Prediction: Juventus to win 3-0
Best Odds: 9/1
Venezia and Juventus will lock horns with each other in Serie A this coming weekend. The match between Eusebio Di Francesco’s side and Igor Tudor’s team will be held at Pier Luigi Penzo and is scheduled to kick off at 2pm UK time on Sunday.
Venezia
Venezia have a modest club based in Italy that will be happy to just stay in Serie A for another season. I Leoni alati ended up third in the Serie B table last season and won promotion to the Italian top flight for the 2024-25 campaign via the playoffs.
Eusebio Di Francesco’s side have struggled this season, just as expected, and could go down to the second tier of Italian football. Venezia are second from bottom in the Serie A table with 29 points from 37 games, two points behind 17th-placed Lecce and Empoli in 18th.
Venezia will head into the Serie A match against Juventus at Pier Luigi Penzo on the back of a 3-0 defeat to Cagliari on the road in Serie A. It came after a 2-1 victory over Fiorentina in front of their fans in the league, which followed a 1-1 draw with Torino in Turin in Serie A.
Team News:
Venezia are likely to line up in a 3-5-2 formation against Juventus. Andrei Radu will be in goal for the home team. Joel Schingtienne, Jay Idzes and Fali Cande will be the three defenders. Enrique Perez, Hans Nicolussi Caviglia and Gianluca Busio will be the three central midfielders. Alessio Zerbin and Mikael Egill Ellertsson will be the two wing-backs. John Yeboah and Gaetano Oristanio will be the two centre-forwards for Venezia.
Juventus
Juventus are one of the biggest clubs in Italy and had big aims for this season. Under head coach Thiago Motta this season, the Bianconeri were aiming to win Serie A as well as make an impact in the UEFA Champions League.
However, Motta lasted just nine months at Juventus and was sacked in March. Igor Tudor replaced Motta, and the Bianconeri have done better since. La Vecchia Signora are fourth in the Serie A table at the moment with 67 points from 37 matches, a point ahead of fifth-placed AS Roma and two points clear of Lazio, who are currently sixth.
Juventus will head into the Serie A match against Venezia at Pier Luigi Penzo on the back of a 2-0 victory over Udinese in the league. It came after a 1-1 draw with Lazio away from home at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome in Serie A, which followed a 1-1 draw with Bologna on the road in the league.

Juventus are likely to line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation against Venezia. Michele Di Gregorio will be in goal for the Bianconeri.
