Juventus aims for fourth place in Serie A
Bologna looks to recover from Europa League disappointment
Juventus can break away in fourth place, but Jeremie Boga and Jonathan David start upfront against Santiago Castro’s Bologna eager to put the Europa League behind them.
There will be a minute’s silence before kick-off and Juve wear black armbands to remember goalkeeper Alex Manninger, who died this week in a car accident at age 48.
He wore their jersey from 2008 to 2012, winning the Scudetto, but was also on the Bologna books from 2003 to 2005, even if he only made four appearances.
The Bianconeri are on sparkling form and after winning four of their last five are hoping to lock down fourth place, especially after Como and Roma dropped points behind them.
However, Kenan Yildiz has been struggling for a while with a fitness issue and is therefore allowed some respite on the bench, so Boga and Francisco Conceicao support centre-forward David.
