Series A, Sunday, 01.09.2024 at 20:45
Can this match be called a cracker? On paper for sure! However, it won’t be as close a game as it might have been in recent years.
In my Juventus AS Roma betting tip, I’ll explain why Juve will win with relative ease this time. The 2024 hosts may no longer play delicate soccer under Thiago Motta, but they do play highly effective soccer
Football is not like math, where A & B and B & C automatically means that A & C. Nevertheless, the last performance of the “Old Lady” made me wonder whether they might not already be the best team in Serie A.
On the first matchday, the surprisingly strong Verona made SSC Napoli look pretty old in their 3-0 win, so I was looking forward to the subsequent clash with Juve last Monday.
Juventus impressed me enormously with their 3-0 win. Verona didn’t play badly at all and put in a similarly good performance as against Napoli, but this time their opponents were simply better
Thiago Motta has managed to improve Juve’s transition moments in a very short space of time.
In the aforementioned 3-0 win, the first two goals came from high ball recoveries or mistakes by the opposition, which Juventus exploited with ice-cold precision.
It is precisely this cool-headedness that makes me believe that Juve will also win their third Serie A game. The Romans, on the other hand, are currently lacking in ideas.
After a dismal 0-0 draw against Cagliari and a 2-1 defeat to Empoli, I would go as far as to say that the capital side are the most disappointing European Cup team of the 2024/25 Serie A season so far
Juve have a real footballing genius on the sidelines in Thiago Motta, who knows exactly how to win games.
In comparison, Daniele de Rossi doesn’t look quite as mature as a coach – more of a motivator, perhaps the Italian “Klinsmann”, but a real tactician? Something is still missing.
Statistically speaking, everything should be clear as far as a sensible Juventus AS Roma betting tip is concerned anyway!
Because since 2012, Juventus have won 11 of a total of 13 Serie A home games against the Romans. Consequently, I can’t help but want to place a home win bet here
Then there’s the fact that the Romans have conceded goals in each of their last 21 Serie A away games against Juventus, without exception.
For this very reason, I have marked possible outcomes such as 1:0, 2:0 and 2:1 for the minimalist but highly effective “Old Lady” in my sports betting app.
A combination bet of the type “Bet 1 & Under 3.5 goals” fits like a glove here, promising odds of around 2.35 and also protecting you from another 3-0 win for Torino.
Soccer chroniclers see a possible golden age on the horizon for Juve should they also defeat Roma.
After all, a win would give the “Bianconeri” a perfect start with three wins in a row in Serie A for the first time since the 2018/19 season.
Even more impressively, if they win again without conceding a goal, it would be only the third time in the club’s history that Juventus have gone into matchday four with three wins and zero goals conceded.
By the way, I really like the Juventus AS Roma odds offered by the bookmakers.
Despite the obvious superiority of the hosts, you can still almost double your stake with a simple win bet on the Bianconeri.
The odds of 3.70 for a draw and 4.70 for an away win for the Romans may entice with high payouts, but in my opinion they are linked to a very low probability of success.
Given Juve’s current form and history in home games against Roma, I don’t see any real chance of a surprise from the visitors here
A quick update on the “Calciomercato”: I’m very surprised that Liverpool have picked up Federico Chiesa, especially as he hasn’t performed as well as hoped recently.
The Italian international is moving from Juventus to the Reds for a transfer fee of 10 million pounds plus 2.5 million pounds in performance-related bonuses.
Although Chiesa recently shone as a star in the Italian team at Euro 2020, he didn’t even make the squad this season under new Juventus coach Thiago Motta. Liverpool are definitely taking a risk here
Conclusion: Juventus go into the match against AS Roma as clear favorites and will mercilessly punish even the smallest mistakes by the capital city.
The visitors have looked uninspired so far and have failed to impress even against much weaker teams. Given this lack of form, a win at the Allianz Stadium seems almost impossible.
Juve, on the other hand, are ice-cold and will probably extend their winning streak.
