Cagliari - WWLDWD
Gaetano Oristanio (unknown injury), Andrea Petagna (Calf injury), Marco Mancosu (Knee surgery) and Leonardo Pavoletti (Ankle sprain) will not be taking part for Cagliari boss Claudio Ranieri.
It seems likely that Casteddu / Rossoblu look set to kick off with a 3-5-2 system for this one, beginning the first half with Simone Scuffet, Yerry Mina, Alberto Dossena, Adam Obert, Nahitan Nandez, Antoine Makoumbou, Alessandro Deiola, Ibrahim Sulemana, Tommaso Augello, Zito Luvumbo and Eldor Shomurodov.
Cagliari enter this game coming off the back of a 2-2 Serie A drawn result versus Inter Milan.
In that game, Cagliari managed 37% possession and 10 attempts at goal with 6 on target. For Cagliari, the goals were scored by Eldor Shomurodov (64') and Nicolas Viola (83'). At the other end, Inter Milan got 16 shots at goal with 7 of them on target. Marcus Thuram (12') and Hakan Çalhanoğlu (74') scored for Inter Milan.
It has been all too rare in recent games where Cagliari haven’t conceded. In fact, Cagliari have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 matches, giving up 7 goals during that time.
Their prior results show that Cagliari: are winless against Juventus in their previous 5 league matches, are unbeaten in their last 4 home league matches.
Juventus - DDLWWD
Owing to an otherwise healthy group of players, there’s just the one fitness worry for the Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri to contend with. Moise Kean (Knee problems) misses out for this game.
There’s a good chance that Juve seem likely to begin the game with a 3-5-2 formation using Mattia Perin, Federico Gatti, Gleison Bremer, Danilo, Andrea Cambiaso, Weston McKennie, Manuel Locatelli, Adrien Rabiot, Filip Kostic, Dusan Vlahovic and Federico Chiesa.
In their previous fixture, Juventus drew 0-0 in the Serie A match with Torino.
In that game, Juventus managed 52% possession and 8 attempts at goal with 3 of them on target. Torino had 13 attempts at goal with 2 on target.
In 5 of the previous six clashes involving Juventus, a relatively low number of goals have been hit between them and opposing sides. The overall average goals scored per game during that period comes out as a paltry 1.33, with the average goals for Juve being 0.83. That sort of trend might not be carried forward here, of course.
Leading up to this clash, Juventus: have not been beaten by Cagliari when they've played them away from home in the last 2 league matches, are without a win away from home in their last 5 league games.
Cagliari possible starting lineup:
Scuffet; Zappa, Mina, Dossena; Nandez, Deiola, Makoumbou, Suleman, Augello; Luvumbo, Lapadula
Juventus possible starting lineup:
Perin; Gatti, Bremer, Danilo; Cambiasso, McKennie, Locatelli, Rabiot, Kostic; Vlahovic, Chiesa

Prediction: Cagliari 1-1 Juventus

The spoils could be shared in gameweek 33, with the Rossoblu taking that as a point gained, even if it extends their winless run to 16 against a side starting the matchday in the top three places.
