Frosinone Calcio vs Juventus

Serie A's 2026-27 season opens on August 23 with a trip to Frosinone for Juventus, and there's real intrigue at both ends. Frosinone return to the top flight at the first attempt, finishing Serie B runners-up with 81 points, one behind champions Venezia. Juventus, meanwhile, are aiming for a bounce-back campaign after missing Champions League qualification last season and settling for the Europa League instead. There's fresh energy at the promoted side too, with US investment group Clara Vista recently completing an 80% takeover worth around €41.5 million. Juventus arrive on the back of a busy preseason under Luciano Spalletti, with wins over Standard Liège and Nice plus a tour stop against Chelsea, Inter, and Palermo. New arrivals Randal Kolo Muani and Kerim Alajbegovic add fresh attacking options. History heavily favors the visitors: Juventus have won eight of nine meetings with Frosinone, including the last five in a row, the only blemish a 1-1 draw in 2015. Our prediction: 1-2
