Salernitana Form & Balance Check
Also in Italy it shows that promoted teams never have it easy in the top flight. After 14 games, US Salernitana are at the bottom of the table and have only picked up 8 of a possible 42 points. However, as Salernitana are not the only team currently struggling, they are only 3 points away from a non-relegation place. After a second season in Venice, Salernitana lost three games in a row, but managed to earn a point with a 1-1 draw at Cagliari on Friday.
No chance in Serie A?
Even though Cagliari Calcio currently only have 8 points and are not promoted, Salernitana show how big the difference is between them and the really big names of Italian football. Salernitana have already played against AS Roma, Atalanta, Napoli and Lazio. Against none of the big teams could the promoted team even take anything. The only thing in Salernitana’s favour against Juven is that the Old Lady is not having the best season.

Juventus form & balance check
Juventus Turin revealed once again on Saturday night at home to Atalanta Bergamo that there is not much of the success-obsessed Juve DNA left at the club. Max Allegri, who took over the old lady as head coach for a second time in the summer, has not changed that so far. Juventus lost 0:1 against Atalanta Bergamo and thus the third game of the last 5 in Serie A. Juve has to forget about the championship. Now it’s all about making it into the Champions League for the Old Lady. Because at the moment they are only in 7th place.
Performers drop out
As with his first spell as head coach at Juventus Turin, coach Max Allegri is accused of failing to see a system in the game. Too much depends on individual performances of individual players. One of them is Chiesa. He is livening up the Old Lady’s backline and providing a scoring threat. But Federico Chiesa will be out for several weeks due to a thigh injury. The Italian international will probably not be able to play again until next year. The same applies to Weston McKennie.
Juventus facts & analysis
– Juve currently only in 7th place
– Already 7 points behind 4th place
– Lost 3 of last 5 matches
Predicted line-up – last update on 29 November 2021
US Salernitana come out in a 4-3-1-2 system, which coach Stefano Colantuano favours in the vast majority of matches. The promoted side pursues a game focused through the centre and aims to be goal-threatening through quick passing.
Coach Max Allegri often lets his Juventus play in different formations. In the last match against Atalanta, the Old Lady played in a 4-4-2 system. It is quite possible that Juve will present this system in this match as well. Should this not be the case, Juve can be expected to play in a 4-3-3 system.
