A Rome derby on Sunday night, with the capital clubs joint-third and fighting desperately to cling to their Champions League berths. This is hardly the norm in a division that has averaged more goals per game than the Premier League in 2017-18. If there was one truly predictable element, it was this: by the end of it all, Juventus were celebrating. To qualify for Champions League football, though, typically requires a consistent capacity for sticking the ball in the net. But Roma face a further six games in three weeks, including the two legs of their Champions League semi with Liverpool.
