Juventus vs Frosinone Prediction & Betting Tips (25 February)

Long in the fight with Inter for the Scudetto, Juventus is experiencing a serious slump these days, which has almost wiped out its title chances. The Old Lady still occupies 2nd place in Serie A but is now, with 1 more match, 9 units behind the leader. With 9 points ahead of 5th place, qualification for the next Champions League is on very good track. On the tough side, the Bianconeri have not won any of their last 4 championship matches, 2 draws and 2 defeats. After losing to Inter 1-0 and Udinese 0-1, they were held to a draw at Hellas Verona last weekend 2-2. Still present in the Italian Cup, Juventus will face Lazio in the semi-final.

For its return to Serie A, Frosinone is logically battling in the second part of the table. The promoted team is currently 15th in Serie A and is 3 points ahead of the first relegated team. Matias Soule's teammates have been getting dangerously close to the red zone for several weeks. Indeed, they have only won against relegated Cagliari 3-1 in the last 12 days, for 2 draws and 9 defeats. Lacking confidence, Frosinone remains on 3 logical setbacks suffered against AC Milan 2-3, Fiorentina 5-1 and Roma last weekend 0-3.

Juventus still has to deal with the defections of long-time absent defender De Sciglio and replacements Perin and Kean. Added to this is the injury to important defender Danilo. We should also not forget to mention the long suspensions of midfielders Pogba and Fagioli. Returning to the field last weekend after missing a match, Dusan Vlahovic (13 goals and 3 assists in SA) scored straight away. The very important midfielder Rabiot also found the net against Hellas Verona. This winter, the Old Lady enlisted defender Tiago Djalo (Lille) and promising attacking midfielder Carlos Alcaraz (Southampton) but the two men are playing little or not at all for the moment.

Frosinone's squad is still very weakened this week -end. Taking their place in the infirmary are the starting defenders Bonifazi, Marchizza and Oyono, the recruits Ghedjemis and Zortea as well as the usual replacements Kalaj, Lusuardi (defenders), Garritano (midfielder) and Cuni (attacker). The important defender Romagnoli is, for his part, back from suspension. Loaned by Juventus, midfielder Barrenechea and striker Soule (10 goals and 2 assists in SA) are playing a major role this season and should be keen to do well this weekend. During the winter transfer window, defenders Bonifazi (Bologna) and Valeri (Cremonese) and striker Seck (Torino) arrived at the club.
