The Bianconeri hold a slender advantage over Tuesday’s visitors Lazio in Coppa Italia encounters contested in Turin, winning four, drawing two and losing three of the nine encounters played over the years.
Let’s have a look at how these meetings have panned out:
1942 – Juventus crash out of the competition after the visitors reply twice to Ventimiglia’s double before snatching an eventual winner.
1960 – The hosts progress through to the final thanks to goals from Cervato, Lojodice and Charles. They would eventually go on to lift the trophy after seeing off Fiorentina in extra time at the San Siro.
1974 – Another 3-0 victory, this time featuring Bettega’s brace and a solo effort from Causio, puts the Biancocelesti to the sword.
1987 – Both sides play out a goalless draw in a tightly-contested affair.
1995 – Juventus book their place in the final after Marocchi and Baggio overturn Paulo Sousa’s own goal which had put the visitors in front. This season would see the Bianconeri taste Coppa Italia success, their ninth and most recent triumph in the club’s history.
1998 – Former Bianconeri frontman Boksic comes back to haunt his former employers with a decisive semi-final first leg winner.
2000 – Zidane, Conte and Kovacevic fire the hosts into a first half three-goal lead. The Bianconeri, however, take their foot off the gas after the break, allowing Ravanelli and Mancini to reduce the deficit in the quarter-final first leg encounter.
2004 – Lazio place their hands on the trophy after coming from behind to draw 2-2 at Turin’s Stadio Olimpico, with the first leg 2-0 win in the capital proving decisive.
2009 – The Biancocelesti earn their spot in the final courtesy of strikes from Zarate and Kolorov. Del Piero’s consolation arrives too late to affect the eventual outcome.
