2022/23 Italian Serie A
Matchday 16
Cremonese v Juventus
Stadio Giovanni Zini
Cremona, Italy
Wednesday, 4 January 2023
Kick-off is at 19h30
Juventus will look to continue where they left off in November when they face Cremonese at the Stadio Giovanni Zini on Wednesday, January 4.
The Bianconeri embarked on an impressive run after being beaten 2-0 by reigning Serie A champions AC MIlan on October 8, winning their next six matches in a row.
That run, which concluded with a 3-0 victory over Lazio, took Max Allegri's side within two points of the Rossoneri in third place.

Allegri has stressed the importance of regaining their momentum quickly in the new year as the fixtures will be coming thick and fast until the end of the season.
"The resumption of the championship will be important," he told the club's official website. "We have to pick up where we left off, also because there won't be a moment to catch our breath until June, so we will have to be good in the games we have to play."
La Cremo have the unenviable record as the only team in the top flight without a win to their name this term and went into the seven-week recess six points adrift of safety in 18th spot.
The Lombardy outfit lost 2-0 to Empoli last time out after drawing their three previous games and head coach Massimiliano Alvini admits they are shipping too many goals (26) - the joint-second worst defensive record in the league.
"We have defects in defense and we concede goals too easily: this is our responsibility," Alvini said. "We develop a lot, we have many opportunities. The team has its own precise idea, there's still a lot of time to draw up balances."
