Defending Italian champions Juventus (1-2-1, 4 points) is evidently not having one of their greatest starts to a season and they will try to rise from their struggles as they face bottom-dwelling club Frosinone (0-4-0, 0 points), who themselves have lost all their games in the 2015-2016 Serie A so far, in Turin on Wednesday.

Juve, boosted by their 2-1 Champions League win over English powerhouse Manchester City, finally won their first game of the new season against Genoa, 2-0, at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris last Sunday.

Star midfielder Paul Pogba led the Zebras attack as he was responsible for both of his team's goals. His first attack bounced off Genoa goalie Eugenio Lamanna then through the net for an own goal at the 37th-minute then he followed it with a penalty kick at the hour mark for the final score, as per SkySports.

Meanwhile, newly-promoted Frosinone has yet to win or draw any of their games in the season so far and is in danger of being relegated back to the Serie B if they don't come out to form soonest.

Their last match was a disappointing 0-1 loss to fellow newly-promoted club Bologna at the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara also last Sunday, via ESPN.

French midfielder Anthony Mounier scored for I Rossoblu at the 27th, but Roberto Stellone's wards were unable to recover until full time.

With both clubs desperate to improve their situations, expect a tight battle where Juve will prevail due to their star power.

Prediction: A close 1-0 win for Juventus.

Juventus starting lineup (4-3-3 formation): Buffon; Lichtsteiner, Barzagli, Chiellini, Evra; Sturaro, Lemina, Pogba; Cuadrado, Mandzukic, Morata

Frosinone starting lineup (4-4-2 formation): Leali; Rosi, Diakite, Blanchard, Pavlovic; Paganini, Sammarco, Chibsah, Tonev; Longo, Dionisi
