JUV vs CRT Dream11 Team Prediction Tips Juventus vs Crotone Serie A Fixture 22 February

JUV vs CRT Dream11: Juventus welcome Crotone to the Allianz Stadium for a Monday night fixture in Serie A. The Bianconeri will look to bounce back from back-to-back losses to Napoli and Porto as they seek to catch up with the likes of Inter Milan and AC Milan. They are currently 11 points off of 1st place and 7 points off of 2nd place, although they have 2 games in hand. Crotone has not lost just 6 of their 22 games and one of those teams is Juventus. They held the reigning champions to a 1-1 draw earlier in the season but have failed to build on that. They have lost 8 of their last 10 games and are currently on a 4-game losing streak.

Bet365: Juventus – 1/8; Crotone – 18

Paddy Power: Juventus – 1/8; Crotone – 20

The JUV vs CRT Today Match Prediction should be a straightforward win for the reigning champions but their back-to-back losses should alert Crotone that an upset could be on the cards. The away side need to start getting results if they want to survive in the top-tier of Italian football. They have some good players and they upset Juventus during their last meeting but Andrea Pirlo’s men should see out the game.

Most Likely Result: Juventus win

JUV vs CRT Dream11, Captain & Differential Picks

Captain Options –

Cristiano Ronaldo – The Portuguese legend has drawn blanks in his last 3 games but a player of his calibre will not let that continue. With 16 goals and 3 assists in 18 appearances this season, Ronaldo will still be the one that the Crotone defence remain wary of.

Junior Messias – With 8 goal-contributions this season, Messias will try to exploit the gaps in the Juve defence to get his shot away. He has completed an impressive 61 dribbles and it will be difficult to get the ball off him.

Differential Picks –

Dejan Kulusevski – The youngster has been eyeing a starting spot which he has been getting of late. He will want to impress Pirlo in order to keep his spot, which will happen should he play well against Crotone.

Arkadiusz Reca – Playing on the left flank, Reca has been an impressive creative outlet for Crotone and has contributed to 4 goals. He bagged an assist in their last game and has created 21 goal-scoring chances so far, while succeeding in 27 dribbles.
