Juventus has a different performance from Juventus in previous matches in Serie A. In the Coppa Italia we can see Juventus playing very comfortably and always almost scoring a goal against Lazio. I think winning the first leg with a score of 2-0 is good enough. Because in the second leg Juventus could play more calmly and only had to add to their advantage or maintain their advantage. Lazio won in Serie A but Juventus responded in the Coppa Italia. Now Juventus has the opportunity to lift the trophy in the Coppa Italia if they can finally qualify for the Final and beat their opponents there. But Juventus also still has to maintain their position in Serie A. Don't let the UCL tickets disappear from their hands.

Yes, you are right, Empoli has never won in its last four matches, but I think Empoli will still try to get a goal or a win, because it seems impossible that Empoli will allow themselves to lose five matches in a row. Empoli must continue to rise because the opponent they will face in the next match is Torino, so Empoli must try hard.

Truly..
But, In fact, basically Empoli wasn't that bad this time. It seems that Empoli has done quite well as a small club against the top of the standings.
Yes, Empoli can basically provide quite good resistance, they also try to provide attacks, and are quite accurate in fact. However, Inter's defense is indeed much stronger than Empoli's. Let's look at the statistics below.

From this data, it's pretty good, right? But nevertheless, Inter was much stronger in defense, and their continuous attacks on Empoli eventually became unavoidable. Dimarco, who scored Inter's first goal in the 5th minute, was also the best player in this match. His contribution was very impressive, this was the opening goal for the match which of course was also enough to strengthen Inter to be even stronger.

Juventus managed to beat Lazio 2-0.
The second half was dominated, even as they took the risk to finish third.
Agri has saved his place for now but missing games is still a high risk.
Explains how they took away the penalty awarded to Juventus in the first half, but we still think VAR is a joke.

This is the match of semifinal Coppa Italy and within days finally Juventus can able to get revenge from Lazio that playing at home Juventus with comfortable can win with final scores 2-0 and both teams considers this match is really important so they were playing with all of their key players and first half was ended with no scores because whether it Juventus or Lazio were playing with carefully but in the second half Juventus can slightly taking over the game which makes they can scores from Chiesa and Vlahovic

Juventus seems very serious to facing this match because this is the only chances for them to gets the trophy this season and with this result i am confident they can advances to the final match although second leg will be held at Lazio home ground later and taking about Coppa Italy last time Juventus was able to gets the trophy from this competition is on season 2020/2021 at that time they successfully can beat Atalanta in the final match and now this is also good chances for Allegri to bringing Juventus to gets their first trophy under him and we all know Allegri position as a manager was threaten this because he was failed to bringing Juventus to compete with Inter Milan for the scudetto but if Allegri can gets Coppa Italy trophy maybe he can avoiding to be sacked

This match was more of a revenge match for Juventus against Lazio because lately they have been having difficulties wining Lazio do to the fact that Lazio has studied and understand the pattern of Juventus plus there home advantage and from there things became easy for them, so they were able to use it against Juventus on there last match which ended 1-0 against Juventus and it was sad for Juventus because they no that they have more good performance than Lazio but luck was not on there side on that match.

So on this match Juventus did not give them any opportunity for them to perform and also there home advantage also work for them as they were able to beat Lazio 2-0. However in terms of this Italian league Lazio has tried a bit but there performance is not good enough to qualify for the champions League next season because they have no performance compares to the clubs on the race so probably they will just end the season with the current position they are.

Yes, it was a suffocating defeat, Inter had several challenges that they really missed. And in the end, he failed in the penalty shootouts. And it makes for a great lesson for them. And at least, they have 1 title which is definitely the most prestigious in the Italian league, because they will definitely take the Schudetto this season. It's just a matter of time, the points are so far away from the other clubs, and there are only a few more matches left this season. So, it is certain that Inter will take over the Serie A trophy from Napoli, the champion last season.

Juventus managed to beat Lazio 2-0.

the second half was dominated, they even risked scoring the third goal.
Allegri has saved his place for now but the league standing considering the missing games is still at high risk.

It's inexplicable how they took away the penalty awarded to Juventus in the first half, but we already know VAR is a joke.

In their match against Lazio in the Seria A title, they were not in good shape to take a point even though they fight till the end, but playing away from home while you are not in good form is always hard, and Lazio is trying to maintain their points gap ahead of Napoli.

On this game, I can also see how poor Juventus was, Lazio dominated the match completely, but Juventus were at home and they utilized their chances very well which was why they are lucky to win the match.
Although it will not be easy to lose this title even as they lose the Seria A title due to lack of form, I am expecting them to perform well in other competitions so as to gain more confidence ahead of next season

I remember calling this result about juventus. I said that juventus is not in a good form and there is a very good chance that lazio will actually win this match or drawn. And thats exactly what happened.

In this match juventus actually didnt play well at all in my opinion. They did have some chances but the Lazio goalkeeper has to be given credit. He made some very important saves. If it was not for him, i think it could be very different outcome. And credit goes to Lazio for actually believing in themselves and also be able to win the match at the end. I thought juventus could have marked Marusic better at that moment. This is the 4th match on a row for juventus without a win. Things doesnt look good for them at this moment and i think if they do not improve, it is going to be a problem for them to stay in the top 4 positions even though at this moment it looks like they are safe.

By the way, todays Coppa Italia semi final match ended just now
Result: Juventus 2 - 0 Lazio, perfectly took the revenge  

No Empoli don't have the strength of scoring back. Empoli have never scored any goal in their last four consecutive matches. Perhaps, I was also thinking that Inter will be able to score more goals, but after the early goal scored by DiMarco, it became somehow hard for them to score again.

Not until Sanchez came from the bench and score a very easy goal to an open net with a beautiful assist from Dumfries. The important thing is that they were able to secure all three points from Empoli.

After a bad first half for football, the second half started very well and Juventus scored goals in the 50th and 64th minutes and took the lead 2-0. They now have a big advantage in the first match of the semi-finals. If Lazio wants to have hope for the second match, they must score 1 goal. The atmosphere of the final matches tomorrow may be different and Lazio has not been able to do what it wants in this match so far.

Juventus wants to maintain its scoring advantage before going to the second match. It is now minute 72 and Juventus has achieved the score it wanted.

It looks like Inter are more careful in this match because seeing from 90 minutes of the match actually Empoli is quite able to keep up with the game that Inter did in this match even though in terms of possession and Inter's chances are much better but Empoli also gave a good reaction even though it was not enough to make them get points.

The 2 goals were very good although not too good for those on the handicap but on the other hand it seems like it was enough to keep them comfortably at the top.
Now there are only a few more wins that they need to do to seal the Scudetto this season and I don't think it's a difficult job even though Milan are also powerful at the moment but the big point difference is very difficult to catch up at the moment.

semi-final first leg between Juventus and Lazio is now being played and after a disappointing first half Juventus managed to take the lead through Chiesa.

The top management for Juventus is present at the stadium to witness what could be the last game with Mister Allegri.
For now things seem to be going well.

Yes, Bologna is a surprising team this season because Bologna are in the top four. Although in reality, in previous seasons, Bologna was only the team that finished in the middle of the standings more often. Therefore, of course no one thought Bologna would be able to compete strongly in the topfour, but Bologna really did it this season and that's great. However, even if, for example, Bologna fails to maintain its position in the top four and for example is overtaken by AS Roma, then finishing in fifth position is still a good result for Bologna. Because afterall, as a team that usually only finishes in the middle of the standings but suddenly finishes in the top five, of course that will still be a great achievement for Bologna this season.

Bologna winning against Salernitana has put Juventus in a pretty bad situation right now. Because now they only have two point advantage over Bologna. And I have a feeling that it is not going to be enough. Bologna is showing a far better performance in recent times compared to Juventus. And I really believe that if Juventus does not improve their performance very quickly, they are going to have a big problem. At a time we thought Juventus is going to give a good competition for the title. But now it seems like they will have a hard time staying in the top four positions. Because remember Roma is also improving quickly.

Inter actually dominated the match. People actually expected that outcome I guess. The score is 2-0  in favour of Inter.  and we have to realize that Inter does not have any other competition to worry about right now.  so they are obviously going to try to put the best performance in the Serie A.  and they are actually doing it as well.  this further solidifies the first position of Inter on the table and this loss also means that Empoli  is now in the relegation zone. But the good thing is they are absolutely equal in terms of points and also goal difference with the team that is ahead of them. So it is very much possible for them to get out of the relegation zone quickly. And about Inter, I think everybody knows that they are most likely going to win the title.

Exactly, Bologna are the surprise of this year in Serie A, they have played an extraordinary championship so far and it would be a real shame if they do not qualify for the next Champions League, and all thanks to their coach Thiago Motta who has been able to bring out the best in every player. I don't want to be hasty but I think Motta deserves a more important bench at Bologna, perhaps to aspire to win some trophies.

I didn't expect Bologna to be as consistent as they are now, where in a little while they will overtake Juventus position in third place, Thiago Motta fleet is now a little comfortable with a 5 point difference with Roma. Now I think Bologna chances of securing a ticket to the Champions League are quite big, they even have the chance to finish in 3rd place because Juventus is being inconsistent.

The remaining 8 matches ahead, of course Bologna will try to secure full points in each match, even though there are tough matches waiting for them ahead. Roma, Napoli and Juventus are the teams that can make Bologna lose points. If Bologna manages to get through this tough match without losing, they have a big chance of finishing in 3rd place in the standings.

The pressure towards the end of the season will increase, where Roma, who are currently developing for the better, will continue to try to break into the top four of the standings. De Rossi fleet will continue to compete with Bologna to appear in the Champions League next season. I think with yesterday draw against Lecce, Roma chances of overtaking Bologna have become increasingly now difficult.

I don't think Juventus needs a new coach but this squad needs better players. You know that in the transfer market at the beginning of the season and in the middle of the season, we know that this club does not transfer many players. They only take advantage of existing or remaining players. So Allegri often has difficulty rotating players. Like the midfielder position which even experienced a crisis due to a storm of injuries at the start of the season which made it difficult for Allegri to find a replacement player. In fact, I feel that Juventus' current ranking is already quite good. because compared to other teams, Juventus actually got the least amount of new energy or new players this season. So actually we can't expect too much from this club this season with the squad they currently have. Because even one of their mainstay players couldn't play due to a suspension or ban from playing related to a doping case.
