Crotone v Juventus
Italian Serie A
Date: Saturday, October 17, 2024
Start at 17pm in the UK
Venue: Stadio Ezio Scida, Crotone.
Defending Serie A champions Juventus will visit the Ezio Scida stadium on Saturday night to face elite newcomers from Crotone.
The hosts had a bad start to the season, as they lost all three games so far and had a terrible difference of –8 goals.
Unless there are some drastic changes they could get an express relegation back to Série B in 2024. The end result has to work a lot better and concede fewer goals.
One of the most recent news about Juventus is that Cristiano Ronaldo tested positive for covid-19 during the international break and will definitely miss this game.
There is no doubt who is the favorite in this Italian Serie A fixture and, unsurprisingly, the away win is currently odds of 1,44.
Crotone vs Juventus Head to Head
These two teams have met six times in the past and Crotone managed to avoid defeat only once, having suffered five defeats.
The most recent meeting in 2018 in Serie A ended without a 1-1 FT winner at this stadium.
It is interesting to mention that they met twice in the 2006/2007 season when Juventus were expelled from Serie B. La Vieja won both games with an aggregate goal difference of 8-0.
Crotone v Juventus Prediction
As stated above, all of Crotone's opponents were easily finding a way to score a goal until now. Genoa defeated them 4-1, AC Milan 2-0 and Sassuolo 4-1 in the third round.
Crotone gained direct promotion last season as runners-up in Serie B, but it is more than obvious that they lack a few more quality players to compete properly. It's very difficult to expect to win the first points of the season against the defending champions.
Andrea Pirlo must count on all players besides Cristiano Ronaldo for this match. Juventus have played two Serie A games so far, beating Sampdoria at home and drawing Roma in the capital 2-2. Ronaldo has been influential this season and scored both goals in that game.
We are sure that Juventus will easily face Crotone on Saturday. Winning away from HT/FT seems like the most obvious choice.
