Frosinone vs Juventus prediction: ITALY: Serie A betting tips on match 2023-12-22 11:30.
A late goal against Lecce last weekend condemned Frosinone to their third consecutive Serie A (SA) game without a win as Eusebio Di Francesco’s men are slowly but surely falling away from their unexpected run for a top-half finish. But having settled into a comfortable mid-table position following promotion from Serie B, there is no need to panic despite picking up only one win across their last five top-flight outings (D1, L3), especially after an encouraging but surprising 4-0 triumph away at Napoli in midweek cup action.
Further optimism comes from the fact that Frosinone are unbeaten in seven consecutive home matches (W5, D2), with four of their five wins across this run producing the same 2-1 score. It may be hard to repeat here against second-placed Juventus as the Ciociari have lost each of their four SA matches against teams starting this round inside the top five, whilst also failing to score in three consecutive H2Hs.
Juventus not only failed to grab an opportunity to go top of the SA table when they were held to a 1-1 draw at Genoa last week, but they had to watch Inter increase their lead to four points, despite the Bianconeri stretching their current unbeaten run to an impressive 11 matches (W8, D3). More goals or an impenetrable defence will be needed as Juventus scored multiple goals just three times during that run.
The mood in at least part of the Juventus camp remains upbeat, with Federico Chiesa and Daniele Rugani celebrating successful marriage proposals last weekend, but head coach Max Allegri was fined €10,000 during the week for confronting match officials in their dressing room following the draw with Genoa. The visitors will try to get back to winning ways at Stadio Benito Stirpe, but it might not be so straightforward as they have won only half of their last ten away league matches against newly-promoted teams (W5, D4, L1).
Players to watch: Matías Soulé, on loan at Frosinone from Juventus, has scored six goals from 14 appearances and will be eager to show his best against his former teammates. Meanwhile, Chiesa’s converted penalty against Genoa was his fifth SA goal of this term, with four arriving on the road.
Hot stat: A joint-league high 12 of Frosinone’s first 16 matches saw both teams score on the day.
