headlinez.news – Juventus will look to continue its strong form when it travels to Sardinia to face Cagliari in a Serie A matchup on Sunday, January 18, 2026. Kick-off at Unipol Domus is scheduled for 2:45 AM EST, with live streaming available on Vidio.
The Bianconeri are arriving with significant momentum, having shown marked improvement under Luciano Spalletti over the past two months. Juventus currently sits just four points behind league-leading Inter.
A dominant 5-0 victory over Cremonese at Allianz Stadium highlighted Juventus’s recent surge. Bremer, Jonathan David, Kenan Yildiz, and Weston McKennie all found the back of the net, along with an own goal from Filippo Terracciano.
That result extended a positive trend for Juventus, which is increasingly demonstrating consistency in all phases of play. The team is proving particularly effective in the final third and has solidified its defense.
Cagliari, meanwhile, finds itself in a precarious position. After a promising start to the season, the Sardinian club has slipped and is now hovering just above the relegation zone.
Last week, Cagliari suffered a 3-0 defeat at Genoa, with goals from Lorenzo Colombo, Morten Frendrup, and Leo Ostigard exposing vulnerabilities in their back line. This loss underscored the team’s struggles as the season reaches a critical stage.
Cagliari’s preparations are further complicated by injury concerns. Alessandro Deiola is doubtful for the match, and key center-back Yerry Mina remains sidelined.
Juventus has a relatively clean bill of health. Daniele Rugani, Dusan Vlahovic, and Arkadiusz Milik are still unavailable, but Federico Gatti and Francisco Conceicao are progressing in their recovery. The team will be looking to maintain its winning form and close the gap on Inter at the top of the Serie A table.
