PREVIEW: Juventus Women host Res Roma in home opener

After a 3-0 win in the inaugural Serie A match against Atalanta, Juventus Women return to action on Saturday hosting Roma Res at the Ale&Ricky Pitch in the first home league match for Rita Guarino's side.

Barbara Bonansea found the back of the net twice and the Juve defense held strong in last week's 3-0 win that sees the Bianconere tied at the top of the Women's Serie A, though behind Brescia and Tavagnacco on goal difference.

Saturday's opponent

Res Roma enjoyed an equally productive matchday one defeating Fimauto Valpolicella 3-0. Vanessa Nagni scored twice in the win while Claudia Palombi scored a third.

Last season, Res Roma finished a very respectable fifth in the table and will provide a stern test for the Juventus Women.
