Juventus will be hosting struggling Benevento in the Serie A this Sunday, hoping to use the chance to close in on league leaders Internazionale who will not be in action after their match against Sassuolo was called off. Placed third with 55 points, Juventus are 10 points below Inter but with a game in hand and will be hoping to pile pressure on 16th placed Benevento, who have so far managed 26 points. Juventus are going to this game on four straight wins and unbeaten in their last six matches. They have the best defence in the league, having conceded 22 goals and in their four straight wins, the team has scored three goals in each. In Serie A action, Juventus have seven wins in the last 10 matches heading to this game, while they’ve failed to score in just three of their last 15 league matches. Juventus have seven straight home wins in the league, and scored two or more goals in each of these. In their last five home league matches, they’ve kept four clean sheets and out of their 13 home matches in Serie A this season, they’ve managed 10 wins and just one loss.

Benevento on the other hand are on a free fall as far as their league campaign is concerned. They’ve gone winless in their last 11 Serie A matches, and where they should have earned 33 points, they just have five points to show from the last 11 league games. This bad run has left them just four points above the relegation zone and they aren’t favored by the fact they are the second poorest scorers in the league. Benevento have scored 27 goals in their 27 Serie A games so far. Ahead of this game, Benevento have three losses in their last five matches and have failed to score in three of the five, while they’ve conceded two or more goals in three of the five. Away from home, in Serie A, Benevento are winless in their last five matches, conceding 12 goals and scoring just three.
