In the 26th round of Italy’s Serie A on February 21, 2026, Juventus will face Como. The hosts will find it difficult to beat a direct competitor.
The Turin giant last season managed to stay among the Italian football leaders only thanks to the coaching change from Thiago Motta to Tudor. However, after a series of poor results in autumn, even the Croatian coach was dismissed. Spalletti has also had his setbacks. They lost 0-3 to Atalanta in the cup. In the Champions League, they already have to start the playoffs now. The away game against Galatasaray was a disaster, 2-5, and it’s hard to see how they can recover. Still, in Serie A under Luciano, there’s clear improvement. However, there has been a recent slump: a draw with Lazio and a loss to Inter.
The team from “Giuseppe Sinigaglia” finally played in Serie A last season after a very long break. They immediately finished tenth with 49 points! Moreover, this season they have gained even more momentum and become real contenders for European competitions. However, there were draws against Atalanta and Milan and even a loss to Fiorentina. In the cup, they proceeded past Napoli, but only after a penalty shootout.
Yildiz and his teammates manage to score an average of 1.72 goals per match, while conceding 0.92. Cesc’s side averages 1.56 goals scored and only 0.7 conceded per game.
