Juventus vs Cagliari prediction, head-to-head and probable line-ups - 29.11.2025
One of the marquee clashes of Serie A’s 13th round is set for Saturday at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, where Juventus will host Cagliari. Let’s take a closer look at the goal potential in this encounter, factoring in both teams’ playing styles and recent statistics.
Match preview
The Old Lady has been through a mixed spell—on one hand, they are unbeaten in their last four matches; on the other, their attacking output has been underwhelming. In their recent home games, Juve have managed just four goals, even leaving the pitch goalless twice. As a result, the Bianconeri have slipped to seventh in the table and dropped out of the European qualification zone.
Nonetheless, defensive solidity remains a cornerstone for the hosts: over their last ten home matches, Juventus have conceded more than once only against Inter, and kept a clean sheet in six of those games. Against this backdrop, their 3-2 Champions League win over Bodo/Glimt stands out as a rare, high-scoring thriller.
Meanwhile, the Sardinians are still searching for their best form—Cagliari are winless in Serie A for eight consecutive rounds. However, their attacking improvement is worth noting: a 3-3 draw with Genoa last time out proved they have creative potential. The visitors currently sit 11th in the standings, three points clear of the relegation zone.
On the road, however, Cagliari tend to play it safe, rarely scoring and focusing on limiting their opponents’ chances. In six away fixtures this season, they’ve conceded only seven goals, but have managed to score more than once on just three occasions.
Probable line-ups
- Juventus: Di Gregorio, Cambiaso, Kelly, Kalulu, McKennie, Thuram, Locatelli, Koopmeiners, Kostic, Vlahovic, Yildiz
- Cagliari: Caprile, Zappa, Mina, Luperto, Deiola, Palestra, Prati, Folorunsho, Borrelli, Felici, Esposito
Match facts and head-to-head
- Juventus are unbeaten at home in Serie A for 10 consecutive matches.
- Cagliari have failed to win away in 14 of their last 16 games.
- In 9 of Juventus’ last 13 home matches, at least one team failed to score.
Prediction
Both teams are showing a cautious brand of football, prioritizing defensive reliability. Juventus are consistently keeping clean sheets in Turin, while Cagliari struggle to break down defenses on the road. Don’t expect a goal fest in this one.
