⚽ Juventus (Italy 1st Division 3rd / Last 5 matches: Win-Draw-Win-Win-Draw)
Juventus prefers a 4-2-3-1 formation and employs a strategy that emphasizes ball possession and stable defense. In their last home match against Cagliari, they recorded a 1-1 draw, and despite their dominant performance, they had to settle for just one point. In this match, they plan to build their attack around Ildiz (LW), but the absence of key players such as Gonzalez (RW), Koopmeiners (RW), and Kostic (AMC) is expected to significantly weaken their offensive capabilities. The defense is unlikely to receive much support from Vlahovic (FW), so scoring a lot of goals may be difficult. Despite the injury to Bremer (DC), the partnership of Gatti (DC) and Caluru (DC) maintains stability, and their overall defensive strength is not bad.
- Absentee Issues: Bremer (DF / ★★★★), McKennie (MF / ★★★), Koopmeiners (MF / ★★★★), Gonzalez (FW / ★★★★), Milik (FW / ★★★), Conceição (FW / ★★★)
⚽ Lazio (Italy 1st Division 4th / Last 5 matches: Loss-Win-Win-Win-Win)
Lazio uses a 4-2-3-1 formation, focusing on high pressing and quick transitions as their strategy. They recently won 2-1 against Empoli in a home match, showcasing focused attack plays for a comeback victory. In this match, they plan to build their attack around Zaccagni (LW) and Dia (AMC), but given Isaksen's (RW) struggles, an attack biased towards the left side is anticipated. The performance of Castellanos (FW) could be a variable. In the defense, Romagnoli (DC) and Hila (DC) demonstrate solid chemistry, providing stable defensive performances. However, the injury to Guendouzi (DM) may affect their defensive balance.
- Absentee Issues: Lazzari (DF / ★★★★), Guendouzi (MF / ★★★★)
Ⓜ️ Result Prediction
Juventus is in a situation where their attacking power is diminished due to key players' absences, while Lazio has some weaknesses in defensive balance. Both teams are expected to engage in a possession-based approach, making scoring opportunities limited. Thus, a draw and an under (based on 2.5 goals) betting strategy seem suitable for this match.
