Read on for more stats ahead of the crunch match at Vinovo.
FIRST ENCOUNTER - Juventus have emerged victorious from from their first meeting of the season with Fiorentina in each of the previous five seasons. What's more, the Bianconere have not conceded a goal in this run.
TWICE SHY - Fiorentina have remained unbeaten only twice in nine Serie A matches against Juventus - a success on 21 April 2018 and a 2-2 draw on 22 January 2022, the most recent clash between the two teams.
TOP GUN - With nine goals, Cristiana Girelli is the player that has scored the most in Serie A since the beginning of April, after having failed to score in the first three months of the year. Also, she is the current Serie A top scorer on seven goals in six matches. Should she find the net against the Viola she would surpass her total last season of seven goals in 17 games.
BRIGHT STARTERS - Fiorentina have won at least six of their first seven Serie A games of the season for the second time in their history, after 2016/17 when they won all their first 15 games. Furthermore, the Viola could collect four straight wins in a single championship for the first time since May 2021.
MILESTONE IN THE MAKING - If they win against Fiorentina, it will be Juve's 50th home victory in Serie A, making the Lady the first team capable of reaching this milestone in less than 60 domestic matches in the competition since the introduction of three points for a win in 1995/96.
