Round 21: Cagliari vs. Juventus match preview Following Juventus’ wins over Bologna and Roma last month, we knew that the schedule would ease up a bit. Out goes competitors for the top four and race for a European position, in would come the provincial sides lined up one by one for the better part of the next four weeks. We’re in the final part of those four weeks of that favorable schedule now, with a massive three-game stretch domestically and in Europe on deck come the start of the new work week. But first, there’s that one last fixture before bigger ones arrive. That fixture against another one of Serie A’s relegation battlers, Cagliari, takes Juventus to Sardinia this Saturday night for what could be a matchup that continues this really nice run of form Luciano Spalletti’s squad is currently on. With Napoli dropping points yet again earlier in the week, this time in a scoreless draw against Parma, Juve are just one point behind the reigning champions who now no longer have their game in hand. That means if the trends of the two squads continue, Juventus could very well be ahead of Napoli and in third place when Antonio Conte’s squad make their way to Turin next weekend for a massive showdown at the Allianz Stadium. ............ You see that form and then the form that Juve are currently in the midst of and you think that another three points are in the bag as long as Spalletti’s squad keep on playing like they have been playing. And that is very much probably the case. But it’s also something that we probably thought when Juventus faced Lecce a couple of weeks ago … and we all know how that one turned out. So, as easy as it is to look ahead to what’s on the schedule come next week (and the next 10 days), count Spalletti as somebody who isn’t going to be falling into that trap. We know that because he said so during his pre-match press conference on Friday. ““For us right now, the only game we’re thinking about is the one away to Cagliari,“ the Tuscan tactician said. ”Of course, there are plans beyond this weekend’s game, but we’re only thinking about what’s next. … We’re focusing on one game at a time, studying each one with depth but without overfilling the players’ heads.” Sure, there is some coaching cliché talk there, but it’s also pretty true — especially when you consider the very real possibility that Juventus might actually end the weekend in third place. That is because Napoli are struggling with three straight draws to their name and just two wins in their last six games. The pressure is very much on them to try and turn things around in some sort of way before they have their own return to the Champions League and then make the trip to Turin next weekend. ............ This is Juventus’ chance to either jump over or pull even with Napoli this weekend … or just put themselves in a position to do the same thing next weekend. An improved run of form has allowed Juventus to be able to say that. Now it’s all about simply taking care of business one more time against a relegation battler before much bigger fixtures arrive. And how things are going right now, you probably have a pretty good feeling that can happen exactly as you hope. TEAM NEWS Kenan Yildiz missed training on Thursday due to a mild case of the flu. Better news to come out of Continassa on Thursday: Both Federico Gatti and Francisco Conceição returned to training with the group after missing time due to their respective injuries. Gatti has been out since early December due to meniscus surgery. ............ How did Spalletti describe Manuel Locatelli’s impact on this team right now? “He’s a perfect player for providing balance,” he said. Pretty good compliment, that. JUVENTUS PLAYER TO WATCH Kenan Yildiz has been battling some flu symptoms the last couple of days, so it’s not totally known just how close to 100% he will be this weekend. Chico Conceição is, again, just back from a minor-ish muscle injury and probably won’t be able to handle a heavy workload. Edon Zhegrova is still on a minutes limit as he has remained an option off the bench and just about only that. So it only makes sense to talk about the one advanced player that is probably at full-steam-ahead mode at the moment. Are we in the midst of Fabio Miretti’s best run of form since he broke into the senior squad at Juventus as a teenager a few years ago? Maybe! He is certainly playing quite well during his first extended period of playing time since returning from his loan spell at Genoa over the summer. ............ No matter where you fall in the discourse, Miretti has been a somewhat surprising contributor in recent weeks simply because we weren’t totally sure where he would fit into Spalletti’s plans. Was he going to play in a pivot? Would he play further up the field? Could he handle things if he did play further up the field and be a source of creativity as Juventus’ other forwards/wingers usually are? ............ Say whatever the heck you want about the level of opposition Juventus have played against in the last couple of weeks, but Miretti being a legitimate contributor to wins both in terms of scoring goals and creating scoring chances for his teammates was something we might not have expected in such a thrust into the forefront kind of way. Spalletti clearly rates Miretti, who at 22 just looks much more comfortable on the field compared to the days before he went on loan to Genoa for the 2024-25 season. This version of Miretti, one that Juve could really use when it comes to production going forward over the next few weeks with so many big games on the schedule, is starting to look like the player who many of us hoped he could develop into when he was still a teenager. ............ MATCH INFO When: Saturday, Jan. 17, 2026. Where: Unipol Domus, Cagliari, Italy.

Cagliari vs Juventus: Preview and Prediction Fabio Pisacane has a big task on his hands about keeping Cagliari afloat in Serie A for a third consecutive year as he prepares for the game against Juventus this weekend. Ahead of their big match at home against an in-form side, there is plenty of work ahead for the Serie A strugglers before they can breathe a sigh of relief. ............ Meanwhile, Luciano Spalletti’s arrival and the subsequent revival of Juventus have somewhat gone under the radar. The last time the Bianconeri were out on the pitch, they recorded their biggest top-flight win since 2018 when they thrashed Cremonese with a 5-0 scoreline. It was a game that showed that Juventus were truly rejuvenated under Spalletti, who has brought about a knack to score regularly as well as solidify their defence. One of the key aspects of the backline conceding less and keeping five clean sheets in seven games across all competitions is the return of key man Gleison Bremer, who opened the scoring against Cremonese last time out. Now, in the title race, Juventus are still seen as outsiders, and remain seven points behind leaders Inter Milan, having played 20 games so far. The topsy-turvy nature of Serie A does offer hope, and Spalletti would want his Juventus side to maintain consistency, especially when many of their top rivals drop points every now and then. Team News & Tactics Cagliari ............ Probable Lineup (3-5-2): Caprile; Luperto, Obert, Rodriguez; Palestra, Gastano, Prati, Adopo, Zappa; Esposito, Kilicsoy Juventus The big concern over at Juventus ahead of the game against Cagliari is the fitness of star man Kenan Yildiz, with the Turkish international and top scorer missing the midweek clash with flu-like symptoms. There is hope he could make the trip down south, but Luciano Spalletti will keep other options on standby. Should Yildiz fail to recover, then Francisco Conceicao will be in frame to start; however, the in-demand Turkish attacking sensation is still the favourite to recover and return this weekend. Federico Gatti is reportedly close to returning to action, but the injured duo of Dusan Vlahovic and Daniele Rugani are set to miss out. The returning defender will be a boost for Juventus against Cagliari, but he is unlikely to be in the frame to start games at the moment. Another positive from Juventus’s recent good spell is the return to form for Jonathan David, with the misfiring striker scoring two goals in as many previous games. The Canadian could be preferred to Lois Openda at the moment, with the Belgian likely to assume a bench role. Probable Lineup (3-4-2-1): Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Bremer, Kelly; McKennie, Locatelli, Thuram, Cambiaso; Miretti, Yildiz; David Key Stats Juventus have won 15 of their last 18 matches against Cagliari in all competitions. Juventus have scored at least two goals in eight of their last ten matches against Cagliari in all competitions. Cagliari are winless in their last nine games against Juventus. Cagliari have recorded only two wins on home soil all season. Player to Watch Gleison Bremer Bremer’s timely return has coincided with Juventus returning to top form and conceding fewer goals of late. The Brazilian has been a key figure for the team since he arrived from Torino a few seasons ago, and he will be instrumental as the Bianconeri are hopeful of mounting a title challenge of their own. ............ Prediction Cagliari 0-2 Juventus Cagliari could continue their dreadful form against Juventus heading into Saturday, and they will come into this clash as underdogs. The Serie A strugglers are under severe pressure to deliver results to keep the gap between themselves and the relegation zone at a relevant level, but things are not looking good. Meanwhile, Juventus are probably one of the most in-form sides in Serie A at the moment, and they could assert their dominance away at Cagliari. The Bianconeri are the overwhelming favourites for the win, and they might keep a clean sheet at the end of it. .

Ora ha capito che Fiorentina, Juventus, calcio, affari e soldi appartengono solo a questa terra. Tante polemiche per niente. Sti ppagliacciate ‘e ffanno sul’e vive: nuje simme serje… appartenimmo a morte!

Spalletti insists Juventus’ full focus is on the Cagliari match Juventus faces a demanding period as the season approaches its decisive phase, with the club competing in three competitions between now and the end of the campaign. Champions League football is set to return next week, adding further intensity to an already challenging schedule. While there is understandable excitement among supporters about what lies ahead, the immediate focus remains firmly on domestic duties, starting with the upcoming league fixture against Cagliari. With so many matches compressed into a short timeframe, there is a natural temptation to look ahead and plan for future challenges. Fans may already be considering potential outcomes in Europe and beyond, but within the squad the emphasis must remain on the present. Taking each match as it comes is seen as essential to maintaining performance levels and avoiding costly distractions. ............ Luciano Spalletti, who has spent many years at the highest level of the game, understands the risks of losing focus. ............ Spalletti explained his approach in clear terms, saying, “Zooming in means focusing on one thing at a time and delving deeper into the issues surrounding that issue. Then Zooming out is a different kind of thinking, looking at the schedule and what the future holds. But right now, we’re only focusing on the match against Cagliari. For us, that’s the Champions League match.” ............ . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/spalletti-insists-juventus-full-focus-is-on-the-cagliari-match/

Spalletti drops Chiesa hint as Juventus want Yildiz respite: ‘Looking for a replacement’ Luciano Spalletti has admitted that Juventus are ‘looking for a replacement’ in Kenan Yildiz’s area of the pitch, as the Bianconeri head coach wants to ‘protect’ the club’s most precious talent. ............ Speaking at his pre-match press conference on Friday, Juventus head coach Spalletti admitted that there are still areas that the club wish to address during the January transfer window. Among the priorities for Spalletti is somebody to compete and rotate with Yildiz, whom the head coach feels has been ‘undroppable’ so far. “As far as I’m concerned, the January window is intended to introduce different players and profiles that you don’t have in your current squad. Ever since I’ve got here we’ve been looking at the market because I’ve been getting to know the characteristics of my players,” Spalletti told the press on Friday. “I am convinced that we can still grow and that there are still a few things we might be missing,” he added. ............ When asked if Yildiz will be able to play against Cagliari on Saturday after missing training on Thursday through illness, Spalletti said: “We’re looking for a replacement in that area. Usually, a top player is a top player because they’re undroppable, or because they play like a champion. He does both. “He’s an important player for us and we want to try to protect him, but he has the physique and engine and we want to have him play as many games as possible because he gives us so many different solutions. “For tomorrow, Conceicao can’t play the whole game, and therefore we could manage Yildiz’s minutes once the game has started. My assistant Domenichini helps me decide, but Yildiz has only missed one training session due to a sore throat, today he was at full speed.” In terms of the profile that Spalletti mentioned during his press conference, a player in a similar role to Yildiz, Chiesa certainly fits the bill. They both play in similar positions, either as a winger, advanced midfielder or second striker, and are also similar in terms of their style of play and physical attributes. ............ .

Crystal Palace makes a decision on selling Juventus target this month Juventus are assessing their options in attack ahead of the end of the season, with attention turning towards potential reinforcements who could fit into their long term plans. The club are preparing for a significant change in their forward line and is carefully considering targets who can adapt quickly to their environment while offering reliability and experience. ............ Jean-Philippe Mateta has emerged as a player of interest, with the move reportedly receiving approval from Luciano Spalletti. Bringing in the Crystal Palace forward during the current window would allow him to spend the next six months adjusting to Juventus’ tactical expectations and overall playing style. This period of adaptation is viewed internally as a valuable opportunity, particularly as the club aims to avoid disruption once the season concludes. ............ Mateta is regarded as an experienced striker who has earned his place in the France national team squad, qualities that suggest he could perform effectively in Serie A. However, Crystal Palace are aware of the growing interest in him and other key figures within its squad. Despite the risk of losing him, Palace are reluctant to sanction a move during the current transfer window. The club are keen to retain their strongest players for the remainder of the season, with Mateta considered one of those they are determined to keep. The report indicates that Palace would prefer to postpone any potential sale until the summer, allowing them to maintain stability and competitiveness in the short term. ............ .
