[Serie A] Juventus face tough test, Atalanta worth a punt!

Match Stats

Suffering their fifth consecutive defeat at Stadio Maradona, Juventus faced a setback against struggling Serie A champions Napoli last week, effectively extinguishing any lingering hopes of a late Scudetto challenge. Despite Federico Chiesa's 81st-minute equalizer reigniting Juventus' chances, Giacomo Raspadori's late strike as stoppage time approached left the visitors empty-handed once more. They now find themselves trailing league leaders Inter Milan by a significant 15-point margin.Juventus not only secured just one victory in their last eight league encounters against La Dea but Sunday's visitors are also unbeaten in their last five visits to the Allianz Stadium. This marks a significant turnaround for Gian Piero Gasperini's side, especially considering their previous streak of eight consecutive losses at the same venue. Until the final fixture of February, Atalanta had been performing exceptionally well in Serie A.

Despite their recent defeats to formidable opponents like Inter and Bologna, the Bergamaschi had previously enjoyed an impressive run of eight top-flight matches without a loss. The setback against Bologna was particularly crucial as it was considered a crucial match in the race for Champions League qualification.
