Juventus Turin aims to kick off the 2024 calendar year with a victory as they go up against Salernitana in the last 16 of the Coppa Italia on Thursday evening.
The calendar year of 2023 was marked by the hosts being penalized with point deductions for violating transfer rules, leading to a ban on their participation in European football. Despite this setback, Massimiliano Allegri’s team is thriving, currently ranking second in the Serie A standings with only one loss this season. Ending 2023 on a high note, the Old Lady secured an impressive victory against AS Roma, trailing the leading team, Inter, by just two points. They will be aiming for another win of this sort on Thursday.
Salernitana barely managed to escape from being relegated from Italy’s premier league in 2023, but their performance this season is far from promising. Currently, the Granata are languishing at the bottom of the league table, accumulating only 12 points from 18 matches and suffering ten losses. However, a glimmer of hope is seen in Filippo Inzaghi’s team as they have not faced defeat in their last two matches, securing a 2:2 draw with AC Milan and a 1:0 victory over Verona.
Juventus vs Salernitana Betting Tips: Home team to win
This season, every opponent in Italy has found the Allianz Stadium a challenging venue. Even Inter Milan, who are leading the league, couldn’t defeat Juventus on this ground. The Old Lady managed to keep a clean sheet in six out of their last seven home games, claiming as many victories.
Cagliari and Frosinone are the only teams with a poorer away record than Salernitana in this season’s Italian top flight. Salernitana, as visitors, have only secured a single road win in the league this season, and it is doubtful they’ll clinch their second against Juventus.

Juventus team news
Despite receiving his fifth yellow card of the Serie A campaign against Roma last weekend, Manuel Locatelli will not face a suspension in the Coppa Italia.
After serving his one-match ban last time out, Andrea Cambiaso is now available for selection by Juventus head coach Massimiliano Allegri. However, Nicolò Fagioli and Paul Pogba remain suspended.
Regarding injuries, the home team will not have Mattia De Sciglio and Moise Kean available, as they are currently recovering from cruciate ligament and tibia injuries respectively.
The USMNT star, Weston McKennie, is also uncertain to play after being substituted due to injury in stoppage time against Roma.

Salernitana team news
Lorenzo Pirola, the centre-back for Salernitana, will be unavailable due to an injury he sustained just five minutes into their victory over Hellas Verona.
The 21-year-old’s nonappearance may lead to Norbert Gyömbér starting in central defence with Federico Fazio. However, it is doubtful that head coach Filippo Inzaghi will make any additional changes to his team.
The injury list for the visitors also includes Goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa, who has been absent from the last seven games due to a muscle injury.
