Cremonese vs Juventus Prediction for 2 November 2025 - Football

📢 Can Cremonese challenge Juventus in their Serie A Matchday 10 clash? The encounter is set to take place at the Giovanni Zini Stadium and promises to be one of the week's most intriguing fixtures. The teams sit close in the standings—eighth and seventh places—but the gap in class between them remains significant. Cremonese have pleasantly surprised with their consistency and discipline, while Juventus need points to climb back into the top four. All of this makes the match highly intriguing and unpredictable.

Head-to-Head

📊 The head-to-head history between Cremonese and Juventus in the 21st century features just two encounters, both taking place in the 2022/23 season when the "Gray and Reds" competed in Serie A. Juventus comfortably secured victories in both matches without conceding a goal: 1-0 away and 2-0 at home. Cremonese struggled to pose any significant challenge to their more experienced opponents during those fixtures.

Cremonese Team Overview

⚪ All three newcomers to Serie A have made a positive impression, with Cremonese standing out in particular. They sit eighth with 14 points after nine rounds. The team has suffered just one defeat—an away loss to the formidable Inter (1-4), highlighting their high competitiveness.

🔴 In the previous round, Cremonese confidently defeated Genoa on the road (2-0). The "Gray-Reds" displayed truly quality football, not needing to resort to their usual ultra-cautious defensive setup. Federico Bonazzoli was the hero of the match, scoring a brace. This victory should have a positive impact on the team's morale: despite avoiding defeats, they had not delighted their fans with a win for some time.

Juventus Turin Team Overview

⚪ Juventus have endured a challenging period, going through a stretch of eight matches without a win (5 draws and 3 losses). After yet another setback—a 0-1 away defeat to Lazio—the club's management had enough and dismissed Igor Tudor. The decision proved timely as the team finally secured their first victory in a month and a half.

⚫ Massimo Brambilla, who temporarily took over as head coach, managed to rejuvenate the players and lead them to a confident 3-1 win against Udinese. Yes, two of the goals came from penalties, but the "Old Lady" looked sharper than their opponents even without them. We last saw such dominant football from the Turin side back in late September in a 1-1 draw with Atalanta, when they had to come from behind.

📌 Luciano Spalletti will take charge as the new head coach for the next game.

Latest news

Cremonese

📣 Following their 2-0 victory over Genoa, marking their third clean sheet of the season, Cremonese head coach Davide Nicola stated, "This is a well-deserved win, but we remain humble and still hungry for more success."

🚫 Cremonese have several players whose participation is uncertain. Giuseppe Pezzella is recovering from a concussion, and medical staff have yet to clear him for the match.

Juventus Turin

📣 After Juventus secured their first win in eight matches with a 3-1 victory over Udinese, interim head coach Massimo Brambilla stated, "I've only spent two days with the team and tried to restore their confidence. The players themselves knew what needed to be done. This win is psychologically important."

🚫 Juventus still face several absences. Khéphren Thuram and Juan Cabal are sidelined due to shin and thigh injuries, respectively, with their return expected by mid-November. Carlo Pinsoglio is also injured and is likely to recover around the same time. Gleison Bremer is dealing with a meniscus issue, so he's not expected back until January. Arkadiusz Milik is still nursing a shin injury, and his return timeline remains unspecified.

⚽️ Goal Prediction

⚽️ Goal Prediction

The upcoming match is unlikely to thrill spectators with a flurry of goals. Cremonese, as usual, are expected to adopt a defensive strategy, aiming to grind out a draw against a stronger opponent. Juventus also face challenges: Luciano Spalletti's debut match as manager might be cautious, given the club's internal issues and the lack of clarity in their attacking game plan. Moreover, the statistics back a low-scoring affair: under 2.5 goals has been the outcome in 6 of Cremonese's last 7 Serie A matches.

🚩 Corner Prediction

Cremonese continue to play an extremely defensive style, rarely engaging in positional attacks and hardly applying pressure on opponents' goals. This is directly reflected in their corner statistics: the team averages just 2.8 corners per match – the lowest in Serie A. With this style of play, a surge in activity seems unlikely, so our bet is Cremonese under 3.5 corners.
