Preview: Juventus vs. Roma

The top two sides in Serie A will meet on Monday afternoon when Juventus play host to AS Roma at the Juventus Stadium.

Antonio Conte's side, who hold a five-point lead over their opponents, have won their last nine league matches.

Roma will be hoping to continue their unbeaten record in the league this season, which they extended to 17 games with a 4-0 win over Catania in their last match.

Conte could select the same Juventus side that beat Atalanta last time out, which would see Carlos Tevez and Fernando Llorente continue in attack.

Roma coach Rudi Garcia is expected to bring midfielders Daniele De Rossi and Kevin Strootman back into the side after the pair missed the Catania victory.
