Roma vs. Juventus Preview and Free Pick

Juventus is practically qualified for the next Champions League and must now visit Roma, who are in a different situation, being within Atalanta’s reach.

The Vecchia Signora is coming from a 0-0 draw at home against second-placed AC Milan, so it could not get closer to second place.

La Lupa could have moved closer to fourth place but ended up drawing 2-2 with Napoli, saving the point with a late goal by Tammy Abraham.

Why Bet on Roma?

Roma have their sights set on winning the Europa League, which is their main objective for the remainder of the season, given that they are in the semifinals. However, they lost in the first leg with Bayer Leverkusen (0-2), so now, thinking of moving up positions in Serie A would not be bad for them. 

The Lupa is coming from a 2-2 draw with Napoli away from home. They were 2-1 down, but in the 89th minute, Englishman Tammy Abraham came on to save the point at the Diego Maradona stadium. The team from the Italian capital has lost three of its last 10 matches. Their defeats came against Bologna, Brighton, and Bayer Leverkusen, the last two in European competition. 

Roma has been able to reach a total of 59 points, four points behind fourth-placed Bologna. However, they have only two points more than Atalanta, who also have a game in hand. It should be remembered that the top five teams will go to the Champions League, while the sixth will be in the Europa League and the seventh in the Conference. 

The Roman team has 17 wins, eight draws, and nine defeats. They have won three of their last five home games while losing the other two. 

It is also important for Roma that Abraham has scored. He recovered from a long knee injury, and this was his sixth match since then. Meanwhile, defender Chris Smalling is still recovering.

Why Bet on Juventus?

Juventus had the obligation to fight until the last moment for the Serie A title with Inter and Milan, but they were disappointed and were left halfway, so now they only have the goal of securing their third place or, at best, taking the second place from AC Milan. Last weekend, the Bianconero were able to take points off the Rossoneri, but at home, they were held 0-0, and that has been a problem for this team, they cannot score. 

They only scored 47 goals in the campaign, the second-worst record among the top eight clubs in the Serie A. Their best converter is Dusan Vlahovic, with 16 goals, but the second-highest scorer is Chiesa, with only seven. The Serbian Vlahovic has scored just two goals in the Vecchia Signora’s last six matches. 

On the other hand, their 26 goals conceded make this team the second-best defense, only surpassed by the 18 conceded by Inter. The Bianconero have drawn three games in a row, and only against Cagliari did they score (2-2).What’s more, in the last six matches, they could only score three goals, and they scored them in two matches.

Manuel Locatelli, who is suspended for this match, is the only absentee. 

Final Betting Analysis: Roma vs. Juventus

This season, both teams played in Turin, and Juventus won 1-0 with a goal from French midfielder Adrien Rabiot. Meanwhile, the last time they played in the Italian capital, the Romans won by the same score with a goal from Gianluca Mancini. 

The numbers at Gambyl Exchange have Juventus as the favorite. Their Moneyline shows 2.806, Roma has 2.977, and the draw is at 3.095.

Juventus has been terrible since they lost with Inter some months ago, sentencing the title race. We believe this trend will continue with a loss at the Olimpico by 3-1.

Go for a victory for Rome. If you bet $100 at 2.977, you will gain $197.7 for a total payout of $297.7.
