Alarming Juventus statistics show failure to hold a lead | OneFootball

Juventus have now dropped 14 points from leading situations in Serie A this season and are 15 points worse off than at this stage last term under Max Allegri.

The pressure is beginning to grow heavy on coach Thiago Motta following the 1-1 stalemate in Bergamo against Atalanta this evening.

That was remarkably the 13th draw in 20 Serie A rounds this term, so while they are still unbeaten in the division, they have also managed only seven victories – less than half those of leaders Napoli.

Opta note this means Juve are 15 points worse off than at this stage last season when Allegri was at the helm, the worst difference among all the clubs compared to 2023-24.

There is also an alarming tendency that was confirmed yet again in Bergamo, as the Bianconeri fumbled a lead to draw 1-1.

They have now dropped an extraordinary 14 points from leading situations.

If the Old Lady had managed to hold on to all those leads, they’d be on 47 points, joint top of the table with Napoli and only one shy of their tally at this stage last season.
