Roma vs Juventus Form and Head to Head
The Giallorossi approach this encounter in strong domestic form, having emphatically beaten Cremonese 3-0 in their last Serie A outing. This victory extends their impressive run, with the capital club recording two wins, three draws, and just one defeat in their last six competitive matches.
Notably, Roma have found their scoring boots, netting at least two goals in their last three Serie A fixtures. Their home form has been particularly impressive, ranking 2nd in the league over the last six home games, securing 16 points from a possible 18.
In stark contrast, Juventus have endured a torrid spell recently. Their last Serie A match saw them suffer a disappointing 0-2 home defeat against Como. This result contributes to a concerning sequence of just one draw and four losses in their last six competitive 90-minute matches, including a Champions League exit and a Coppa Italia defeat.
The Bianconeri's defensive solidity has also wavered, as they have conceded at least two goals in their last three Serie A games. Their recent overall form ranks them 11th in the league over the last six matches, a worrying statistic for a club of their stature.
The previous meeting between these two Italian giants saw Juventus claim a 2-1 victory over Roma in a Serie A encounter back on December 20th, 2025. Over their last six encounters, the head-to-head record shows a slight advantage for the Turin club, with Juventus winning two games, Roma securing one victory, and three matches ending in draws.
A deeper dive into history reveals Juventus’s enduring dominance in this fixture, as they remain undefeated in 10 of their last 11 matches against the Giallorossi across all competitions. Interestingly, three of the last six meetings between these teams at Roma's home ground have seen under 2.5 goals.

Roma vs Juventus Team News
Roma are grappling with a significant injury list ahead of this crucial fixture. The home side will be without the services of Artem Dovbyk, Paulo Dybala, and Stephan El Shaarawy, all of whom are sidelined with various injuries. These absences will undoubtedly test the depth of their squad.
Juventus also have their share of concerns, with Dusan Vlahovic missing due to a groin injury and Emil Holm nursing a foot injury. Adding to their woes, Manuel Locatelli is suspended and will be unavailable for selection.

Roma vs Juventus Match Prediction
Roma come into this match in good domestic form, sitting comfortably inside the top four and looking sharp in attack. They have scored at least two goals in each of their last three Serie A matches, showing good creativity and threat from distance and set pieces. Their physical presence and ability to win aerial duels could cause problems for a Juventus defence that has occasionally struggled in those areas.
Juventus will rely on their strong historical record in this fixture and their quick counter-attacking style, which could punish Roma if they push forward too much. However, their recent defensive form has been concerning, with the team conceding two or more goals in each of their last three league games.
With both teams dealing with some squad absences, Roma’s better momentum in league play and home advantage give them a slight edge in what should be a closely fought contest.
Prediction: Roma 2-1 Juventus

K. Koné: Over 1.5 Fouls
Kone's a foul magnet, exceeding 1.5 fouls in 8 of his last 10 games with a tally across those starts reading 2,2,5,0,4,4,1,2,2,4. Playing in Juventus' high-octane midfield against Roma's quick transitions guarantees he'll be lunging in regularly.
Yes – Both Teams To Score
BTTS has landed in 3 of the last 4 head-to-heads and 4 of the last 5 at Roma's home, pointing to end-to-end action in this Serie A heavyweight. Both sides boast firepower and concede in big clashes, making goals at both ends a banker.
Donyell Malen: Over 0.5 Shots On Target
Malen's red-hot, clearing 0.5 shots on target in all 6 of his last 6 (1,2,2,1,3,2) while bagging 4 goals in his last 3. Roma's defence offers space for his pace, and he's got the shots to beat the keeper.
Kenan Yıldız: Over 0.5 Shots On Target
Yıldız is deadly on target, hitting over 0.5 in 7 of his last 8 with his most recent 5 reading 2,1,0,1,3. Juventus' attacking setup funnels chances his way, and Roma's backline won't shut him out completely.
