Having enjoyed a strong start to the Serie A season, Juventus return from the international break on Saturday afternoon, when Lazio arrive in Turin.

Unbeaten after three rounds, Juve's form has not been matched by their Roman counterparts, who began with back-to-back defeats before beating the Scudetto holders.

Max Allegri's men also posted another clean sheet, as goals from Danilo and Federico Chiesa secured maximum points, and they have conceded just one goal so far this season, in a 1-1 draw with Bologna at the end of last month.

Reflecting Allegri's conservative style, another shut-out this week would see Juve keep a clean sheet in three of their first four games for the second year running, but such an approach relies on both Chiesa and strike partner Dusan Vlahovic being fully fit and firing on all cylinders in attack.

While injury-plagued Chiesa had to withdraw from Italy duty last week, he hopes to return in time for the visit of Lazio, who Juventus have beaten nine times from 12 attempts since they moved into the Allianz Stadium in 2011.

Although the Bianconeri lost their most recent league meeting with the Biancocelesti - a 2-1 reverse in April's clash at Stadio Olimpico - they had secured four wins and two draws in the teams' previous six encounters, so precedent is certainly on their side this weekend.
