Crotone vs Juventus Predictions

• Crotone have lost their first three Serie A matches, conceding ten goals in total.
• However, I Pitagorici have managed to score in two of those outings.
• Juventus have kept just one clean sheet in their last 14 away league games.

Juventus were handed a 3-0 victory by default on Matchday Three after opponents Napoli failed to turn up in Turin, and one could be forgiven for assuming that their fixture against Crotone this Saturday will be another walkover. 

The newly promoted hosts have looked out of their depth since returning to Serie A and are rock-bottom of the early table after being easily brushed aside by Genoa (4-1), Milan (0-2) and Sassuolo (4-1).

Whilst it’s clearly unrealistic to believe that Giovanni Stroppa’s side can get anything out of this weekend’s game with the reigning champions, it’s distinctly possible that they can at least bag themselves a consolation goal against The Old Lady.

Despite eventually easing their way to a ninth successive title last term, Juve were far from flawless and conceded 43 goals in total. 26 of those goals were shipped on the road and they travel to Stadio Ezio Scida with just one clean sheet earned from their last 14 away league matches.

We fully expect Andrea Pirlo’s men to prove too good here as they look to build on their solid start to the new campaign, but there’s plenty to suggest that there’s value in backing a Juventus win and both teams to score. Expect the hosts to try and keep things tight in the early stages, but we’re predicting a comfortable 1-3 success for the champions at full-time.
