Juventus has won the last six matches in a row. The last 12 head to head wins consecutively were from Juventus. The overall record in wins is 23 wins and one loss in favor of. Juventus The combined scorecard for the last games in Juventus play ground is 13 goals for Juventus and 3 for Chievo Even goals favor Juventus this game is automatically Juventus win
I don’t expect Chievo to prove to be a real threat, I can’t even see them putting up the fight they had in the first meeting. Juve won that one 3-2, but Chievo have struggled since then. They’ve got just eight points, only picking up their first win of the season in their final match of 2018. The Gialloblu have scored six times and picked up four points on the road in Serie A this season, now they head to the side with the league’s best home record, after winning 90% of their matches here in the first half of the season.
Really, the big question is how will Juve win? Despite their quality and attacking talent, Juve are still not a side who go out to blitz teams. They always keep things tight, while they’ve conceded just five goals at home in the league this term. The champions have a clean sheet in 53% of their league games, and I expect them to hold off a Chievo side who have failed to score in almost half of their trips.
Chievo have conceded 1.84 goals per game, while Juve have come just short of averaging two goals per game at home. That remains a strong tally from Juve, but only 20% of their home games have seen over 3.5 goals. They are yet to score more than three times in the league this term, while they’re unlikely to concede here. With that in mind, my pick is Juve to win with fewer than four goals to be scored.
