A.
The recent winning run has moved the team from Turin up to third place in the table, seven points behind league leaders Napoli. They are considered by some as outsiders to win this season’s Scudetto.
Juventus’ home form has played a big role in their recent good results, as the Bianconeri are unbeaten in their last 11 league matches at the Allianz Stadium, having recorded four straight wins.
They have also scored at least two goals in their previous six home league matches while keeping five clean sheets.
After a stellar start to their Serie A campaign, Udinese’s form has dipped slightly of late in the Italian top flight.
In fact, Andrea Sottil’s team heads into this clash on the back of an eight-game winless run in the Italian top flight, having drawn six and lost two matches in the run.
A 1-1 home draw with Empoli last time out in Serie A was their fourth draw in five league outings. The game also saw under 2.5 goals scored for the fourth time in five top-flight matches.
Udinese have struggled for away form of late, as they have failed to win in four league games on their travels.
Forebet predicts that Juventus’ recent winning run in the league will continue with the Bianconeri recording a victory in a high-scoring encounter.
