Juventus vs Monza: Preview and Prediction Serie A fixtures scheduled for last Monday were officially postponed following the Pope’s demise, which did affect Juventus’s game with Parma. The Bianconeri were under pressure coming into that game as Bologna had won their fixture against Inter Milan and moved inside the top four places. Igor Tudor’s men produced a dismal performance against Parma, as a Mateo Pellegrino goal right before the halftime whistle set things back for Juventus. ............ Meanwhile, Juventus are seen as one of the favourites to finish in the top four places given the chance they have with the remaining fixtures. After this game with Monza, the Bianconeri will travel to Bologna, their direct rivals for the fourth spot, as well as Lazio, who are currently level on points with Tudor’s men. Securing wins in both those games will more or less guarantee the fourth spot, but dropping points there will probably end their hopes altogether. ............ Team News & Tactics Juventus Long-term absentees Juan Cabal, Arkadiusz Milik and Gleison Bremer are joined by Samuel Mbangula and Federico Gatti in the treatment room, as the duo will not part take in proceedings against Monza. The big worry for Tudor is the potential absence of key striker Dusan Vlahovic, who went off with a thigh problem against Parma. Randal Kolo Muani did start alongside the Serbian for the first time on Wednesday without making any real impact. The Frenchman is not seen as a starter for the new manager, but given the circumstances, Kolo Muani will lead the line in Vlahovic’s absence on Sunday. Elsewhere, there are not many changes expected although the likes of Andrea Cambiaso might come into the picture, while Kenan Yildiz should be fit to start this game. Probable Lineup (3-4-2-1) – Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Veiga, Kelly; McKennie, Locatelli, Thuram, Cambiaso; Gonzales, Yildiz; Kolo Muani Monza ............ Probable Lineup (3-5-2) – Turati; Pereira, Caldirola, Carboni; Birindelli, Castrovilli, Bianco, Akpro, Kyriakopoulos; Mota, Caprari Key Stats Juventus have won their last 3 matches against Monza in all competitions. Juventus are only one point behind 4th-placed Bologna. Monza have lost 7 of their last 8 matches in Serie A. Monza’s relegation will be confirmed if they lose and Lecce wins their game. Player to Watch Randal Kolo Muani There’s a big conundrum for Tudor to select his starting striker, although he has been clear that Vlahovic leads the line for this Juventus side. However, the Serbain’s absence against Monza will present Kolo Muani with an opportunity to impress the new manager and stake a permanent claim to the No.9 spot for the remainder of the season. ............ Prediction Juventus 2-0 Monza Nesta’s side have struggled to score and that might be the case when they visit Turin on Sunday. The relegation-threatened side are on the verge of dropping down and it’s only a matter of time before things are confirmed. While there will be pressure on this Monza side to finish on a high note, they might succumb to the pressure against Juventus. Meanwhile, Tudor was brought into this team in mid-season to finish in the top four, and he’s close to achieving that. There are challenges, but the Bianconeri should position themselves strongly in this race, as they will win this clash against Monza before facing their direct rivals like Bologna and Lazio. .

Gentile: ‘Juventus defending made me so angry, I turned off the television’ Lloyd Kelly’s marking when Juventus lost to Parma made legend Claudio Gentile so angry he ‘had to turn off the television. You don’t see people marking properly anymore.’ ............ The situation irritated many Bianconeri fans, none more so than World Cup winner Gentile, who has marked some of the greatest in the game’s history. “I watch every Juventus match, but often I don’t manage to get to the 90th minute. I get so angry, I have to turn off the television,” Gentile said. “The last time it happened was on Wednesday, against Parma. When I saw how Kelly was marking Pellegrino for the goal, I just couldn’t take it anymore.” ............ “I see very little of the real Juventus, the kind that I know. Perhaps Kenan Yildiz, a real talent who I think l’Avvocato (Gianni Agnelli) would’ve liked, but he’s not enough,” explained the legend. “The rest just leaves me bitter, like the results. In my day, we had figures who from the start would tell lads, this is Juventus, there are certain things you cannot do. It is a different club. “Juve is a unique side for its winning mentality. When I was there, finishing second was almost a tragedy, now they are clinging to fourth place. “They should at least be challenging for the Scudetto and not be so far from the top.” ............ Would Gentile be in favour of keeping Tudor for next season, or bringing Antonio Conte back from his tension at Napoli? “Antonio is a winner and he knows Juventus like few others, so his return would be positive. It’s always useful to have people who know how to explain to players where they are and the jersey they are wearing. “Giorgio Chiellini also has the Juventus DNA and deserves to be part of this club now”. ............ .

Juventus picks Serie A star as favourite to replace Dusan Vlahovic Juventus need to add a striker to their squad in the summer and have identified several names on their radar. At the end of the season, the Bianconeri are expected to offload Dusan Vlahovic and send Randal Kolo Muani back to Paris Saint-Germain when his loan spell concludes. This would leave them without a recognised striker and with a fresh opportunity to rebuild their attacking options for the next campaign. The club is carefully considering various possibilities, and within Serie A, they have targeted two attackers from Atalanta. ............ Among the Atalanta players of interest, Juventus could approach the Bergamo club for either Ademola Lookman or Mateo Retegui, although financial considerations make it unlikely that both would be signed. The Bianconeri have made their preference clear, with the report stating that Juventus would rather move for Retegui to replace Vlahovic. ............ Retegui has been in outstanding form throughout this season and is on course to finish as the leading scorer in Serie A. Juventus believe he is ready to step up and become the main striker at the Allianz Stadium, capable of leading the line effectively for a side aiming to challenge for major honours once again. La Dea is known for being a selling club and is likely to allow him to depart as long as Juventus present a reasonable offer or meets their financial expectations. ............ .

What could become of Giuntoli if Juventus does not make the top four Cristiano Giuntoli is feeling the heat at Juventus as the club’s poor season has raised questions about the sporting director’s decisions. Hired to oversee a rebuild and return the Bianconeri to the top of Italian football, Giuntoli has been given full control over transfers and managerial appointments. However, his efforts so far have yielded mixed results, and the pressure is mounting. ............ This season, however, has seen Juventus struggle for consistency. After parting ways with Allegri, Giuntoli appointed Thiago Motta to usher in a new era. But Motta failed to meet expectations and has already been dismissed. Igor Tudor has since taken over, but the team remains in a battle to secure a Champions League spot, a far cry from the dominant Juventus sides of recent years. ............ Despite heavy investment in players over the last two transfer windows, Juve have lacked identity and fluidity on the pitch. This underperformance has naturally turned the spotlight on Giuntoli. However the club has no intention of sacking him just yet. Instead, they are planning to bring in Juventus legend Giorgio Chiellini to work alongside him in a key leadership role. Chiellini’s return would add experience, stability, and a strong connection to the club’s traditions. The decision to pair Giuntoli with Chiellini signals that Juventus still has faith in the sporting director but wants to strengthen the structure around him. ............ For now, though, the board remains behind him, but the margin for error is quickly shrinking. .

Serie A Preview: Juventus vs Monza – Team News, Line-ups & Prediction Juventus dropped out of the Serie A top four on the back of a horrendous 1-0 defeat at Parma on Wednesday. Despite attempting 16 shots, the record-time Italian champions relinquished their three-match unbeaten run under Tudor’s interim tenure (W2, D1), amplifying the need for all three points against the division’s bottom performers. Only one point adrift of fourth-placed Bologna, Juventus cannot afford a slip-up at the Allianz Stadium, where they’ve reigned supreme in 2024/25. Indeed, they have only lost one home league outing all season (W9, D7), beating bottom-half Lecce 2-1 in their only such contest under the Croatian manager. ............ Match Preview Juventus Wednesday’s heartache at Parma has eliminated wriggle room from the equation, forcing Juventus to treat every game in the run-in like a final. With Tudor’s honeymoon period over, it’s time to pick up the slack, and there’s no better place than Turin to accommodate Juventus’ immediate return to winning ways. Indeed, Juventus have emerged victorious from six of their last seven league outings at the Allianz Stadium (L1), reinforcing their confidence in finding a way back into the win column this weekend. Furthermore, three of their five remaining league games come against bottom-half teams, keeping their Champions League aspirations firmly alive. Juventus have been ruthless in home matches against sides outside the top eight at the start of this round, racking up an impressive seven wins and three draws in such encounters. With five of those seven triumphs accompanied by a clean sheet, one goal may potentially help the Bianconeri avoid back-to-back league losses for the second time this term. Monza ............ Team News In addition to long-term absentees Arkadiusz Milik, Gleison Bremer, and Juan Cabal, Juventus cannot call upon the services of Federico Gatti and Dusan Vlahovic for this showdown. As if that’s not worrying enough, Tudor will likely be without Teun Koopmeiners and Samuel Mbangula. ............ Juventus vs Monza Potential Starting Line-ups Juventus (3-4-2-1): Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Veiga, Kelly; McKennie, Locatelli, Thuram, Cambiaso; Gonzalez, Yildiz; Kolo Muani. Monza (3-5-2): Turati; Pereira, Caldirola, Carboni; Birindelli, Castrovilli, Bianco, Akpa Akpro, Kyriakopoulos; Mota, Caprari Juventus vs Monza Prediction Not even an injury-hit Juventus side should struggle against this Monza team. While we wouldn’t go as far as to predict a thrashing, this should be another day in the office for Tudor’s top-four contenders. Prediction: Juventus to Win .

Nesta expects a ‘poisoned’ Juventus team to face his side Monza Manager Alessandro Nesta has admitted that Juventus’ recent defeat to Parma could have a powerful psychological impact ahead of their next match this weekend. The Bianconeri are fighting to secure a top-four finish and cannot afford any more slip-ups as the season draws to a close. Their loss in the previous fixture has increased the pressure on the players, and Igor Tudor must now ensure the team responds with determination and clarity. ............ Nesta believes this fixture comes at a bad time for his side. He expects Juventus to react with aggression and intensity after the setback against Parma and has warned that Monza must prepare for a strong response from their opponents. He said, “They are a strong team and will be poisoned after the defeat in Parma , the stadium will be very hot, we will have to know how to read the moments of the match well.” Juventus will now be looking to take all three points and restore confidence heading into the final stretch of the season. ............ . This match will also serve as a key test for Tudor. Following the disappointment against Parma, the manager needs a response from his squad. If the team underperforms again, questions will be asked about his leadership and whether he is the right figure to guide Juventus beyond this campaign. ............ .

Juventus team news: Two major concerns for Monza, Kolo Muani chance Randal Kolo Muani is expected to lead the line for Juventus in their upcoming Serie A match against Monza, as Dusan Vlahovic will not be available, nor will Teun Koopmeiners, but there could be a return to the starting line-up for Kenan Yildiz. ............ Igor Tudor’s side currently sit in fifth, one point behind Bologna in the Champions League spots following a 1-0 loss against Parma on Wednesday. Juve were without Koopmeiners for the Parma match: He did not travel with the rest of the squad, and is also expected to miss the Monza match on Sunday as well. Dusan Vlahovic started against Parma, but did not reappear for the start of the second half. It has since been confirmed that he is struggling with a muscular overload in his thigh, which means that he is expected to miss the Monza game as well. That means that Kolo Muani, who was given his first start under Tudor for the Parma loss, is in line to start in his natural position at centre-forward. ............ .

Tudor welcomes Mbangula back but key player trained alone Igor Tudor faces a tough challenge as he attempts to steer Juventus into next season’s Champions League. Appointed as manager just last month, the former midfielder inherited a team short on belief and struggling for form. Although recent results offered hope that Juventus were beginning to rediscover their rhythm, the loss to Parma has served as a harsh reminder that consistency remains elusive. With just a few games left to play this season, every fixture now carries enormous weight. Their next opponent is Monza, a team that has proved tricky for Juventus in previous encounters. ............ There is some positive news on that front. Samuel Mbangula has returned to full training and took part in the most recent session at the Allianz Stadium. His availability could prove useful as the team looks to bounce back. In contrast, Teun Koopmeiners remains a concern. The midfielder is still recovering from his injury and trained separately from the group, which casts doubt over his involvement in the upcoming match. Juventus will be hoping that he can recover in time to feature before the season concludes, but for now, his condition remains uncertain. ............ .

Juventus will sacrifice half their team if they cannot make the Champions League Juventus are now at serious risk of missing out on a top-four finish in Serie A, a scenario that could have significant consequences both financially and in terms of the squad’s future composition. The club currently boasts some of the highest-paid players in Italian football, and participation in the UEFA Champions League is essential for maintaining financial stability. Simply qualifying for the group stage provides a substantial cash injection, and the men in black and white are keen to secure that income to support their ongoing sporting project. ............ If Juventus do not secure qualification, the ramifications could be severe. The club is prepared to initiate a significant squad overhaul, with as many as half of the current players potentially facing the exit. Among those who could be sold are Mattia Perin, Douglas Luiz, Andrea Cambiaso and Nicolo Savona. Such a clear-out would not only reflect the disappointment of missing out on Europe’s top competition but also highlight the financial necessity of adjusting the wage structure in the absence of Champions League revenue. ............ .

Former Juventus star blasts them for not replacing Allegri with Conte Juventus has experienced considerable instability over the last two seasons, having appointed three managers in this short period, two of whom have taken charge this term alone. This level of managerial turnover is far from indicative of the stability that a club of Juventus’ stature should aim for. The situation could have been markedly different had they chosen to replace Max Allegri with a more suitable successor. ............ The club’s choice was Thiago Motta, a manager with limited experience and a reputation built largely on his one successful season with Bologna. This appointment, while intriguing, was a considerable gamble for Juventus. In hindsight, many believe the club missed an opportunity to bring in a more experienced and proven winner like Antonio Conte, who ultimately joined Napoli. ............ Motta’s tenure was short-lived, and he was eventually replaced by Igor Tudor. This further raised doubts about Juventus’ decision-making process, particularly in their failure to bring in Conte when they had the chance. Marco Tardelli expressed his bewilderment over this choice, stating, “We understood that sending Allegri away and not taking Conte was a serious mistake, a void that was not filled by either Thiago Motta or Giuntoli. It is useless to go rummaging through a cauldron full of names, the ones who can take control of the situation are them: Conte and Allegri. They know what is needed and they are useful for managing those who have nothing to do with football.” ............ .

Beh erano dovute direi. Ció non toglie che giudicare gli altri sia sempre sbagliato specialmente se non si sanno i motivi dietro alle apparenze.

Preview: Juventus vs. Monza - prediction, team news, lineups Having slipped out of Serie A's top four earlier this week, Juventus aim to boost their Champions League hopes on Sunday, when they host relegation-bound Monza. Juve's latest setback leaves them struggling to salvage something from a dismal campaign, while their visitors could have demotion confirmed by another defeat. Match preview After all Serie A fixtures on Easter Monday were postponed following the death of Pope Francis, Juventus saw their trip to Parma hastily rescheduled for Wednesday, when they were ultimately humbled at a jubilant Stadio Tardini. The Bianconeri lost 1-0 to the lowly Crociati, producing no shots on target before the break, before a late flurry of attempts failed to force an equaliser - to make matters worse, goal-shy striker Dusan Vlahovic was taken off at half time due to injury. Recent wins for Bologna and Lazio also mean Juve's task of securing Champions League football has been complicated, and they are among six sides still vying for two available places. Drafted in to replace Thiago Motta last month, interim coach Igor Tudor has now suffered his first defeat since returning to Turin - following two wins and one draw - and any more setbacks could prove fatal. Not only do Juventus require entry to UEFA's top competition for reasons of prestige, but financial meltdown may await if the two-time European champions fail to make Italy's top four. So, pressure is now piled on Tudor to avoid an embarrassing result against rock-bottom Monza, who Juve beat 2-1 earlier this season. Though they memorably toppled the Turin giants twice in their debut Serie A campaign, Monza have since lost three times to Juventus, including that home defeat in November's reverse fixture. ............ Team News A regular starter under Igor Tudor, having previously been cold-shouldered by Thiago Motta, Juve's top scorer Dusan Vlahovic is a doubt for Sunday's game after straining his thigh against Parma. Paired for only the second time with fellow striker Randal Kolo Muani, Vlahovic made little impact before his removal, so it remains to be seen who will feature up front in Tudor's favoured 3-4-2-1 formation. While Kenan Yildiz was passed fit to play a cameo role in midweek - and the Turkish star could now play from the start - Teun Koopmeiners is still struggling with an Achilles problem. The hosts are also without Federico Gatti (leg) and Samuel Mbangula (thigh), plus long-term absentees Juan Cabal, Arkadiusz Milik and Bremer. ............ Juventus possible starting lineup: Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Veiga, Kelly; McKennie, Locatelli, Thuram, Cambiaso; Gonzalez, Yildiz; Kolo Muani Monza possible starting lineup: Turati; Pereira, Caldirola, Carboni; Birindelli, Castrovilli, Bianco, Akpa Akpro, Kyriakopoulos; Mota, Caprari We say: Juventus 1-0 Monza Even a brittle Juventus side surely cannot fail to beat Monza, who are limping towards the finish line at the end of an awful season. Without a reliable striker, though, the Bianconeri are far from prolific - so their margin of victory may be slim. .

Juventus monitor Belgian defender after making Cambiaso available for sale This could potentially be Andrea Cambiaso’s final season as a Juventus player, following interest from Manchester City in January. The Premier League champions’ approach took Juventus by surprise, as they had not expected such significant interest in the player. Nevertheless, the Bianconeri were open to negotiating his departure from the Allianz Stadium, as Cambiaso had shown promise but was not considered irreplaceable. The prospect of a move to Manchester City seemed exciting, and Juventus were prepared to listen to offers. However, despite the early interest, Manchester City did not pursue the move further, and Cambiaso remained at Juventus until the end of the season. ............ If Cambiaso does leave, Juventus will be in the market for a new full-back, and one of their top targets for that role is Maxim De Cuyper of Club Brugge. Juve have been keeping a close eye on De Cuyper for several months, and they believe he could be the ideal candidate to bolster their defensive options. Juventus remains interested in De Cuyper and is monitoring his situation closely. The Belgian defender has impressed with his consistent performances in the Belgian Pro League, and Juventus sees him as a player who could bring added strength to their backline. Club Brugge reportedly values De Cuyper at €25 million, and if Cambiaso is sold, Juventus would be in a strong position to move for the Belgian. ............ .

Roccati questions the balance in the Juventus team Most of the players in the current Juventus squad were not part of the club five seasons ago. The Bianconeri have undergone continuous transformation, with significant changes made to the team at the beginning of the current season. Since their last league title, Juventus have been strategically restructuring their squad in the hope of initiating a new cycle, with Thiago Motta at the helm for this term. ............ Marco Roccati has expressed concern about whether the team has been built with the correct balance. He stated, “Juventus, without this setback in Parma, was the favourite and the race of the others would have already ended. Juve is one of the youngest and most inexperienced teams at the international level, despite having great quality. Maybe it wasn’t assembled with balance, but it has quality, not to win the Scudetto. It certainly was to win against Parma.” ............ . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/pundit-questions-the-balance-in-the-juventus-team/

Tether increase Juventus stake to become second-highest investors Cryptocurrency firm Tether have confirmed that they have purchased more shares in Juventus, and that they are now the second-largest investors in the Serie A giants. Back in February, Tether purchased a minority stake in Juventus, understood to be around 8.2% of the club’s shares, which brought just over 5% of voting rights. After their most recent acquisition, Tether now own 10.12% of the club’s shares, and have around 6.18% of the voting rights. ............ EXOR, the holding company attributed to the Agnelli family, still owns a clear majority of the shares in Juventus with 65.4%. Tether now owns 10.1% of the Bianconeri shares, which means they have overtaken investment management company Lindell Train, who now own 8.7% of the club’s shares. The remaining 15.4% is in the form of floating shares. . Read more -> https://football-italia.net/tether-now-second-highest-juventus-investors/

Juventus make a decision on Koopmeiners following disappointing campaign Juventus have already set their plans for Teun Koopmeiners ahead of the summer transfer session, reveals a report in the Italian press. ............ The Old Lady forked out a figure in the region of 60 million euros, thus making Koopmeiners one of the club’s biggest investments in recent years. ............ However, the attacking midfielder has only produced four goals and three assists in 40 appearances in all competitions. These stats pale in comparison to the numbers he used to register during his time in Bergamo. But the Bianconeri are still keen to keep the player beyond next summer. ............ It should also be noted that the Serie A giants would likely struggle to offload the player at this stage without registering a capital loss, which is certainly a vital factor to consider. Juventus would have to sell Koopmeiners for a figure in the region of 48 million euros to avoid recording a financial loss. .

Juventus confirm Dusan Vlahovic suffered muscle injury against Parma Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic picked up a knock during Wednesday’s contest against Parma. The club has now shared an update on his condition. ............ As for Vlahovic, it was first believed that Igor Tudor decided to hook him off due to his limited impact in the final third, but it was later revealed that he sustained a muscle injury which cut his outing short. Therefore, the Serbian underwent the necessary tests at the club’s J|Medical Centre on Thursday, and the results confirmed a muscle overload. “Dusan Vlahovic underwent diagnostic examinations today at J|Medical, which revealed a muscular overload in the rectus femoris of his right thigh. His condition will be monitored daily,” revealed the note posted on the official Juventus website. ............ The striker is out of Sunday’s contest against Monza, but the door is open for a potential return in the vital showdown against Bologna at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara on May 4th. With Vlahovic ruled out of the weekend contest, Kolo Muani is almost certain of a starting spot, as he remains the only available striker for Tudor. ............ .

Tudor expected to drop key Juventus star after disappointing display in Parma Juventus manager Igor Tudor wasn’t impressed by the team’s display against Parma on Wednesday, as Andrea Cambiaso could pay the price for another hollow outing. ............ The Old Lady can ill-afford another slip-up in the final five rounds of the campaign, as it could be a deadly blow for the club’s Champions League hopes. So Tudor will be looking to tweak his starting lineup for Sunday’s contest against the doomed Monza. The Juventus boss will reportedly drop Cambiaso who was largely disappointing as a left wingback. Therefore, Weston McKennie is expected to be shifted back to the left flank, with Gonzalez occupying the opposite wing. ............ Finally, Dusan Vlahovic has been ruled out due to muscle overload, so Randal Kolo Muani is the obvious choice to lead the line. .
