Juventus in the last few matches has been very bad, if they don't improve immediately, it's not impossible that they will leave the UCl league zone. Bologna and As Roma pose a real threat to Juventus if they don't improve immediately, especially since in the remaining matches Juventus will still face strong teams. Because Roma, after the change of coach, continued to achieve positive results, even losing only once against Inter Milan, De Rossi's presence made As Roma come back to life.
Juventus will visit Lazio's headquarters. Both teams are in bad condition after achieving bad results in the last few matches. This is an important match for Juventus to steal three points so this victory makes them even more confident. If Juventus loses then its position will be threatened by Bologna, because in the same week Bologna will face a bottom team of course the chance of getting three points is very big.
I wonder if it is more like "give up" feeling. They were going for the title and they did their best, failed of course but they tried their best. After they realized that they can't get it and Inter did so well, they might have given up on the league.
Yes, they could have at least kept the second place, but they didn't see the point, not like there is a big money difference and team is responsible for it not the players. So, they just maybe gave up? That would be very weird but not unheard of, some teams just crumble after their goal is taken from them. I think Juventus is the type of team that goes for the title, and when they fail to do that then rest doesn't really matter to them anymore, they feel like that is all that matters.
