Salernitana vs Juventus Prediction
Salernitana are currently 20th in the league table, three points behind 17th-placed Spezia, who have played a game less. They have lost three of their last four league games, and now need to stitch together a positive run of results if they are to stay in the Italian top-flight next season.
Juventus, on the other hand, are struggling. They are 8th in the league, and have lost three of their last five league games. The size of the project is becoming clearer every day, and manager Massimiliano Allegri has his work cut out.
Juventus, on paper, have more than enough here.
Prediction: Salernitana 0-2 Juventus
