Igor Tudor’s Lazio reign started with a bang as they got the better of a lacklustre Juventus side, with Adam Marusic scoring the only goal of the game.
Lazio
Mandas: A spectator for much of the opening half, but did well when forced into a save on Chiesa. 6.0/10
Gila: A very decent performance from the full-back. 6.0/10
Romagnoli: Did really well to deny Kean and Chiesa at the start of the second-half. 6.0/10
Casale: Seldom troubled in the opening half, pushed out of defence at times to help create. 6.0/10
Anderson: Made some decent runs on the break to try and create from the flanks 6.0/10
Kamada: Had a long range effort that was over the post. 6.0/10
Cataldi: Saw plenty of the ball and crafted a few half chances. 5.5/10
Marusic: Put in a hard working performance, had a huge chance deflected just wide of the far post. got a deserved winner with the last chance of the game. 7.0/10
Pedro: 5.5/10
Zaccagni: 5.5/10
Castellanos: Had a glorious chance to open the scoring, but put his effort just wide of the far post. Did the same thing not too long after. 6.0/10
Substitutions:
Immobile: 5.5/10
Isaksen: 5.5/10
Vecino: N/A
Guendouzi: Made an immediate impact and set up with the winning goal with a great cross. 6.5/10

Juventus
Szczesny: Solid in the early exchanges but had one very shaky moment when Lazio were almost in on goal. 6.0/10
Rugani: A solid shift. 6.0/10
Bremer: Had a good chance to open the scoring but put his effort just wide. 5.0/10
Danilo: Up against it for large periods of the match. 5.5/10
De Sciglio: Looked very rusty to begin with and only managed to play the first half. 4.5/10
Miretti: Largely anonymous for the first half and was duly subbed off at half-time. 4.5/10
Locatelli: Not able to get a foothold in the midfield and seemed constantly on the backfoot. Better in the second half. 5.5/10
Rabiot: Like Miretti, he barely touched the ball for the first ’45. Seemed MIA for large spells of the game. 5.0/10
Cambiaso: Quiet start, but he had a good chance on the 50′ mark. 5.5/10
Chiesa: A very quiet first half until he forced a save from Mandas in the 41′ minute. 5.5/10
Kean: Put in a decent shift but had very very little to work with. 5.0/10
Substitutions:
Iling-Jr: Made an immediate impact out wide, firing in some decent crosses. 5.0/10
