Saturday 6th May 2017 – Kickoff: 1945hrs
Football – Italy – Serie A Betting Tips
Juventus received a huge boost in their quest to lift the Champions League trophy during the week as they registered a valuable 2-0 win away at Monaco in the semi-final first leg, as they now turn their attentions back to the domestic Serie A tonight.
Juventus are in line for a monumental treble, but they head into a difficult clash this evening in the Turin derby against Torino although they do have home advantage and also hold a nine point lead over second placed Roma ahead of this weekend’s action.
The hosts current league position is down to their amazing winning streak on home turf where they’ve recorded 33 wins on the trot – could this be the 34th? It’s likely that manager Allegri will make some changes today prior to their important second leg of the Champions League next week, but they should still have enough quality on show tonight to take the points.
Visitors Torino currently sit mid-table in the Italian top flight, a position which is largely thanks to their solid form at their Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino where they’ve suffered just one defeat all season in Serie A.
In addition, Torino come into this clash on the back of six games without defeat which includes wins at Cagliari and Chievo in recent weeks, but overall their form on the road has been below par as their record of 4-5-8 26/32 reflects.
The visitors’ main asset though is their striker and leading goalscorer Belotti (25 goals) up front, and he’ll need to be closely monitored if Juventus are to come away with the points this evening.
