Juventus, reeling from a loss to Inter Milan, appears to have hit a rough patch, going three games without a win.
On Sunday, the Allianz Stadium will host a critical Serie A matchup between Juventus, currently second in the standings, and Frosinone, who are embroiled in a relegation battle in 15th place.
This has undoubtedly dented their confidence and put their second-place position in jeopardy.
Despite being fortunate to escape defeat in their recent game against Verona, where they came back from behind twice, questions are being raised about the team's defense, which, despite being one of the best in Serie A, has shown vulnerabilities lately.
Frosinone, on the other hand, has struggled to maintain any form of consistency this season, losing their last three matches, including a defeat to Roma.
Despite putting up a spirited fight and registering 25 shots on target against Roma, Frosinone's defensive frailties were exposed as they conceded 52 shots - the highest in the league. Coach Eusebio Di Francesco faces a significant challenge in shoring up his team's defense to avoid relegation.
Trends and Insights: Juventus boasts an impressive home record, undefeated in 27 of their last 31 league games at the Allianz Stadium.
In contrast, Frosinone has been on a losing streak, having lost their last three Serie A matches.
The historical head-to-head record further tilts in favor of Juventus, who have won their last four encounters against Frosinone in Serie A.
Team News: Juventus will be without key players Danilo, Mattia Perin, and Mattia De Sciglio due to injuries, potentially affecting their lineup and strategy.
Similarly, Frosinone faces a significant absentee list, including Farès Ghedjemis, Mateus Lusuardi, Marvin Çuni, Kevin Bonifazi, Anthony Oyono, Riccardo Marchizza, and Sergio Kalaj, further complicating their survival fight.
Given the current form, historical performances, and the urgency of the situation for both teams, Forebet predicts that Juventus will find a way to return to winning ways, complicating Frosinone's battle for Serie A survival.
This match at the Allianz Stadium is not just a clash of positions but a test of resilience for Juventus and a fight for survival for Frosinone.
