Maurizio Sarri’s Juventus had the worst performance observed in Serie A statistics in the last nine title-winning seasons of the club. On July 26, Juve had been crowned champions of Italy for the 9th time in a row, having beaten down Sampdoria 2-0 at the Allianz Stadium. Although Sarri’s men feared the Scudetto with two matches still left, they garnered a lot of benefit from the inconsistent form of their main title rivals- Lazio, Inter and Atalanta. The Bianconeri had only won twice out of their final eight matches and had concluded the campaign with back-to-back defeats against Roma and Cagliari. Sarri has seen his team defeated both in the Italian Super Cup and Coppa Italia finals. However, he can silence his critics only by performing well in the Champions League later this month.
