Roma have done a great job so far with Mourinho in the league. They won five of their seven league matches so far. They lost the other two but one of them was against Lazio away so it was a normal loss I think. But losing to Verona wasn't very ideal of course. But it is for sure that we are watching a much better Roma than the last season. They have a big chance to end the season in top 4 as long as they keep up the good work.
Looking at Roma this season from the previous season, it seems to be quite stable. Mourinho is able to continue his work properly. He is very experienced. Despite the defeat against Lazio, I would say that Roma performed well enough. Their opponent in the next match is Juventus. Without Ronaldo, Juventus is having a bad time. Mourinho must take this opportunity. And you have to earn 3 points from this match. Although it will not be easy.
Juventus
were having a bad time in fact. But they are not anymore. If you check their last league matches out, you will understand what I mean. They have won three times in a row in the Serie A lately. This helped them gain their self-confidence again after a long break. Normally, a team like Juventus should be able to do a great job still without Ronaldo. Because they didn't have Ronaldo before when they dominated the league for many years.
But I must admit that the Juventus - Roma match will be very tough for both teams.
Juventus did start this season very badly, imagine a team as big as Juventus having a hard time getting a win at the start of this season.
But finally Juventus returned to the right path by winning 3 times in a row, it looks like Juventus are now getting used to playing without
Ronaldo. Because we know Ronaldo's contribution is so great for Juventus, so losing Ronaldo is not easy for Juventus. The next opponent
that Juventus will face is Roma, which we know Roma is not a team that Juventus can easily beat. To be honest, the Juventus vs Roma match is
a very difficult match to predict. Both teams have the same chance to win the match, actually a draw is quite fair for both teams.
