Serie A Champions Juventus will look to start the campaign as they mean to go on when they host Parma on Saturday evening, as Bet365 launch their new high quality Serie A live streaming service for Italian football fans.
Under Antonio Conte, Juventus went the entire league season unbeaten on their way to the title and they will be looking to replicate this form once again.
They will have to do so without Conte though. He has been banned for ten months after being involved in match-fixing and this has definitely affected Juventus’ pre-season, making this weekend’s match even more important.
The home side need to not only show everyone that they are still the team to beat, but banish any worries that they have been distracted by the negative headlines surrounding Conte and his ban.

Victory in the Super Cup earlier this month was achieved over Napoli though and once again, Juventus will hope that on-field matters take care of themselves. Boosted by several new arrivals – including Mauricio Isla – they will look to get off to a flying start.
As for Parma, they will hope to continue where they left off at the end of the last Serie A season. Finishing the campaign in style, they won seven games in succession to end up finishing up in 8th position.
They will certainly want to get off to a better start than they did last season. The 2011/2012 campaign began with three defeats in their first four games, including a 4-1 hammering at Saturday’s opponents Juventus on the opening day.
Parma know that if they play to their potential, they can be in contention for European positions and the chances of this happening will be given a massive boost if they can get something from this weekend’s tough start.
They have many new faces in and around their squad, so they are difficult team to predict this season. Juventus are definitely favourites to beat them on Saturday evening though.
