Juventus to Win
Juventus were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Napoli on Thursday, though the Old Lady could get back to winning ways at Roma on Sunday. Jose Mourinho’s Giallorossi were convincingly beaten 3-1 at Milan the same evening and Roma lost two players – Rick Karsdorp and Gianluca Mancini – to late red cards. With both their confidence and ranks depleted, Roma could lose their third encounter in a row with Juve.
Both Teams to Score
Though the final result went against them, Roma managed to notch for the fifth game in a row through their consolation effort against Milan on Thursday. The team’s knack for impacting the scoresheet could allow them to make similar waves against Juventus, though a clean sheet for Roma against a side that has registered in 17 of their last 18 Serie A assignments seems unlikely. With that considered, we recommend backing both teams to score in Rome.
