Juventus vs Bologna Prediction: Time for Bianconeri to change the situation

Juventus have been terrible at the start of the season, so much that they lost to Monza in the last round. Will the Bianconeri redeem themselves against Bologna? Let's pick a few bets at once.

Having made an excellent start to the transfer market, the Bianconeri entered the new season with new hopes. However, so far, Juve have been unable to produce consistent results. On the previous matchday Massimiliano Allegri's side even lost to Monza (0-1) after being held penalized at the end of the first half following Angel Di Maria's sending-off. Juventus have three defeats in their last five matches in all competitions. The last win for Juventus came on August 31, when they defeated Spezia 2-0. 

The era of Sinisa Mihajlovic at Bologna came to an end. The Red and Blues are now being coached by Thiago Motta, who performed excellently for Spezia last season. So far, Bologna have a win and a loss under their new coach. First, the Red and Blues defeated Fiorentina 2-1 at home, and then unexpectedly lost 0-1 to Empoli as hosts as well. Bologna finished seven rounds with only six points and a mere two points ahead of the relegation zone.

• Juventus: Marley Ake, Angel Di Maria, Federico Chiesa, Kaio Jorge, Daouda Peeters, Paul Pogba will not play. Fabio Miretti is questionable;
• Bologna: Adama Soumaoro will not play. Musa Barrow is questionable.

Juventus must win at some poin. Max Allegri's team's losing streak has gone on too long. Bologna seems a great candidate to break it. The Red and Blues have yet to get used to the demands of their new coach and, in the meantime, Bologna are very vulnerable, as the previous round's match against Empoli showed.

Prediction: Juventus will win.
