Juventus
Despite suffering an away defeat in the previous round, when Luciano Spalletti’s side lost to Inter (2:3), Juventus have still held on to fifth place in the Serie A standings, although they still have work to do in the battle for a Champions League spot.

Their goals scored and conceded stands at 39:18, which points to a fairly balanced defensive setup and decent attacking output.

Juventus vs Como 1907: Match Prediction
Although Juventus are considered the favourites on paper, it is difficult to call the upcoming match a straightforward one. It is important to underline that the last time the Turin side lost at home was against Atalanta in Matchday 28 of the 2024/25 season. A tough run lies ahead: after the meeting with Como 1907, the team will face the second leg against Galatasaray, and there are still plenty of difficult fixtures scheduled for the remainder of the season. At the moment, Spalletti’s men find themselves in a tricky situation. On the one hand, there is a serious battle to come in the return leg against the Turkish club. On the other, they need results in the league, where a European place is not yet guaranteed, so the hosts will be fully focused for this next fixture as well.
Como 1907 have certainly been no easy opponent this season. Under Cesc Fabregas, the team have transformed from a mid-table side into one capable of competing with the top clubs in Italian football. However, away from home, the team have produced average results, generally beating only teams from the bottom half of the standings. Particularly impressive has been the club’s defensive work in the league: after 25 rounds, they have conceded only 19 goals, ranking among the top three by that metric.
Prediction: Juventus double chance + Under 3.5 goals
* For each team, the starting XI listed is from their previous match in this competition.
