Juventus Women’s first game of 2024 couldn’t be much bigger, and there is a lot on the line as the Bianconere step onto the pitch in Cremona on Sunday to take on Roma.

At 15:15 CET, the Bianconere are again in action against familiar foes in Roma with the Italian Super Cup trophy up for grabs. The two sides will do battle at the Stadio Giovanni Zini in Cremona, and not for the first time with silverware up for grabs.

Looking ahead to the action, we’ve flagged some of the more interesting statistics around the fixture.

GOOD RECORD | Juventus have won 13 of their 18 games against Roma in all competitions, drawing two and losing three of those. However, two of those defeats have come in the last four games.

GUARANTEES | Two of Serie A’s top-three goalscorers in 2023 will be on opposing sides on Sunday, with Cristiana Girelli (19) going up against Valentina Giacinti (16). Ex-Inter forward Tabitha Chawinga makes up the three (17), though she no longer plays in Italy.

ALL EYES ON CRI | Cristiana Girelli has scored the most goals against Roma for Juventus in all competitions - eight, which is at least three more than any other Bianconera. Five of those have come in Serie A, two in the Italian Cup and the other in the Super Cup.

CREATING FROM DEEP | No defender has created more chances in Serie A this season than Lisa Boattin’s 23. As well, no defender has more assists than her two - level with two Roma players (Eseosa Aigbogun and Elisa Bartoli, as well as Inter’s Andrine Tomter).

MEETING AN EX | Lindsey Thomas scored 14 goals in 49 Roma appearances between 2019 and 2021, and she has been in fine form for Juventus this season, scoring six goals across all competitions and all of those coming since October. Only fellow Bianconera Lineth Beerensteyn (eight), and Roma pair Manuela Giugliano (eight) and Evelyne Viens (seven) have more.
