17 points is a decent return from 8 Serie A games here at Allianz Stadium for Juventus. The data says 5 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Allianz Stadium.

A nice win for Juventus last time playing, versus Napoli. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-0 with Cristiano Ronaldo and Morata scoring for the victors. Heartbreak before that as Juventus lost 0-2 at Inter's place.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as SPAL are coming to town in three days.

Bologna form and stats

There's been little loot from Bologna's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 9 away games in the Serie A. Bologna only have 1 win to counter their 5 defeats and 3 draws.

Riccardo Orsolini scored in Bologna's previous match, the home game against Hellas Verona that ended 1-0. Prior to that match, the Bologna manager S. Mihajlović faced defeat when travelling to Genoa and losing 0-2.

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Bologna played away with similar odds. This revealed seven games. The visitors overcame the odds to win two times, zero were draws and the home team won as expected five times.

The visitors have scored 7 goals from 9 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Bologna's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 14 goals from these trips.
