The reverse fixture had ended in a 1-1 draw, for which Pioli’s men had played the role of the hosts. It was a pretty indisciplined affair from the hosts, as the referee had to brandish seven yellow cards, and a red card against them.

After a tough set of sixty minutes, the home team finally found the breakthrough via Ante Rebic.

However, the Old Lady had other plans. Just when it seemed like Pioli’s men would walk away with the win, the guests were awarded a penalty kick, and the ever dependable Cristiano Ronaldo coolly converted it. 

As things stand, the Old Lady have the upper hand. They have the opportunity to play at home with the aggregate scoreline being tied, while they have an away goal in the kitty.

Moreover, the Old Lady have been on phenomenal form before the break. They had won ten of their preceding fifteen overall fixtures, and had won 18 of their last 20 appearances at home as well.

Going on, they had also recorded a combined scoreline of 20-2 from their past seven home fixtures.

On the other hand, their counterparts were winless in six of their past seven overall match-ups, and had even conceded four or more goals in two of their previous five road matches.

In addition, the Old Lady had won nine of the prior ten overall h2h clashes, and had scored two or more goals in seven of the preceding ten such games.

Moreover, at this stadium, the hosts are on a seven-game winning run in h2h meetings, and the last they lost in such a match was back in 2014.

Taking into account these observations, it’s evident that Juventus are on course to record a win this Friday.
