For the fifth consecutive Serie A match, Juventus secured a victory, defeating Hellas Verona 2-0 at the Allianz Stadium. The win keeps them in fourth place, just six points behind the league leaders. Despite recent disappointments in cup competitions, Juventus displayed dominance, registering 27 shots and maintaining over 75% possession.
The deadlock was broken in the 71st minute by Khephren Thuram, who has now contributed seven goal involvements (three goals, four assists) this season—his personal best in Europe’s top five leagues. Teun Koopmeiners sealed the victory with a late goal in stoppage time. Verona goalkeeper Lorenzo Montipo made several crucial saves, but Juventus’ relentless attacking eventually paid off.
VAR played a role in Juventus' favor, ruling out a first-half stoppage-time goal from Verona’s Tomas Suslov. Juventus attempted 78 passes in the final third during the first half, nearly matching Verona’s total pass attempts (84). With upcoming matches against Atalanta and Fiorentina, Juventus will look to maintain their league momentum. Despite struggles in knockout tournaments, their recent league form provides hope for a strong finish to the season.
