Serie A: Records Juventus can script in the 2020-21 season
Serie A 2019-20 winners Juventus are set to start a new chapter under manager Andrea Pirlo, who replaced Maurizio Sarri as the club's manager. Juventus had a disappointing campaign post resumption in June and that's something they will want to address. The Serie A season starts on Saturday as Juventus are set to face Sampdoria. Here are the records Juve can break in 2020-21.
Ronaldo could script these records in the Serie A

Juventus can claim 10th successive Serie A honor
Juventus have won 36 Serie A honors (highest) and can extend the tally to 37. Notably, the club has won nine successive Serie A honors from 2011-12 to 2019-20. They can smash a new record of 10 successive Italian league titles. Juventus have won 1,623 games in the Serie A (highest) and need 27 victories to register a tally of 1,650.
Paulo Dybala can script this record

Bonucci and Costa could achieve these milestones
