Juventus vs Cremonese Prediction 12 January 2026
📢 The 20th round of Serie A will conclude with a match between Juventus and Cremonese at the Allianz Stadium. The "Old Lady" enters the game as the overwhelming favorite, with a clear disparity in class, form, and objectives speaking volumes. However, it would be unwise to underestimate the "Gray and Reds": in the first half of the season, Cremonese have already taken points from more prestigious opponents and demonstrated their ability to challenge even the giants, especially if those giants let their guard down.
Head-to-Head
📊 In recent head-to-head encounters between Juventus and Cremonese, the Turin side have dominated, winning all three matches. In their first-round clash, Juventus faced little trouble, confidently controlling the game to secure a 2-1 victory. However, the ending was tense after conceding a goal in the 83rd minute.
Head-to-head statistics Juventus - Cremonese
Juventus Turin Team Overview
⚪ It's hard not to be impressed by Juventus right now. The team is in fantastic form, having secured 8 victories in their last 10 matches. They wrapped up the first half of the season in fourth place, with 36 points, trailing just 6 points behind league leaders Inter. Juventus could have been even higher up the table had Luciano Spalletti taken charge a bit earlier.
⚫ In their last outing, the Turin side made light work of Sassuolo on the road, cruising to a 3-0 victory. The "Old Lady" dominated every statistical category, and the hosts practically handed goals to Juventus: an own goal by Tarik Muharemovic and a glaring mistake by Jay Idzes were welcome New Year gifts. It's important to consider the level of the opposition-this Sassuolo side has managed to take points off several top clubs and holds a respectable mid-table position. Juventus' performance deserves nothing less than an A-plus.

Cremonese Team Overview
⚪ Cremonese wrapped up the first half of the season sitting 13th in the standings with 22 points. This is a commendable achievement for a club that has just been promoted from Serie B, maintaining a nine-point cushion from the relegation zone. At one point during the season, the "Grigiorossi" even found themselves in the top half of the table. However, recent form has slightly tarnished their overall performance, as they have now gone five matches without a win.
🔴 In their last outing, Cremonese came agonizingly close to breaking this streak. Hosting Cagliari on home turf, they delivered a strong first half, heading into the break with a comfortable two-goal lead. Yet, after halftime, their game unraveled: the "Grigiorossi" lost momentum and failed to secure the desired result, conceding an equalizer in the 88th minute. The match ended in a 2-2 draw, which felt more like a defeat.

Latest news
Juventus Turin
📣 After a commanding 3-0 victory over Sassuolo, Luciano Spalletti spoke calmly: "The last two matches have been strong performances, but there's still room for improvement. Sometimes we're not tough enough in challenges, and we overcomplicate corner kicks instead of delivering them directly into the box. It's these small details that shape our mentality."
🚫 Juventus face the match with significant squad limitations. Daniele Rugani, Federico Gatti, and Dusan Vlahovic remain sidelined as they continue their recovery from injuries. Additionally, the participation of several players is in doubt: Chico Conceicao, Jonas Rucha, and Arkadiusz Milik, with final decisions on their availability to be made closer to the game.
Cremonese
📣 After a 2-2 draw with Cagliari, Davide Nicola spoke without hysteria or self-deception: "I'm not disappointed today-just a little upset. A win would have been the pinnacle. We played in true Cremonese style: a strong first half, proper attacking development, and the right attitude on the field... We're paying for certain episodes because we try to resolve them cleanly. Sometimes you need tough tackles and the ability to 'dirty' the ball's trajectory."
🚫 Cremonese have minimal squad issues. The only concern is Michele Collocolo, who is experiencing muscle discomfort, and his condition will be assessed right before the game.
⚽️ Goal Prediction
Despite Juventus' recent scoring form, their matches rarely turn into high-scoring affairs. In 15 of their last 16 Serie A encounters, no more than four goals have been scored. The only exception was a 3-1 victory over Udinese back in late October, before Luciano Spalletti took over as head coach. Considering Cremonese are likely to adopt a highly defensive strategy and aim to keep the game tight, betting on under 3.5 total goals seems the most logical option.
🚩 Corner Prediction
Cremonese are the worst team in Serie A when it comes to earning corners, averaging just 3.2 per match. Facing a formidable Juventus side away, it will be even more challenging for the "Grey-Reds" to approach the opposition's goal. Given the opponent's status and Cremonese's expected defensive approach, wagering on under 3.5 Cremonese corners appears to be a well-founded choice.
Editorial Prediction
Bookmakers are confident that Juventus will easily secure three points in the upcoming clash, and even Cremonese fans find it hard to disagree with this view. The teams are in completely different forms: the "Old Lady" is steamrolling through opponents, as demonstrated by their recent away victory against Sassuolo (3-0), where the Turin side faced no challenges whatsoever. In contrast, Cremonese are struggling, having failed to score in four of their last five matches and losing even to a floundering Fiorentina (0-1). Given these circumstances, the "Gray and Reds" are unlikely to pose a significant threat to the hosts, so we are backing a Juventus win with a -1.5 handicap and expect a final score of 2-0 on the board.
