Juventus vs Cagliari Prediction 30 November 2025

📢 What can we expect from the clash between Juventus and Cagliari at the Allianz Stadium as part of Serie A's 13th round? Juventus clearly outclass their opponents, yet despite the difference in team levels, this encounter isn't straightforward. Yes, Cagliari haven't tasted victory for two months, but Juventus have also been prone to dropping points this season, even in matches where they should secure a comfortable win. Can the hosts avoid another slip-up?

Head-to-Head

📊 The head-to-head history between Juventus and Cagliari includes 36 matches in recent years. The Turin side clearly holds the advantage with 26 victories, 7 draws, and only 3 losses. Last season, the teams clashed three times: twice in Serie A and once in the Coppa Italia. In the league, Juventus faced some challenges—drawing 1-1 at home and securing a narrow 1-0 win away. However, in the cup match, the Turin giants left no room for doubt, thrashing Cagliari 4-0.

Juventus Turin Team Overview

⚪ Juventus are gradually finding their form after Igor Tudor's departure as head coach, going six matches unbeaten. While three of these games ended in draws, the "Old Lady" looked more convincing than their opponents and could have secured maximum points. In their most recent outing, Juventus claimed a 3-2 away victory over a resilient Bodø/Glimt in the Champions League, registering 16 shots on target—a clear indicator that their attacking line is regaining its rhythm.

⚫ However, the league standings paint a less optimistic picture—Juventus have fallen behind the leaders. They currently sit in 7th place with 20 points. Although they are just four points away from the top four, reclaiming a spot there requires more than just winning their own matches. They must also rely on slip-ups from direct competitors, who are currently performing with remarkable consistency and rarely dropping points.

Cagliari Calcio Team Overview

🔴 Cagliari have gone two months without delivering a victory for their fans. Their last win came on September 23, when they confidently dispatched Frosinone in the Coppa Italia with a 4-1 scoreline. Against higher-caliber opponents, the "Islanders" struggle to pose any threat in attack — evidenced by their 0-2 defeats to Inter, Bologna, and Lazio. Their league standing is also concerning: 14th place, with 11 points, and just a three-point cushion from the relegation zone.

🔵 In the last round, Cagliari played a highly unpredictable match against Genoa (3-3), who are currently in the relegation zone. Cagliari had to come from behind twice, and throughout the game, it was the visitors who looked more dangerous in front of goal. The true savior was Gennaro Borrelli — the forward scored a brace, despite having netted only once in ten Serie A appearances this season.

Latest news

Juventus Turin

📣 Juventus head coach Luciano Spalletti, following their away victory over Bodo/Glimt (3-2), highlighted the dynamic play of his team: "This is a very important win for us. The key was our bold play across the pitch, sharply changing the pace and direction of attacks." The coach also emphasized the psychological pressure the team has been dealing with and praised the players for their character: "The team feels the pressure and the 'cloud' hanging over us due to all the talk. We could have avoided conceding the second goal, but the guys deserved this victory."

🚫 Juventus still have several players sidelined with injuries. Gleison Bremer is out until early January due to a meniscus injury. Carlo Pinsoglio (leg injury) and Daniele Rugani (muscle injury) are expected to recover by early December. Arkadiusz Milik continues to recover from a shin injury, and it's unclear when he will return to the field. Federico Gatti's participation is also in doubt as he experiences muscle discomfort.

Cagliari Calcio

📣 Cagliari head coach Fabio Pisacane, after the thrilling 3-3 draw with Genoa, emphasized the unacceptability of individual defensive lapses: "We can't gift the opponent two goals like that—hats off, it's my fault. A team at our level shouldn't lose such duels." However, he also highlighted some positives: "There are good aspects too; I'm very pleased with Borrelli's brace and Esposito's goal. We just need to maintain our focus."

🚫 Cagliari are also dealing with several squad issues. Andrea Belotti is sidelined until early April 2026 due to a cruciate ligament injury. Luca Mazzitelli is in recovery from a muscle injury and won't return to the pitch before early December. There are also doubts over Joao Pedro's participation, as the forward continues his recovery from a knee injury.

⚽️ Goal Prediction

⚽️ Goal Prediction

Cagliari have been struggling offensively, creating few chances and lacking in scoring efficiency. Their goal tally saw a slight improvement only in their recent match against Genoa (3-3), where nearly every shot found the back of the net. However, overall, the "Islanders" face significant challenges transitioning from defense to attack. Juventus, on the other hand, are much more confident on their home turf, playing with organization and reliability in defense, rarely allowing opponents to create dangerous opportunities. Therefore, betting on Cagliari not to score seems well-founded.

🚩 Corner Prediction

As previously mentioned, Cagliari rarely reach the opponent's penalty area, which results in them earning few corners. The team averages only 3.2 corners per match, with only Parma (3.1) and Cremonese (2.9) posting worse numbers. Juventus, being significantly superior in class, are likely to control the game throughout, seldom allowing the visitors to advance into their half. In such conditions, betting on Cagliari under 3.5 corners appears logical.
