Overview

  • Juventus and Lazio drew 1-1 in Serie A's 36th round after Matías Vecino's stoppage-time equalizer canceled out Kolo Muani's opener.
  • Pierre Kalulu's 60th-minute red card for striking Nicolás Castellanos left Juventus playing with 10 men for over 30 minutes.
  • Juventus and Lazio are tied on 64 points, with Roma at 63 and Atalanta at 68; Atalanta vs. Roma tomorrow will heavily influence the Champions League race.
  • Juventus must win their last two matches, against Udinese and Venezia, to have a chance at fourth place, relying on head-to-head advantages if points are tied.
  • Suspensions (Kalulu) and injuries further complicate Juventus' path, while Udinese will also miss key players in their upcoming clash.
