C-Ron celebrates with his new team-mates. I don’t think they expected such a difficult game at Chievo.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s Serie A career begins with the same result that started his La Liga career – a 3-2 win (against Deportivo La Coruna in 2009).

Although he did score in that game. Juventus win at the Verona’s Bentegodi stadium.but don’t need Cristiano Ronaldo to chip in with a debut goal.

The Old Lady spent € 112 million to sign CR7 in the summer transfer window and today the Portuguese star starts from the 1^st minute with Paulo Dybala and Douglas Costa.

Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri has won 13 of his last 15 top-flight games as a manager against Chievo (D2).

Juventus’ last seven league goals have come in the second half of games, while 10 of Chievo’s last 11 goals have come in the same period.

Juventus striker Cristiano Ronaldo scored in each of his last 10 league appearances for Real Madrid, netting 18 goals in total.

During his spell at Real Madrid, Cristiano Ronaldo had scored six goals on his league debut of the season, only two of which in the last six seasons on his first La Liga appearance (one in 2014/15 and one in 2016/17).
