The team is now in good shape, in the last round of the championship managed to beat away Genoa with a score of 1:0, this victory was the fourth in five confrontations.
Juventus

In the last round the team lost away to Cagliari with a score of 0:2, but eventually played 2:2, this draw was the second consecutive.
Juventus has nothing to catch in the championship, but to win the national cup is quite realistic, especially since the club is one foot in the final, it is important not to lose a comfortable head start.
