"After being recently eliminated from both the Coppa Italia and the Champions League, Juventus put their poor stretch behind them in convincing fashion on Saturday. However, they did make a slow start and were fortunate not to go behind, as goalkeeper Mattia Perin was forced to claw away a header from Rafiu Durosinmi early on."
"There may have been recent turmoil at Juve, but this was a fine display, as they generated an expected goals (xG) total of 2.67 compared to just 0.45 from their opponents, with 24 shots in total. They also continued their unbeaten record against Pisa in the top-flight, with 12 victories from their 16 matches."
"The home side eventually found their groove, but they failed to find the opener in the first half as Khephren Thuram and Jonathan David both missed the target. But they would find the breakthrough in the 54th minute as Kenan Yildiz clipped a cross for Andrea Cambiaso at the back post, and he made no mistake with a header."
Juventus secured a commanding 4-0 victory over Pisa at Allianz Stadium, breaking a four-match winless run in Serie A following recent eliminations from the Coppa Italia and Champions League. Despite a slow start where goalkeeper Mattia Perin made an early save, Juventus dominated the match with 24 shots and an expected goals total of 2.67. Andrea Cambiaso opened the scoring in the 54th minute with a header, followed by Khephren Thuram's rebound finish. Kenan Yildiz added a third goal with a brilliant finish, and Jeremie Boga sealed the victory in stoppage time. The performance demonstrated Juventus's superiority and extended their unbeaten record against Pisa to 12 victories in 16 top-flight encounters.
