Cagliari - Juventus team news and expert analysis
The Sardinian club finished last spring in a high-for-them 14th place with 43 points. But they have surprised everyone at the start of the current campaign: yes, they have already been knocked out of the cup by their second opponent, Verona, but they have already recorded four Serie A victories, including a 1-0 win away at Udinese in the most recent round.
The Turin giants changed managers in 2025/2026 but still slipped to sixth place in the final standings. Spalletti kept his position, and his team have mostly been winning in the new campaign, including a crushing 5-0 victory over NEC in the Europa League. However, there was also a draw with Milan and even a 3-2 defeat to Sassuolo!
The Islanders score around one goal per game while conceding very little - just 0.4 per round. McKennie and his teammates average 1.6 goals scored and 0.8 conceded.
