Roma Preview – Can Roma frustrate Juventus?
Sunday’s hosts, Roma, were unable to extend their useful unbeaten run in the Italian top flight last weekend when they suffered a 2-0 defeat at home to Torino which raised more than just a few eyebrows, so they’ll be keen to set the record straight on home turf against Juventus in this clash.
Roma had previously put together a strong 5-match sequence without defeat in Serie A by collecting wins against Brescia, Hellas Verona, SPAL and Fiorentina – the latter being a 4-1 win away from home.
The hosts also earned a solid point away from home in a 0-0 draw on the road at Serie A league leaders, Inter Milan, so this will give them belief that they can perform against this impressive Juventus outfit.
Roma possess a reasonable looking home record of 5-2-2 18/13 which includes winning 4 of their last 5 matches at the Stadio Olimpico, while their record against Juventus at home in the past few meetings has been solid as they’re unbeaten in their last 6 matches against the Old Lady at home.
Juventus Preview – Can Juventus win four on trot?
The visitors bring a 3-match winning streak into this important Sunday clash in Rome where Juventus will be looking to capture a fourth league win on the trot following previous victories over Udinese, Sampdoria and Cagliari, the latter being a 4-0 romp on home turf at their Allianz Stadium.
Juventus had previously stuttered temporarily though as the visitors drew 2-2 at home with Sassuolo along with a heavy 3-1 loss away at Lazio, so they’ve shown they can be vulnerable on occasions.
The visitors possess a solid looking away record of 6-2-1 13/8 which includes the second highest number of away wins in the Italian top flight, but they’ve kept just 3 clean sheets on the road so far this season and this could give Roma a chance of getting something from this encounter.
