When’s the last time you can remember Juventus going three games without a win at the start of a season?
It’s the sort of thing that just never happens. Or at least it didn’t until now.
After back-to-back defeats to open the campaign for the first time in their history, the last thing Juve will have wanted is to come up against high-flying, backheeling Chievo.
And true to form, the Flying Donkeys went ahead early through Perparim Hetemaj.

Paulo Dybala rescued a point with a late penalty – the Argentine is the only player to score a league goal for the Bianconeri this season – but last season’s Champions League finalists remain in the lower reaches of the Serie A table.
Hardly the ideal time for them to be facing a Manchester City team with five wins from five so far this season, but that’s just the way the Champions League cookie crumbles.
