    Juventus-Roma, latest news and predicted lineups

    Juventus take on Roma in a home game tonight. The J Stadium clash will be very important in the scudetto race as the Old Lady is the current table leaders and is enjoying a four points lead over second placed AS Roma.

    According to our reporters in Turin, Juventus’ defender Bedhi Benatia is set to start tonight’s clash in place of Daniele Rugani at the back, though Paulo Dybala is likely to start on bench with Mario Mandzukic and Gonzalo Higuain up front.

    Andrea Barzagli has recovered but is not likely to star either with Max Allegri who should deploy a 4-3-1-2 formation.

    As for Roma, Egyptian star Mohammed Salah was a major doubt yesterday but according to our sources, he should start the game in Roma’s trident alongside Diego Perotti and Edin Dzeko.
