Juventus face a tricky trip to Tuscany on Sunday for Matchday 29 of this Serie A season, with Fiorentina set to host the Bianconeri.

Ahead of Sunday evening’s 18:00 CET kick-off, get up to speed with some pre-match statistics.

Head-to-head

• This will be the 172nd game between Fiorentina and Juventus in Serie A, of which the Bianconeri have won 82 and drawn 54.
• Juventus are the side to have won the most games (82) and scored the most goals (274) against Fiorentina in the Italian top flight.
• The two sides drew 2-2 back on 29 December, and this could become the first time they’ve drawn both seasonal Serie A matches since 2010/11.
• The Bianconeri are unbeaten in seven of their last eight Serie A matches against Fiorentina (four wins, three draws).
• In each of the last five games against the Viola, Juventus have scored in the first half.
• Fiorentina have only lost more home Serie A matches against AC Milan (27) than against Juventus (24).

Interesting Facts

• Fiorentina don’t have a single draw in any of their last eight league games (four wins, four draws). They are, though, averaging just one point per game in their last 14.
• Juventus haven’t lost back-to-back league matches since February 2024.
• The Bianconeri have won their last two away matches - against Como and Cagliari - and could win three on the road in a row for the first time since doing so between December 2023 and January 2024.

Player Numbers

• Dusan Vlahovic currently has 99 goal involvements in Serie A thanks to 86 goals and 13 assists. In five games against Fiorentina, he hasn’t managed to have a hand in a goal, which is his longest such record against any opponent (five also against Monza).
• Randal Kolo Muani scored in each of his first two away games played as a starter after joining Juventus. Only two other players have previously scored in their first three away starts for the club in the era of three points for a win: Patrick Vieira and David Trezeguet.
• Pierre Kalulu is the player with the highest average number of touches per 90 minutes this Serie A season with 97.3, among players with more than 15 appearances.

Opposition Focus

• Moise Kean has scored 15 Serie A goals this season and could become the second Italian to score more than 15 for the Viola in a Serie A season after Giuseppe Rossi hit 16 in 2013/14.
• Kean could also become the third Fiorentina player to score in his first two games against the Bianconeri in Serie A in the era of three points for a win, after Josip Ilicic in 2015 and Giampaolo Pazzini in 2005.
• Albert Gudmundsson’s first Serie A goal came against Juventus, while playing with Genoa on 6 May, 2022. He has scored twice against the Bianconeri in Serie A, and hasn’t managed to score more goals against any other side in the league.
