Juventus and Ronaldo are chasing a new record in 2018: winning the last seven Serie A games from here to the end of the year, the club would collect 103 points in the championship, doing better than any other Italian and European rival.
It’s not going to be that easy this achievement, considering that the Bianconeri have to face teams like Inter, Torino and Roma. But it’s also not impossible at all.
In 2018 Juventus played 31 league games winning 26 of the, drawing 4 and losing only one, the match against Napoli last season: a total of 82 points has been obtained. Juventus have also incredible defensive numbers. During the whole year, they took just 17 goals.
Meanwhile, Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri spoke to media ahead of tomorrow’s Serie A clash against Spal. Our own Lorenzo Bettoni was at the Allianz Stadium to attend the press conference.
Speaking about Ronaldo being out of the podium for the Ballon d’Or, Ronaldo said: “He is ok. He trained well yesterday but I must repeat myself and say he would deserve to win the Ballon d’Or.”
“He scored his first goal with his national team. An important step, especially for his self-confidence. He really loves his national team. The difficult improves every season, he’s been improving but we can’t stop. It all depends on him.”
“Khedira is out, Emre Can is getting fit and I hope he will be back in two weeks and be able to play at least 20-25 minutes. We don’t have problems in midfield, I want to see a solid approach because we’ve been struggling after International breaks sometimes.”
"Mandzukic and Ronaldo have a good understanding, like Paulo [Dybala] and Cristiano.Paulo and Mario [Mandzukic] have been playing together for more time so they know each other a little more. When they play all together they do well. There is a lot of competition during the trainings and I think Ronaldo has helped to develop this team spirit."
