AS Roma need a win to secure their place in the UEFA Champions League next season and taking on a Juventus side that has nothing much to play for could be a welcome prospect at this point in time. Juventus needs a point to be confirmed champions but with a +16 goal difference and with two matches to go there is absolutely no way they will be beaten to the title. Roma suffered a heartbreak in the Champions League recently but recovered to beat Cagliari in Serie A while Juventus, who also exited the Champions League on a big heartbreak, head to this game straight from a 4 – 0 win over AC Milan that won them the Coppa Italia. Juventus have netted 11 goals in their last five matches, averaging something above two goals per game while Roma have scored 14 in the last five matches, averaging just under three goals per game which could just give them the edge here but taking on a team fresh from putting four goals past AC Milan is not a joke. Roma have not lost any of their last five league matches, winning four and drawing one then keeping three clean sheets in the process while Juventus have won five of their last eight league matches and a key aspect that Roma will need to work on is Juventus’ form away from home, having gone unbeaten in their last 12 away league matches, 12 of those having ended in wins. On their part, Roma have managed five wins, four losses and a draw in the last 10 at home. Roma beat Juventus 3 – 1 in the corresponding fixture last season, which was their only win over Juve in the last four competitive meetings. They’d want a repeat of the same in this game to secure their top four place. Head to head, the two sides have faced off 53 times and Roma have managed 13 wins and Juventus 25.
