Juventus vs Venezia prediction and betting tips on December 14, 2024
Game Prediction
On December 14, 2024, during Matchday 16 of Serie A, Juventus will face Venezia. In Turin, the hosts are expected to secure an effortless victory over the newly promoted side.
Our prediction for the Juventus vs Venezia match
The "Old Lady" has endured several mediocre seasons, and Massimiliano Allegri's return to the helm was not a cure-all. It wasn't until last season that Juventus managed to climb to third place and win the Coppa Italia. However, Allegri's departure after a poor summer campaign came as no surprise. Venezia, on the other hand, had a resurgence last season, earning promotion back to Serie A through the playoffs.
That success was achieved under Paolo Vanoli, who left for Torino in the summer. Without him, the newcomers have struggled significantly: despite occasional wins and draws, most matches end in defeat, leaving Venezia firmly rooted at the bottom of the table. Their recent 2-2 draw against Como was a rare positive result. Juventus, now led by Thiago Motta, poached from Bologna, has also failed to live up to expectations. Despite being undefeated in Serie A, the team has drawn too many matches, including a 2-2 stalemate with Bologna, Motta’s former club. However, a 2-0 home victory over a struggling Manchester City was a highlight.
Initially impressive, Di Gregorio has lost his invincibility and even his starting spot. Juventus now concedes more than half a goal per game but compensates by scoring roughly one goal more on average. Venezia’s attack, however, falls short, averaging just 0.8 goals per match, while conceding over twice as many at 1.8 per game.
