Motta hopes more injured players will return before the Fiorentina game | OneFootball

Juventus will face Fiorentina in their final game of 2024, a fixture that promises to be a tough test for their impressive unbeaten run. The Bianconeri have managed to avoid defeat in all their domestic matches this season, earning admiration from fans and critics alike. As the year comes to a close, fans remain hopeful that this streak will continue, even against a Fiorentina side eager to break their resilience.

Juventus’s unbeaten run has seen them successfully fend off challenges from Serie A heavyweights like AC Milan, Lazio, Napoli, and Inter Milan. While it’s undoubtedly impressive that these top clubs have failed to topple the Turin giants, there has been a lingering frustration among supporters regarding the team’s inability to consistently secure victories against smaller sides. Despite these occasional shortcomings, Juventus has proven remarkably difficult to beat, a trait that will serve them well against a strong Fiorentina side.

Fiorentina will be eager to test Thiago Motta’s men, who are battling injury troubles as they prepare for this crucial clash. Injuries have plagued Juventus throughout the campaign, leaving Motta to rely heavily on the depth of his squad. Speaking after their recent victory over Monza, Motta remained optimistic about the potential return of some sidelined players. He said, as quoted by Tuttojuve, “The injured? Let’s see who we can recover for the next match, we have a week. We hope to recover some of them, otherwise, we will continue to fight with our players.”

One player causing concern is Teun Koopmeiners, who is awaiting test results following his injury in the Monza game. His potential absence, along with other fitness concerns, could leave Juventus vulnerable against Fiorentina. However, if the team manages to recover a few key players in time, they will have a strong chance to cap off the year with another positive result and keep their unbeaten record intact.

Juventus’s resilience will once again be put to the test, and this final game of 2024 will provide a perfect opportunity to demonstrate their credentials as serious contenders.
