The battle for the top 4 spot is condensing, just 8 points separate 3rd from 7th. Either side wins here will go a long way to qualification. Which side will take the spoils?
Juventus v Como – Allianz Stadium 15:00 CET
Team News:
Juventus will miss Bremer and Kalalu injured, replacement Holm is also unavailable. Milik and Vlahovic are still out while another striker David is a doubt.
Como have no injury or suspension issues.
Formations:
3-4-2-1 for Juventus who are in some trouble. A 5-2 demolition in Turkey leaves them on the cusp of elimination from that competition.
4-3-2-1 for Como for most of the season. They are in poor form now so Fabregas may tinker somewhat.
Statistics:
Referee: Daniele Doveri (Average cards 4.38 Yellow 0.22 Red)
Match Preview:
Juventus hold 5th place on 46 points and remain unbeaten at home, with seven wins and five draws. However, their recent form is troubling: a heavy five-goal defeat to Galatasaray, an early Coppa Italia exit, and no victories in their last two Serie A matches.
Como sit one place and four points behind in 6th, with a respectable five wins from twelve away games. Their form mirrors Juventus’ struggles, as they are winless in their last four outings. They did edge past Napoli on penalties in the Coppa Italia, but overall, their momentum has dipped.
Betting Preview:
This is a crucial clash in Turin, with several teams still battling for a top‑four place, making every slip costly. Juventus also have a demanding midweek fixture as they attempt to overturn a three‑goal deficit against Galatasaray in the UCL, leaving them in a difficult situation. Given their current struggles, backing the draw or Como looks the smarter play here.
