In the early morning of October 27, a focus battle took place in the 8th round of Serie A. Juventus played as a guest against Lazio. In the end, the home team defeated Juventus 1-0 and successfully scored 3 points. This also led to Juventus not winning for 5 consecutive rounds and starting to fall behind in the championship.

In the Champions League a few days ago, Juventus fought hard for 90 minutes, but lost to Real Madrid 0-1. Returning to Serie A this time, Juventus held their breath to prove themselves again. Unexpectedly, Juventus suffered a blow in the first 9 minutes.

At that time, Juventus made a mistake in the backcourt. Lazio took the ball and attacked on the spot. Basic shot hard. The ball hit the Juventus player and changed direction, and finally flew into the door. This goal also put Juventus into a desperate situation.

After losing the ball, Juventus counterattacked and they once created an opportunity, but unfortunately they failed to seize it. In the 34th minute, David received a through ball from Cambiaso and faced the home team's goalkeeper alone, but his shot was saved. After that, Juventus was unable to recover and had to lose in the away game.

After this game, Juventus has been winless for 5 consecutive rounds in Serie A and dropped to 8th place. At the beginning of the season, Juventus was once one of the best performing teams in Serie A. After the first three rounds, they scored 9 points and tied for the top spot. Especially after defeating Inter Milan 4-3 at home, Juventus was regarded by many as the favorite to win the championship. Unexpectedly, in the next 5 games, Juventus had 3 draws and 2 losses without winning, and they had begun to fall behind in the championship battle. As of now, Juventus is already 6 points behind Naples at the top of the list. If they don't regain their form as soon as possible, I believe Juventus' ranking will continue to decline, and they will have problems competing for fourth place in a row.

‍ Juventus has gradually declined, but Serie A has never lacked surprises. In this round of competition, Roma defeated Sassuolo 1-0 away from home, and they became the only team in Serie A to win all away games. With this victory, Roma currently ranks in the top two with 18 points, becoming the biggest dark horse in Serie A this season.

This season, Roma's biggest improvement is that its defense is airtight. After the first 8 rounds, Roma only conceded 3 goals in Serie A and is the best defensive team in Serie A. In previous seasons, defense often held Roma back, causing them to fall short in their efforts. As strong as Mourinho, it has not been able to solve the team's defensive problems. Unexpectedly, after Gasperini took charge, without much investment, Roma's defense was completely transformed. The only drawback is that Roma only scored 8 goals in the first 8 rounds and their offensive performance was average. Next, if Gasperini can improve the team's offense, then Roma will hope to compete with strong teams such as Naples and Inter Milan for the league championship this season!
