Juventus vs Cremonese Predictions and Best Bets
Juventus vs Cremonese — BetMGM Market Snapshot
Swipe through key markets with illustrative probabilities and sample BetMGM odds based on our match analysis.
Juventus’ home fortress and Cremonese’s away struggles make the hosts massive favorites in the 1X2 market.
Pricing points to a dominant Juventus clean sheet as the most probable outcome in Turin.
The market leans toward a Juventus multi-goal performance while doubting Cremonese’s scoring chances.
- Home Fortress: Juventus are unbeaten in their last 13 Serie A home matches, and they’ve also won their last three league meetings with Cremonese. That’s a serious platform to build from.
- Two Speeds, Two Styles: Juventus average 16.1 shots per game in Serie A with 57.2% possession, while Cremonese sit at 8.5 shots per game and 45.3% possession — a gap that screams territory and control.
- Away-Day Silence: Cremonese haven’t scored in their last three away Serie A games, and their recent away fixtures have stayed tight, with under 2.5 goals in each — they’ll need precision, not just resistance.
Attacking Volume: Shots per Match
Juventus’ high-volume approach suggests significant territorial dominance compared to Cremonese’s more conservative output.
The hosts look to keep opposition defenses under constant pressure with a high volume of chances created.
Operating largely in their own half, the visitors struggle to generate offensive frequency.
Ball Control: Possession Percentage
A snapshot of which side dictates the rhythm of the game via ball retention.
Juve’s tactical setup is built around owning the ball and playing in the opposition half.
The visitors typically rely on long balls and direct play rather than sustained build-up.
Juventus come into Monday night with momentum, swagger, and a clear target: keep their Serie A revival roaring and stay right on the edge of the title conversation. At Allianz Stadium, Luciano Spalletti’s side look like a team that’s remembered how to win ugly and win well — just ask Sassuolo, brushed aside 3-0 after a frustrating 1-1 with Lecce.
Cremonese, led by Davide Nicola, arrive as a dangerous sort of awkward opponent: mid-table, hard to fully read, and capable of making games stick. But they also let points slip recently — that 2-2 with Cagliari after leading 2-0 will linger. In Turin, that kind of wobble can turn into a long night.

Cremonese absences

Juventus probable starting XI
Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Bremer, Koopmeiners; McKennie, Locatelli, Thuram, Cambiaso; Miretti, Kenan Yildiz; Jonathan David
Cremonese probable starting XI
Audero; Terracciano, Baschirotto, Bianchetti; Zerbin, Payero, Grassi, Vandeputte, Pezzella; Bonazzoli, Jamie Vardy
What it means
Juventus’ forward options are clearly squeezed with Vlahović and Milik out — which only sharpens the spotlight on Jonathan David, fresh off ending a league goal drought with a “cathartic” strike at Sassuolo. For Cremonese, the likely 3-5-2 shape looks built to absorb pressure, but if their wing-backs get pinned, they risk defending their own box for long stretches.
The Tale of the Tape
| Metric (Serie A) | Juventus | Cremonese |
|---|---|---|
| League position | 5th | 13th |
| Points | 36 | 22 |
| Goals scored | 27 | 20 |
| Shots per game | 16.1 | 8.5 |
| Possession | 57.2% | 45.3% |
| Pass accuracy | 86.6% | 77.8% |
| Aerials won | 13.4 | 15.1 |
Juventus’ numbers paint a side that wants to own the ball and the pitch — high shot volume, strong pass completion, and a clear preference for playing in the opposition half. Cremonese, by contrast, look more like a team built for survival and moments: lower possession, lower shot output, but strong enough in the air to compete when games get scruffy.

Tactical Battle: How the Match Plays Out
Juventus: squeeze the pitch, hit the wings, keep it moving
Spalletti’s Juventus lean into short passes, look to control the game in the opposition’s half, and they’re flagged as strong on counter attacks and attacking down the wings. That’s not a contradiction — it’s a sign of a team comfortable in multiple gears. If Juve win it back high, they can go straight for the throat. If not, they can still circulate, probe, and wait for the crack.
Expect Juventus to try and overload the wide channels, especially with their stated tendency to attack down the left. With Andrea Cambiaso and Weston McKennie in the mix, the wide areas can become a conveyor belt of pressure: overlaps, second balls, and recycled attacks. The key is speed of decision-making around the box — Cremonese’s shape will try to clog the middle and force shots from distance.
Cremonese: width, long balls, and a fight for territory
Nicola’s side are described as playing with width, using long balls, and operating largely in their own half. That points to a clear plan: get out quickly, stretch the pitch, and try to turn Juventus around rather than wrestle them centrally.
The problem? Cremonese are also weak at keeping possession, and Juventus are strong at stealing the ball. That’s a dangerous cocktail if Cremonese start coughing it up in midfield: wave after wave, growing noise, shrinking space. And with Cremonese listed as weak defending attacks down the wings — plus very weak at stopping opponents creating chances — Juventus’ preferred routes look tailor-made for this matchup.
The decisive duel: Juventus circulation vs Cremonese concentration
This game could be defined by patience. Juventus average 504.62 passes per game with 56% ball possession, while Cremonese sit at 375.9 passes and 46% possession. If that pattern holds, Cremonese will need their defensive line and midfield screen to stay disciplined for long spells — and they’ll need Emil Audero (rating 7.12, with 4 man-of-the-match awards listed) to keep producing big moments.
At the other end, Cremonese do have threats: Federico Bonazzoli and Jamie Vardy both have 5 league goals, and Jari Vandeputte has 4 assists. But there’s an immediate warning sign: Cremonese haven’t scored in their last three away Serie A games. If they’re going to change that, it probably comes from a set-piece, a turnover, or one ruthless transition — not a long spell of build-up play.
Key Moments to Watch
- First punch vs first wobble: Juventus went ahead within 16 minutes at Sassuolo and then controlled the game. If they start fast again, Cremonese’s plan gets stress-tested early.
- Wide areas under pressure: Cremonese are weak defending attacks down the wings, and Juventus are strong attacking down the wings — that clash could decide where the match is played.
- Discipline in dangerous zones: Cremonese are weak at avoiding fouls in dangerous areas, and Juventus like to create chances — cheap set pieces could become free shots at pressure moments.
- Aerial battles and second balls: Cremonese average 15.1 aerials won per game to Juventus’ 13.4. If they can turn clearances into territory, they can at least breathe.
What could go wrong?
Juventus’ biggest self-inflicted risk is listed bluntly: avoiding individual errors is a “very weak” area. If they get casual in possession while pushing bodies forward, Cremonese’s direct style and long balls can suddenly look a lot more dangerous — especially if Vardy or Bonazzoli get a sniff in transition.

Juventus to Win to Nil
Juventus enter this fixture with overwhelming statistical advantages and a clear tactical path to victory. Luciano Spalletti has restored a sense of control at the Allianz Stadium, evidenced by a 13-match unbeaten home run in Serie A. The primary driver for this bet is the massive gulf in offensive efficiency and territorial dominance between the two sides.
Juventus average 16.1 shots per game and maintain nearly 60% possession, while Cremonese struggle to create, managing just 8.5 shots per match. More importantly, Cremonese arrive in Turin having failed to score in their last three away league outings. This lack of “away-day” punch makes it difficult to see them breaching a Juventus backline that thrives on controlling the tempo and squeezing the pitch.
Tactically, Juventus focus their attacks down the wings, an area where Cremonese are explicitly weak at defending. With creative forces like Andrea Cambiaso and Kenan Yildiz stretching the play, Cremonese will likely be pinned in their own half for long stretches. Given that Cremonese are also prone to conceding fouls in dangerous areas and struggle to stop opponents from creating chances, the pressure on their goal will be relentless.
While Juventus are missing key attackers like Vlahović and Milik, Jonathan David has found his rhythm, scoring a “cathartic” goal in his last outing. His ability to lead the line, combined with Juve’s ability to win ugly or dominate possession, points toward a controlled victory where the visitors rarely threaten the goal.
What could go wrong? The primary risk lies in Juventus’ tendency for individual errors, which is an area where they are very weak. If they become complacent in possession while committing bodies forward, a direct long ball to Jamie Vardy or Federico Bonazzoli could result in a goal against the run of play.
Correct Score Lean
Juventus 2-0 Cremonese
This scoreline reflects the statistical trends of both teams. Juventus have kept things tight at home, and Cremonese’s recent away fixtures have consistently stayed under 2.5 goals. A 2-0 result aligns with Juve’s average of 1.35 goals scored per game and their superior shot volume. Given Cremonese’s inability to find the net on their travels recently, a comfortable two-goal cushion for the hosts is the most logical outcome of a dominant but controlled performance.
