Juventus take on the visitors AS Roma in the round 18 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Saturday, December 30th at Allianz Stadium (Turin).
Juventus can now focus on only one goal. The Old Lady have shown mediocre results for several years, falling short of the grandeur that almost secured a decade of consecutive championship titles. There was noticeable progress in the previous season, but an investigation nullified everything. As a result, Bianconeri initially lost 10 points and were then barred from European competitions. Despite these circumstances, Max Allegri managed to motivate his team sufficiently, and they displayed good football and results. However, even at home, the Zebras only managed a draw with the leader, Inter, and then replicated a 1-1 result against Genoa. Frosinone also aimed for a draw, but Vlahovic's goal in the 81st minute secured a 2-1 victory for the Zebras.

Roma have struggled to return to the Champions League for a long time. Bringing in Jose Mourinho in 2021, with great fanfare, was evidently an attempt to achieve that goal. However, the Portuguese coach has been more of a disappointment. While he won the Conference League, last season, Giallorossi lost the Europa League final and earned fewer points in Serie A than the previous year. In the current cycle, Mourinho's team often faces defeats (although they progressed through the Europa League with a loss to Slavia Prague and a draw with Servette). Other contenders for the 4th place are not more stable, and the Roman team has climbed into the quartet. However, they immediately lost to their competitor, Bologna. Yet, confirming their unpredictability, they secured a confident 2-0 win against Napoli.
In the 2021-2022 season, Juventus had three consecutive victories. However, last season, Roma managed a 1-1 draw in Turin and defeated the Bianconeri playing with a numerical disadvantage at home. The Old Lady will be the favorite at home, but both teams are quite pragmatic. We bet on Total Under 2.0 Goals.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.0 scored goals.
