Juventus suffered their first
defeat in all competitions this season when they lost 1-0 at
Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on Wednesday.
The defeat has not done massive damage to the Italian
champions' hopes of reaching the knock-out stage, as Group A is
evenly balanced, with all four teams level on three points after
two games.
But it will not have helped team morale ahead of Sunday's
showdown with fellow Serie A pacesetters AS Roma, who were
impressive in a 1-1 draw at Manchester City in their Champions
League clash on Tuesday.
The Turin giants were sunk when Turkey midfielder Arda
Turan touched in from close range with 15 minutes to go for the
Spanish champions, runners-up in the competition last season.
It was the first time the Juventus defence had been
breached this season.
