Tudor concedes Juventus have fallen short of their potential this season

Juventus travel to the Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo to face lowly Venezia in their final league game, knowing a victory will be enough to seal a spot in Europe's elite competition.

Tudor's team find themselves a point ahead of fifth-placed Roma, while Lazio, who are one place further back, could also clinch a top four place should results go their way.

Juventus' upturn in form has coincided with Tudor's arrival at the club since he took over from Thiago Motta back in March, who had endured consecutive humbling defeats before being sacked.

The Bianconeri have a favourable record against Venezia, winning 16 of their last 20 Serie A meetings (D3 L1), though Juventus have struggled away under Tudor's tenure.

Indeed, Juventus have failed to win any of their four away league matches under Tudor (D3 L1). The last Bianconeri boss to lose their first five Serie A away games was Cestmir Vycpalek, who managed five draws back in 1971.

"Numbers and calculations are not part of my way of thinking. Juve's potential is bigger than what we can see now," Tudor told reporters.

"For me this team has done almost nothing wrong. The team gives me confidence for tomorrow. The team wants to take what is theirs. The team is there."

Despite their poor away from, the Opta supercomputer hands Juventus a 70.8% chance of finishing in the top four, compared to Roma (24.5%) and Lazio (4.8%).

But while the fixture holds huge significance for Juventus, it also comes with pressure for Venezia, who are fighting to stay in the division.

They are 19th in the table, two points adrift of Empoli and Lecce, who face Hellas Verona and Lazio respectively on the final day.

But they come into the game in good form, having won two of their last three home league matches (L1), including their most recent against seventh-placed Fiorentina.

"We'll need both (head and heart). It's an important match, and we have to concentrate on things on the pitch," added Tudor.

"I'm happy with the work I've done, and I want to take this last step to complete everything."

Tudor said midfielder Teun Koopmeiners, who suffered an Achilles tendon injury last month, had trained with the team, but did not say if he was ready to play.

"Renato (Veiga) and (Weston) McKennie had problems, but they trained with us today," the coach added.

Tudor, who spent almost a decade at Juventus as a player, said he wanted to help his players do better, with the club set to compete at the Club World Cup next month.
