Juventus sink into their worst scoring drought since 1991
Juventus are preparing for a tough match against Udinese on Wednesday at the Juventus Arena, as part of the ninth round of the Italian League. Both teams enter the match with an equal number of points, each having 12 points after playing 8 games, with 3 wins, 3 draws, and 2 losses. Juventus sits in eighth place, ahead of Udinese in ninth on goal difference. The Bianconeri have scored 9 goals and conceded 8, while Udinese has scored 10 and conceded 12. From a technical standpoint, Luciano Spalletti's name has emerged as the leading candidate to take over the team following the dismissal of manager Igor Tudor, as Juventus seeks to regain its footing after a period of disappointing results. The team has failed to secure a victory in its last eight matches across all competitions, managing only five draws and three losses, and has gone four consecutive games without scoring – its worst scoring streak since March 1991. The recent defeat against Lazio increased the pressure within the club, leading to the dismissal of the manager. Juventus are expected to play tonight's match under the interim leadership of coach Paolo Brambilla, amidst a climate of anxiety and technical instability.
