Prediction: 1-0
Juventus
Monday’s football game between Bologna and Juventus will bring down the curtain on the Serie A round 37. The Rossoblu have already booked their spot in the Champions League, but they are now on a quest to secure a top-three finish. Barring any fresh injury worries, Thiago Motta is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated Napoli at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona. The former Juve midfielder should stick to the 4-3-3 formation with key attacker Joshua Zirkzee as a lone centre-forward.
The Bianconeri, on the other hand, produced an under-par performance in a 1-1 draw with rock-bottom Salernitana. As Juventus head into the match following the midweek Coppa Italia clash with Atalanta, home win should definitely be considered. All Danilo, Alex Sandro, and Mattia De Sciglio are sidelined with injuries for the visiting side, while pacey wing-back Samuel Iling Junior is pushing for a recall to the starting XI.

Weston McKennie has two caps for the USA U20 team as well. His main position is central midfield, but he used as both defensive and attacking midfielder as well. The USA international was born in Fort Lewis, Washington on August 28, 1998. His preferred foot is right.
