(Football news) In the end, Juventus wants to win the Coppa for a record 15 times in May. The victors will play in a quarterfinal match against Frosinone. Champions in 2022, having won a record-breaking 14 Coppa titles with a victory against Atalanta, Juventus was eliminated from the Derby d’Italia semifinal against Inter Milan the previous season and is now hungry for further hardware.

The Bianconeri, who were barred from participating in UEFA tournaments this season after serving a one-year ban, have been forced to focus on pursuing their longtime rivals Inter at the top of Serie A. Despite enduring two years of conflict, they remain a chance to win the domestic double.

With 13 league games played without a loss and only two points below the first spot in the rankings, Allegri, the club’s new coach, has gradually established his authority over an already struggling team.

Rabiot’s goal just after halftime separated the two teams that like to sit deep and counterattack as Juventus defeated Roma in the Saturday night Serie A matchup at the Allianz Stadium.

Juventus has undoubtedly regained the ability to hold opponents at bay and strike when the chance presents itself after winning no fewer than 12 league games by a 1-0 scoreline in 2023. They have also not given up more than once in their last 14 home games, giving up just seven goals in that time.

Now that they are playing in a doubleheader against Salernitana on Thursday, Allegri’s team is in good form. This weekend, Juventus will play a Serie A match at Salerno.   Though Salernitana’s last league trip to Turin ended in a 2-2 tie, with three players sent off in stoppage time and Juventus equalizing late in the match, they were unable to duplicate that kind of performance in February, losing 3-0 at Stadio Arechi.
