Juventus: Crucial Victory Against Udinese, Now Decisive Challenge in Venice for Champions League

The obstacle Udinese it was far from obvious to overcome for a Juve who showed up at the Stadium on Sunday without Kalulu and Thuram. Nico Gonzalez (pictured) and Vlahovic signed a vital victory to keep Roma at bay: now three points on Sunday will be enough to Venice to secure a pass Champions which would be worth a lot for the accounts, for the prestige and also for the brand of the Lady. Of course the lagoon team are still desperately fighting for salvation and will make life difficult for Locatelli and his teammates. The Venetians, in the last three precedents of Serie A, have snatched a draw against the Bianconeri on two occasions.

However, Tudor will be able to show up at Penzo with a wider range of tactical solutions than those of a few days ago. In defense, Savona will return from suspension; it is not excluded that Koopmeiners will recover, in a midfield that will see the return of Thuram. Conceiçao passed the test as an attacking midfielder alongside Yildiz, while Nico himself, deployed very wide, was able to strike effectively, confirming his excellent moment.

In attack, the return to goal Vlahovic, the return to scoring in the league after almost three months can only be welcomed in view of a decisive challenge. It is the tenth in the tournament for the Serbian, who however seems destined to say goodbye in the summer. Lookman and Osimhen are the top market objectives for the department, but the feasibility of at least one of these operations is linked solely to qualification for the Grande Coppa.

But the trip to the lagoon is worth double also for Tudor. If he were to hit the target, he would be a forceful candidate for confirmation. With him, Juve would benefit from a factor too often denied in the name of an eternal revolution: continuity.
