Juventus vs Roma Soccer Betting Tips – Serie A

Usually domineering in Serie A, Juventus is less to its advantage this season and only ranks 4th in the standings with 1 game less and 7 points behind the leaders, AC Milan. Long undefeated in the league, the Bianconeri still showed some shortcomings with many draws. After having bowed in the den of Inter (2-0), they reacted perfectly by winning the Italian Super Cup against Naples (2-0) before winning against Bologna (2-0) and on the lawn of Sampdoria (0-2) during the last 2 days. In the middle of the week, the Old Lady took an option on qualifying for the Italian Cup final by winning her semi-final first leg disputed in the den of Inter (1-2).

Roma is currently 3rd in Serie A and have 1 game and 1 point ahead of their opponent of the day. Rather consistent since the start of the championship, the Giallorossi have lost only one of their last 7 league games, for 5 wins and 1 draw. After being slapped in the lair of Lazio Rome (3-0), they resumed their march forward with successes gleaned, at home each time, against Spezia (4-3) and Hellas Verona on last weekend (3-1).

The workforce for Juventus vs Roma

For Juve, Argentine striker Dybala remains unavailable this weekend, injured, while Uruguayan midfielder Betancur is suspended. Also, absent this week in the Italian Cup, Welsh playmaker Ramsey is not guaranteed to be able to hold his place. In top form, Cristiano Ronaldo is the current Serie A top scorer with 15 goals and gave the Bianconeri a nice advantage against Inter on Tuesday by scoring a brace. The Old Lady has the best defense in the championship.

Roma still has to do without long-absent prodigy Zaniolo, replacement Pastore and recently returned winger from loan El Shaarawy. In addition, the very good Pellegrini is suspended and the participation of the Spanish winger Pedro is not yet assured. Recently dismissed for a possible departure, Edin Dzeko finally stayed and rejoined the group. He could still start on the bench because his replacement Borja Mayoral took the opportunity to highlight (5 goals in his last 3 starts). Armenian international Mkhitaryan (8 goals and 8 assists in the league) is having an excellent season.
