Como vs Juventus: betting odds 7 Feb 2025
Como — Juventus betting tips 7 Feb 2025
Juventus head into their match against Como following a string of inconsistent performances in late January, prompting them to make several moves in the winter transfer window. They may already feature new defensive reinforcements Renato Veiga and Lloyd Kelly, both of whom arrived on loan from the Premier League and could help cover for injured players without a drop in quality.
Como, aside from their surprising thrashing of Udinese (4:1), have had a shaky start to the year, losing three of their last four league matches. However, the newly promoted side remains in mid-table with a small cushion above the relegation zone. Defensively, they have been relatively solid, conceding just 6.06 xGA in their last five matches—only six Serie A teams have been more resilient at the back during this stretch.
Juventus, meanwhile, have conceded five goals in their last five league matches, making them statistically the joint-fourth best defence in Serie A alongside AS Roma. Their recent win over Empoli (4:1) was a rare attacking outburst, as they had previously struggled in front of goal, managing just one goal across 270 minutes against Club Brugge (0:0), Napoli (1:2), and Benfica (0:2). Thiago Motta appears set to rely more on Randal Kolo Muani in attack, while Dušan Vlahović may be used as an option off the bench.
When these sides met in the opening round of the season, Juventus dominated with a 3:0 win in Turin. Como have since gained valuable Serie A experience and are likely to put up more of a fight, but a high-scoring match still seems unlikely. Given Juventus’ recent struggles in attack and Como’s respectable defensive numbers, a low-scoring affair appears to be the safest bet.
