Roma vs Juventus Prediction: Will the Giallorossi be able to break the resistance of the Bianconeri?

Roma has been unable to beat Juventus since August 2020 - five games in a row. Will the Giallorossi be able to break the resistance of the Bianconeri this time?

In the previous round, the Romans fell apart. The Giallorossi failed to beat Cremonese on the road. They lost not just points but allowed a modest opponent to get their first win in the current championship - 1:2. At the beginning of the second half Roma also lost their head coach Jose Mourinho, who got a red card will now miss the meeting against Juventus.

It's hard to justify the defeat in Cremona, although it's fair to say that AS Roma played this game after their success in the Europa League, in which they beat Austria's Salzburg 2:0 and made it through to the round of 16. Now the Romans are facing Spanish Real Sociedad; the first meeting is scheduled for this Thursday.

The Turin side also played in the Europa League last week and confidently got past French side Nantes in the round of 16, beating them 3:0 at home after a 1:1 home defeat. But the championship game was not affected. Juventus confidently beat Torino 4:2 in the derby, scoring twice. Juventus climbed to seventh place in the standings, but without the sanction of losing 15 points, they would now be in second place.

It should also be noted that, as well as Roma, Juventus will face their first meeting in the round of 16 of the Europa League on Thursday. Their rivals are German Freiburg.

Bookmakers expect the central meeting of the 25th round of the Italian championship will be very low-scoring and, most likely, happen that way. Only two of Roma's 11 home games and only two of Juventus' 11 away games have been high-productive. The defense of both teams is superior to the offense, and on Thursday, both teams play in the Europa League. As the previous matches of Juventus and Roma showed in this tournament, it is at least as crucial for them as the championship. In general, we bet on the total under, and as for the outcome, it seems that anyone can win here. A draw or victory of one of the opponents with a minimum score is quite probable.
