Juventus’ chase for a record-equalling fifth consecutive Scudetto will kick off on the weekend of 22 August at Juventus Stadium against Stefano Colantuono’s Udinese.

The omens are good for Massimiliano Allegri’s men who defeated the Zebrette 2-0 in their first home game of last season as well as on the opening days of the 1960/61 and 1986/87 seasons.

In what could be a testing start to the campaign, Juventus will already have faced three potential title contenders on the road by the eighth round of fixtures in the form of Roma, Napoli and Inter.

The Bianconeri’s early away trips come between home games against Serie A new boys Frosinone and Bologna.

The first of two big weekends for the city of Turin will fall on Matchday 11 as Juventus welcome city rivals Torino on the weekend of the club's 118th anniversary celebrations for what is sure to be a special occasion at Juventus Stadium. The second installment of the Derby della Mole takes place on the weekend of 20 March.

In the run-in before the winter break, the reigning champions travel to Lazio and host Fiorentina before heading to Carpi for the last game of the calendar year.

Juve will conclude their season away at Sampdoria on 14 May, an earlier finish than usual due to the European Championships in June in France.
