As Juventus set to face Spezia on Wednesday night, the club official site posted some of the stats and curious facts ahead of the game.
Despite his impressive streak of goals, Alvaro Morata is expected to be left out of the starting lineup after suffering a blow against Milan. However, if the Spaniard manages to make an appearance today, it would be his 100th in Serie A.
On the other hand, Paulo Dybala should retain his starting role and lead the attack against the Little Eagles. The source highlights the Argentine’s importance to the team in his last five appearances, where he has scored two goals and provided three assists for his teammates.
Juan Cuadrado is another vital member of the squad who could be pulled out of the starting lineup today. However, a win for the old lady would actually be the Colombian’s 150th Serie A victory. La Vespa had previously played for Udinese, Lecce and Fiorentina before joining Juventus in 2015.
In an encouraging statistic for Max Allegri’s men, the Bianconeri have won their last 10 Serie A matches against the Ligurian opposition. Besides Spezia, the list includes Genoa and Sampdoria.
Interestingly, Juventus and Spezia are the two Serie A clubs that have scored the most goals in the opening 15 minutes so far this season. Both camps have found the other side of the coin on three occasions in the first quarter of an hour. However, the Bianconeri have yet to score a single second-half goal this season.
