The third round of the Serie A season 2024-2025 will present fans with a super match in Turin. “Juventus” on its field will examine the ambitious “Roma”. This confrontation is rightly considered a classic of Italian football and always takes place in an uncompromising struggle. Turin traditionally dominate, but the Romans have recently learnt to offer stubborn resistance.

Odds for Juventus vs Roma

Bookmakers see the Old Lady as favourites for the upcoming meeting. The odds for Juve’s victory range from 1.85-1.93. The Turin side are traditionally strong at home and have an impressive collection of individually strong performers.

However, Roma are more than serious opponents. The Wolves have tempting odds of 4.24 to 4.40. The Romans always fight to the end and are capable of surprising any opponent.

The draw outcome should not be discounted either. The odds for a draw are 3.54-3.68. Both teams know each other well enough, so a chess tactical struggle in the centre of the pitch could lead to an equal score on the scoreboard.

Bookmakers practically equalise the odds on the “top” and “draw” total. The prediction for TB 2.5 is estimated at odds of about 2.10, and for TM 2.5 – in the region of 1.73-1.79. On the one hand, the class of attacking players of both teams suggests a productive football. On the other hand, the principled nature of the match and the desire to avoid mistakes may tip the scales in favour of a defensive game.

Juventus vs Roma Match Prediction

Juve’s head-to-head meetings with Roma are true classics of the Calcio, with a history of 203 matches. Torino are ahead in all indicators – 96 wins against 49, 58 draws. They have scored 312 goals (1.54 per game) with Roma’s 216 (1.06).

But in recent years, the balance of power has begun to shift. From March 2023 to May 2024, the rivals played as follows: Roma win, Juve win, draw. This shows the increased competitiveness of the Roman club. Therefore, the match promises to be as hard-fought as possible.

Bookmakers give the advantage to the hosts, but not too confident. The odds on Juve’s victory are 1.85-1.93, while Roma have high odds of 4.24-4.40. The odds on a draw are also high at around 3.54-3.68.

“Juventus are stronger now, especially at home. But Roma know how to resist the grands, as the recent matches have shown. And the loss of points last season speaks about Juve’s problems. Therefore, an even match with few goals is most likely. Both teams will surely be careful to avoid defeat at the start. A fighting draw will be a natural outcome of this principled confrontation of equal rivals.

Prediction: total less than 2.5 for 1.798

Juventus

Last season, the team won the Italian Cup, defeating Atalanta 1-0 in the final. This victory was an important achievement for Torino and their head coach Massimiliano Allegri.

On the other hand, Juventus had numerous misfires in the championship. Draws with Bologna (3:3), Salernitana (1:1), Roma (1:1), Milan (0:0) and Cagliari (2:2) prevented the team from climbing higher in the Serie A standings. Defeat

At the same time, victories over Monza (2-0) in the league and Atalanta in the Cup showed that Juventus are still a formidable force in Italian football.

Roma

Roma started the new Serie A season with a 0-0 draw against Cagliari. The match with Empoli ended with a long-awaited victory …

The end of last season was not easy for Roma. In Serie A, the team suffered disappointing defeats to Empoli (2-1) and Atalanta (2-1). Draws with Juventus (1-1) and Napoli (2-2) also left mixed impressions.

At the same time, Roma won important victories over Genoa (1-0) and Udinese (1-2), which helped the team to keep its place in the Europa League zone. However, in the Europa League the Romans performed poorly, falling to Bayer (0:2 away, 2:2 at home) at the stage of the 1/2 finals.

The team is capable of beating strong opponents, but it loses points against more modest opponents. If the Romans want to progress, they need to improve their defensive play and add creativity in attack.
