Roma vs Juventus Preview
Italy, Serie A, Sunday, March 5th, 19:45 (UK)
Roma suffered a shock defeat at the hands of Cremonese in their last match. Jose Mourinho was sent off and grabbed the headlines when talking about the fourth official. The ‘Special One’ said he was provoked by the fourth official and threatened legal action. He will now be absent from the touchline for this clash.
I Giallorossi are just one point behind Lazio in the race for the top four. Lazio take on Napoli this weekend so a result against Juventus could prove to be pivotal. Roma haven’t beaten the Old Lady in the last five meetings. Their last win against them came away from home in 2020.
Juventus’ chances of seeing their points deduction rescinded are slim. The drama off the pitch in recent months has seen a place in the top four become something of a pipe dream for the club. However, they have continued to play well amidst the turbulence.
Allegri’s men are unbeaten in their last seven matches and have secured safe passage into the last 16 of the Europa League. That competition is seemingly now their only route into next season’s Champions League but they showed they are not ready to disregard the league in their last match. They put four past their local rivals, Torino on the way to victory.

Juventus had looked defensively sturdy in recent months but that went out of the window in their last match against Torino. They conceded two goals and looked shaky at the back. This is a hugely important game for Roma and they will want to take advantage of any frailties in the Juve ranks.
Roma have scored in their last five home matches and they have kept a clean sheet in the last four. The defensive records of each side against lesser opposition mean we are getting a good price on goals here but the recent head-to-heads suggest that both teams to score is a good bet. The reverse fixture at the Allianz Stadium finished 1-1.
The meetings between these sides have typically been feisty affairs. There have been four cards or more awarded in the last six encounters.
Roma’s home matches in Serie A this season are averaging 4.82 cards per game. Juve’s matches on the road are averaging 4.64 cards per game so the required mark for this bet looks reasonable.
