Juventus need a long winning streak 

After a disappointing draw away to Venezia, Juventus got back to winning ways with a fine victory over Bologna in the last round. That triumph extended The Old Lady’s undefeated spell to five games in Serie A, however, being 12 points behind leaders Inter is not what Juve fans expected from their team. Hence, the Bianconeri players and coach Allegri are keen to string together a run of victories to move closer to the frontrunners.

Certainly, injuries haven’t helped Allegri in his job this season. With Chiesa and Dybala both injured, Juve’s attacking power has taken a dip although Morata has stepped up in the last couple of games to score. However, the main strength of Allegri’s team is the defense who let in just two goals in the last seven games. 

Can Cagliari keep the door closed?

Coming into this game, Cagliari picked up four points from the last six matches. That has put the Islanders in a very dangerous position in the relegation zone. After four consecutive draws, the Cagliari defense broke down in their last two matches and lost 4-0 to both Inter and Udinese. Conceding eight goals in two games is not Serie A material.

As a result manager Walter Mazzarri will be hoping to have a solid defense in this game. Certainly, a point against Juventus will be considered a big achievement here, something the club managed to pull off back in 2015.

Another negative point is Cagliari’s away form as they have just three points from a possible 24. Moreover, the Islanders scored just once in their last five road trips.

Juventus vs Cagliari Prediction

Juventus will look to enter the winter break with a win over Cagliari, especially considering that Juve will play Napoli after the break and six points from these two matches could be crucial for a top-four finish.

Obviously, we won’t back a Juventus win since the odds are very low at 1.22. Instead, we will stick to the goals market where the bookies are favoring over 2.5 goals paying 1.60. However, Juve’s last seven matches saw the opposite side of the number of goals.

Surely the reason for the bookies’ prediction is Cagliari’s recent results as they suffered defensively. Nonetheless, the Bianconeri also suffered offensively in recent matches even against teams. In addition six of the last Juve games saw both teams not score. And the same happened in Cagliari’s three of their last four matches.

To summarize we will back a double chance and both teams to score combo from Vbet. And for our second prediction, we will back under 3.5 goals.
