    The weekend’s Serie A action concludes with a clash at the Allianz Stadium, as two off-form teams bid to establish a sense of consistency.

    Juventus welcome Fiorentina to Turin on Sunday evening, with both sides looking to end winless runs in the Italian top flight.

    Can the Old Lady further cement a top-four berth? Or will La Viola snatch a positive result on the road? Keep reading to find out what Forebet’s predictive analytics model forecasts.

    Juventus head into Sunday’s clash on the back of a 2-0 victory over Lazio in the first leg of their Coppa Italia semi-final showdown.

    However, Max Allegri’s side have failed to win any of their last four Serie A matches, recording two draws and two defeats to drop to third in the table.

    To make matters worse for Juventus, they have managed to win just one of their previous nine league encounters, failing to win four of their last five at home.

    It is also worth noting that Allegri’s men have conceded six goals in their previous five home league games, after conceding just four in their opening 10.

    Fiorentina also won the first leg of their Coppa Italia semi-final in midweek, claiming a 1-0 victory over Atalanta to take control of the tie.

    Like Juventus, though, La Viola have struggled in Serie A of late, managing to win just one of their previous six league games.

    When you look at the bigger picture, Fiorentina have registered only two victories in their last 11 Serie A encounters, recording four draws and five losses along the way.

    Having won just one of their previous nine away league outings, La Viola will likely struggle to pick up a positive result in Turn this weekend.

    Head-to-head: Fiorentina have won only two of their last 13 Serie A meetings with Juventus, suffering eight defeats in this fixture since 2017.

    The broader H2H stats show us that Juventus have lost just five of their previous 41 league matches against La Viola, with under 2.5 goals coming in each of the last six.

    Team news: Juventus will be without injured striker Arkadiusz Milik this weekend, while Paul Pogba and Nicolo Fagioli are banned for the foreseeable future.

    Fiorentina have reported no fresh injury problems ahead of Sunday’s clash, meaning Vincenzo Italiano has a full-strength squad at his disposal.

    It is no secret that both sides are struggling for consistency right now, but Juve’s superior head-to-head record should give them an advantage.

    Forebet predicts that Juventus will claim a narrow victory over Fiorentina, keeping a clean sheet for good measure.
