Low scoring trends point to controlled contest
Cagliari have conceded just 0.4 goals a game this season and kept three clean sheets in five league outings. Juventus average 1.6 goals scored but have seen three or more total goals in only one of their five matches. Several key Juventus forwards are unavailable, which limits their ability to stretch the home defence. Head-to-head results show seven wins for Juventus yet only six of the last ten meetings passed 2.5 goals. Both teams arrive with recent wins but neither has shown much attacking volume on the road or at home. The game may unfold as a cautious midfield battle with few clear chances.
