I think it is still too early to say that Juventus will have a hard time winning trophies this season, let alone qualifying for the Champions League next season because the chances are still wide open. Although so far Juventus is in fifth place and 13 points behind Napoli in first place, there are still many matches and anything can happen in the future. Therefore, what Juventus needs to do is to continue to collect as many points as possible while hoping that other teams lose a lot of points so that Juventus has a chance to win the title this season and qualify for the Champions League next season.
Well if a team is going to have a good season, I think you will get to know from the first half of the season. Juventus already lost the super cup, they are currently struggling in both Italian league and the Champions League, they can only try to clinch on the coppa italia, they will be facing empoli in the quarter finals of the Coppa Italia so maybe, just maybe they can get something but I still doubt. The likes of AC Milan,Atalanta, inter Milan are still all in the coppa italia, so it going to be a tough one for Juventus.
Yeah, i think there is still a champions league hope for juventus, but they need to start recording winnings because there are almost 7 teams fighting for that top 4 spot. The top 4 fight is going to be a very tough one, the Italian league haven’t been this competitive for years. Let see maybe juventus can turn their season around.
