CAG vs JUV Dream11: The reigning champions will take on Cagliari in Serie A. The home side is 17th in the league, just 2 points clear of the relegation zone, but they have also played 2 games more than Torino who are just below them. However, after a 3-game losing streak, Cagliari is unbeaten in their last 3 games, including 2 wins. Juventus too are on a 5-game unbeaten run after back-to-back losses against Napoli and Porto.

Pedro has 2 goals in his last 3 games for Cagliari and will look to continue that run against Juventus.
Differential Pick
Federico Chiesa – Chiesa has been excellent for Juventus this season and can play all positions up front. He currently plays on the right flank and has created 43 chances so far. Chiesa has succeeded in 42 attempted dribbles with a 55% success rate and has 13 goals (7 goals and 6 assists) contributions this season.

CAG vs JUV Dream 11 Teams

Midfielders – Marin, Pedro, Nainggolan, Bernardeschi, Chiesa (VC)
Forwards – Kulusevski, Ronaldo (C)
Likely Winner
Juventus will be the favourites to win the CAG vs JUV Today Match Prediction but this season has been unpredictable for them. This game should be an easy win for Juve though as they have scored 51 goals in 25 games while only conceding 21 whereas Cagliari has conceded 43 goals in 26 games. Radja Nainggolan’s last-minute goal ensured that Cagliari didn’t drop all points against Sampdoria and that should have them fired up for this fixture, although it won’t be easy to beat a side like Juventus.
