As things stand, two sides in Europe's biggest leagues remain that still have a 100% win record, and they are both in Serie A. Not surprisingly, it's reigning Scudetto winners Juventus and runners-up Roma that hold that honor and already the Bianconeri and the Giallorossi appear to be the only two sides that realistically will be the ones battling for the league crown again this season.
More impressive for Massimiliano Allegri's men is the fact that no one has been able to find a way past them to score a single goal since the season commenced--both in their domestic and continental campaigns. The only other side to boast such a record is Barcelona, who, despite now slipping into second place can still boast another of the strongest defenses across the continent.
Returning to calcio, in theory, this match away to Atalanta should be a very easy three points for Allegri's troops. Not only have the hosts failed to beat their opponents in their last five games, with the last time they even earned a point was on May 17, 2009 (a 2-2 draw) but also they have among the poorest performing attacks so far this season.
Coming off the back of two straight losses in which they couldn't find the back of the net, the Bergamo-based outfit will be desperate to do everything they can to frustrate the league winners and eke out a point in front of their home fans.
Although Juventus have a Champions League meeting with Atletico Madrid looming on the horizon, Allegri will probably still field his strongest line-up available, given the fact that Roma will be pushing them all the way in this season's Scudetto race.
As La Dea welcome La Vecchia Signora this Saturday things don't look good for the hosts, as they ended up being humiliated 4-1 at home and were defeated 1-0 in Turin last season. In fact, the last time they defeated the Bianconeri in a league (not Coppa Italia) match was back on February 3, 2001 when they emerged triumphant with a 2-1 score-line.
