They have not won a league game at home for more than five months. They have 41 points. He came in and did extraordinary things." Di Maria is among them," Allegri said. They are 10 points off fourth spot. [Moise Kean](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/248633/Moise-Kean) and winger Angel Di Maria helped [Juventus](/soccer/team?id=111) to a 2-0 victory at [Spezia](/soccer/team?id=4056) in Serie A on Sunday, extending their winning streak in the league to three games.
After a pair of sound results, Juventus stumbled against Nantes and will try to avoid making that a distraction versus Spezia.
Kevin Agudelo can also play up front, and he’s at his best when he’s given the freedom to pick his spots, but they don’t have many options in the midfield. The marksman will make his return to the squad list in this one, but he’s a long shot to be in the XI. They have always played Juventus tight in recent encounters, and this could easily be a trap game since it’s sandwiched between pivotal clashes that may distract the Bianconeri. He was shining in Serie B but has little top-league experience and has been in Italy for just a few months. In addition, Simone Bastoni, who’s a big weapon with his dynamism, shooting, and crossing out of the midfield, is shelved with a meniscus tear, and his substitute Szymon Zurkowski got hurt right after joining. Furthermore, using the Italian starlet as a wing-back is unnecessarily burdensome for him and the rest of the formation, which has to adjust to his defensive shortcomings. He probably gets penalized again for his quiet demeanor, as teams prefer a rah-rah guy that can galvanize the squad in trying times when they start slipping, while he’s more of a pure tactician. They surely have been poor lately, but that was mostly the product of several absences. Filip Kostic has to rest sometimes, and Juventus pay the price for not addressing the wing-back positions in January, but Samuel Iling-Junior has proven perfectly capable any time he has been called upon. It’s particularly damning in a two-legged clash, which could have been settled in the first one by having the right amount of energy and determination for a good hour. Spezia pulled the plug on Luca Gotti at the first sign of troubles, as Hellas Verona going on a run created panic down low in sides that previously thought to be in a comfortable position. The effectiveness of the wingers and the forwards comes and goes depending on the overall pace and their form.
Juventus must cope without Federico Chiesa, but Massimiliano Allegri will start Moise Kean and Dusan Vlahovic against Spezia.
Mbala Nzola is back on the squad list but is not expected to start. Angel Di Maria should rest ahead of next week’s Europa League clash with Nantes, so Kean and Vlahovic will start in attack. Salvatore Esposito is suspended.

They are very much in a relegation battle and enter tonight’s game with one win in their last five — the kind of form that you would hope is going to be extended once the final whistle sounds in a few hours. How Juve will bounce back is anybody’s guess seeing as Thursday night’s 1-1 draw with Nantes is the latest hit in what has proven to be a 2023 that just one hit after another with a completely unknown ending in sight. They’ve been tricky, they’ve been frustrating, and they’ve been something that has seen Juve nearly lose as many as they’ve won and leave a lot to be desired in the process. So maybe this is the game where Juventus get back on the horse and takes care of business away from home. in the United Kingdom, 12 p.m.

Here are our player ratings for Juventus who earned their third Serie A win on the bounce, this time at the expense of Spezia.
He needed less than 45 minutes on the pitch to further consolidate his role as the main talisman at Juventus. Left his place for Fagioli at the interval. A mixed bag from the Argentine midfielder. He looked significantly more composed in the period half, but it remains a mediocre performance overall. Easily the best from a vulnerable back-three. The Euro 2020 winner had a horrendous first half.
