Juventus will host Como in Serie A on Saturday, February 21, 2026, at the Allianz Stadium in Turin. The pivotal clash between two top-four hopefuls is separated by just one place in the table. The Bianconeri are entering this clash under scrutiny after a heavy 5-2 Champions League defeat to Galatasaray in midweek. Meanwhile, Como are buoyed by a resilient 1-1 draw against AC Milan.
Champions League qualification is currently potentially limited to four Italian sides due to UEFA coefficient concerns. So this fixture carries significant weight in the race for European competition qualification. And it could reshape the momentum of both campaigns. Juventus are still unbeaten at home in Serie A this season.
They last lost a league fixture in Turin nearly a year ago. However, defensive frailties have emerged recently. They’ve conceded eight goals across their last three matches in all competitions. Como, under Cesc Fabregas, have been one of the league’s strongest travelers. They’ve accumulated 19 away points and lost just three times on the road, with no away defeats in 2026.

Juventus vs Como Match Details
Competition: Serie A
Date & kickoff: Saturday, February 21, 2026 – 9:00 AM ET / 2:00 PM GT

Best Bet for Juventus vs Como
Our best bet for Juventus vs Como is Both Teams to Score: Yes at -125 (BetMGM) / -122 (FanDuel).
Juventus have conceded in five of their last six matches across all competitions. This includes conceding three goals to Inter and five to Galatasaray. They’re still averaging over 1.6 goals per game in Serie A. However, their defensive xGA has spiked in February.
Especially with Bremer nursing a thigh issue and Pierre Kalulu suspended. Como’s attacking form further strengthens this angle. Nico Paz is ranked among Serie A’s top five in shot attempts per 90 minutes. However, he will serve out a suspension in this fixture. Even without him, Como have scored in eight of their last 10 league matches.
They found the net against both Milan clubs in recent weeks. They also rank inside the top half for xG on the road. Juventus’ attacking output at home is also consistent, especially when Kenan Yildiz and Teun Koopmeiners operate between the lines. Even amid rotation concerns, Luciano Spalletti’s side generates enough box entries to expect at least one goal.
Juventus vs Como Prediction
Our pick: Como to Win at +250 (BetMGM) / +270 (FanDuel)
Juventus are coming off a draining 5-2 defeat in Istanbul. They conceded four goals in the second half alone and saw their defensive structure fall like a house of cards. That result followed a 3-2 Derby d’Italia loss to Inter. So, Juve have shipped eight goals across two high-intensity fixtures in less than a week.
On the other hand, Como are coming into the fixture with momentum despite a three-game winless stretch. Their 1-1 draw with Milan highlighted discipline and adaptability. Boss Fabregas shifted to a back three to stabilize transitions.
They have lost just three away league games all season. Como are also only four points behind Juventus. So, they will be especially motivated. And while Juventus remain unbeaten at home in Serie A, squad depth concerns are mounting.
Bremer’s potential absence removes their primary aerial defender and organizer. Long-term absences for Dusan Vlahovic and Arkadiusz Milik limit striker options. Given Juventus’ fixture congestion and psychological setback midweek, Como are capable of securing a narrow away win.

Same-Game Parlay (Bet Builder) for Juventus vs Como
Bet $100 to Win $499.79 (FanDuel) Total Goals Under 3.5 (-350) + BTTS: Yes (-122) + Jonathan David to Score or Assist (+115)
Despite Juventus’ recent defensive issues, their home matches rarely escalate beyond four total goals, especially against disciplined opposition. Under 3.5 goals have landed in six of Juventus’ last eight league fixtures. BTTS captures both sides’ consistent scoring patterns and Jonathan David’s involvement offers value.
He is averaging over 0.6 goal contributions per 90 minutes this season and ranking among Juventus’ leaders in touches inside the penalty area. Even in limited appearances recently, his off-ball movement creates secondary chances. If deployed centrally, he remains Juve’s most direct threat.
Under 3.5 goals reflects both teams’ preference for structured buildup rather than chaotic transitions. BTTS accounts for Juventus’ current defensive fragility and Como’s efficiency on the road. David’s inclusion enhances upside without relying solely on an outright result. Should Juventus dominate possession but concede on the counter, the odds still hold viability.
