Short Preview: Juventus vs Pescara

Serie A league leaders Juventus are certain to bounce back from their recent defeat against Bayern Munich with a win over bottom-placed Pescara on Saturday. It will be the perfect oppurtunity to recover from their European slump.

Juventus are currently nine points ahead of second placed Napoli, with only eight more rounds remaining before this season’s Calcio concludes, Juventus hold a firm place at the top of the table. Their league form has been more than impressive off late, with four wins in last five games including a 2-1 win over Inter.

Meanwhile, Pescara’s nightmarish campaign continues as they have picked up just a single draw from their previous 11 matches and sit rock bottom at the league standings.
