Ahead of the Fiorentina-Juventus match. The team from Turin has consistently implemented its reconstruction policy after a poor previous season. And Wojciech Szczęsny contributed to this. He was unbeaten in Serie A for 45 minutes.

Juventus Turin, which turned 126 years old last Wednesday – a club founded on November 1 1897 – experienced big problems last season. Due to the penalty deduction of 10 points, it was moved in the Serie A table from 2nd to 7th place, and then UEFA decided to exclude the “Old Lady” from the European cup.

Is everything going well?

However, in this unpleasant situation for the fans, there are many voices saying that… it is a good thing and that coach Massimiliano Allegri will dedicate this season to rebuilding the team. However, the start of the 23/24 season was not very successful for the team from the Piedmont capital, and the 2-4 defeat against Sassuolo was painful. However, since that match, Juve started to perform better. In the next 5 games they scored 13 points and did not lose a single goal. Wojciech Szczęsny was unbeaten for 450 minutes. The Polish goalkeeper kept 5 clean sheets in a row, and in total he scored 6 of them in 8 appearances this season, as he missed 2 matches at the start of the season due to injury.

Of course, the belief that this season will be good for Szczęsny’s team, as well as for Arkadiusz Milik, was strengthened by a certain victory in the derby against Torino, and then by an away victory over Milan. Last round, the “Old Lady” faced Hellas Verona and Allegri’s players banged their heads against the wall. However, in the 8th additional minute, Andrea Cambiaso scored 3 points. It was a third win in a row, but coach Allegri was far from optimistic. – It took us 98 minutes to win this match. We deserved to win and it was another such game this season. We work consistently and that is the most important thing, said the “Old Lady” trustee. – The season is not over, quite the opposite. It’s just getting started. We cannot overstate the praise – emphasized team managers Szczęsny and Milik.

The goal is clear

Allegri has admitted since the start of the season that Juventus’ goal this season is to finish in the top four, which means returning to the Champions League. Let’s remember that last season the team earned more in the Champions League – taking 3rd place in the group stage – than later, after the “relegation” to the Europa League, despite reaching the semifinals in this competition. Interestingly, in the league last season, Juve ultimately finished 7th. In the end, they won the right to play in another competition, namely LKE, but due to UEFA’s decision they were replaced by Fiorentina. And the Bianconeri will play against the “Viola” on Sunday.

The team from Florence started the Serie A season very well, but something went wrong at the least expected moment. Recently, the finalists in the previous edition of LKE lost at home to Empoli, who have generally performed very poorly this season. Then he lost to Lazio, who played better and better after a poor start. This is the first time since February this year that the “Viola” have suffered two defeats in a row. The last time this team lost three matches in a row was in the spring of 2022. Interestingly, Vincenzo Italiano, Fiorentina coach, led the team against Juventus 8 times. He only won once and suffered 6 defeats.
