Juve have struggled and are currently fourth in Serie A, level on points with Napoli above them and AC Milan below them.
Seven points separate second-placed Atalanta from Lazio in seventh with five rounds remaining in Serie A, leaving five teams fighting for three Champions League spots.

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
