Home » 17/12 Juventus vs Cagliari: Preview, Team News, + More Tips 

Juventus plays host to Cagliari in Coppa Italia game 16, where they will square off in  Tuesday’s showdown at Juventus Stadium.

Prediction 1X2

Juventus has had a mixed run of results recently. They’ve shown strong attacking form, particularly with a solid 2-0 win over Manchester City, but have also conceded goals in four of the last five matches, resulting in draws (2-2 against Venezia and Bologna, 1-1 at Lecce). Their defense has shown vulnerabilities, with the 0-0 draw against Aston Villa being the only match without goals conceded. Looking ahead, Juventus’ ability to score multiple goals is evident, but their defensive consistency remains a concern. As such, the upcoming match could see a similar pattern of both scoring and conceding. Juventus will likely be favored to win this fixture.

Cagliari has had a mixed run recently, with a solid 1-0 win over Verona but also struggling in other matches, including losses to Fiorentina and Atalanta. They have been involved in high-scoring games, such as the 2-2 draw with Genoa and a thrilling 3-3 draw with Milan. Given their inconsistent form, the upcoming match is likely to be competitive, with Cagliari needing to tighten their defense to avoid another loss or draw.
