Juventus Women are back in action this Sunday, and the test they face couldn’t be much bigger as they are on the road to take on Serie A leaders Roma. Kick-off in the capital is set for 16:00 on Sunday, February 4.
The two sides have become heavyweight opponents in recent seasons, meeting in finals and being locked in yet another Serie A title race against one another.
Looking ahead to the game and just under a month after the Bianconere beat the Giallorosse in the Italian Super Cup final, we’ve dug into some of the statistics surrounding the fixture.
Stats & Facts | Roma-Juventus Women
FEARED FOES | Juventus are the side against whom Roma have lost the most times in Serie A and in all competitions - 14. The Bianconere are also the side against whom Roma have conceded the most goals (42), and one of the two sides (along with Barcelona) that they have conceded five goals against in a single game.
BACK ON TRACK | Juventus lost last time on the road at Roma but, before that, the Bianconere had won five from five away to the Giallorosse.
DOUBLE TROUBLE | Since the beginning of last season, no players have been involved in more goals against Roma than Julia Grosso and Cristiana Girelli - two goals and two assists each. Grosso scored against Roma at home already this season.
RISING HIGH | Cristiana Girelli has scored the most goals against Roma across all competitions with eight - at least three more than any other player.
INSTANT IMPACT | Among the players with at least two goals this calendar year in Europe’s top-five leagues, Jennifer Echegini is the player to have scored her two goals in the fewest minutes, just 34.
