Juventus to Win
Juventus have found some form of late and having won three and drawn one of their last four matches in all competitions, the Old Lady can travel to Spezia on Sunday with confidence. Relegation candidates Spezia have lost four of their last five games in league and cup, and they failed to score in three of their last four assignments. Juve have an extra dash of class in their ranks and our first Spezia vs Juventus prediction backs them to prevail.
Under 2.5 Goals
In typical Juventus style under Max Allegri, the team’s recent spike in results has been built on defensive resilience rather than explosive attacking football, and three of Juve’s last four games have featured under 2.5 goals as a consequence. The Turin giants should be able to keep a toothless Spezia outfit at arm’s length for most of Sunday’s encounter, so bettors should expect another game decided by slender margins. With that considered, a stake on under 2.5 goals is advised again at the prices on offer.

Spezia vs Juventus Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates, Spezia vs Juventus lineups and team news for Sunday’s clash below.
Spezia
Spezia's ranks look a little depleted this week, with M'Bala Nzola, Joao Moutinho, Jacopo Sala, Viktor Kovalenko, Szymon Zurkowski and Jeroen Zoet all currently out. Salvatore Esposito is also missing through suspension. Spezia drew 2-2 with Empoli last time out, though they are still in third last spot in Serie A.
Predicted Lineup for Spezia: Dragowski – Wizniewski, Amian, Nikolaou – Gyasi, Bourabia, Ekdal, Agudelo, Reca – Verde, Shomurodov
Juventus
Juventus will be without injured pair Fabio Miretti and Arkadiusz Milik on Sunday, while defender Bremer is serving a ban and cannot feature. Juventus played with a back four against Nantes in midweek, though they could revert back to their favoured three-man defensive when they return to domestic action.
Predicted Lineup for Juventus: Szczesny – Danilo, Rugani, Sandro – De Sciglio, Locatelli, Rabiot, Kostic – Di Maria, Chiesa, Vlahovic
Player to Watch – Adrien Rabiot
For all the criticism he seems to draw, Adrien Rabiot has been one of Juventus’s most-consistent performers in Serie A this season and the 27-year-old is certain to be one of this team’s pillars of reliability again on Sunday. Rabiot has also chipped in with six goal contributions for Juventus in the league since August.
