Juventus Set for Closed-Door Friendly Against Cremonese During Break

Juventus will use the international break to keep their match rhythm intact, with Luciano Spalletti’s side arranging a behind-closed-doors friendly against Cremonese at the Training Center on Friday 2 October.

The fixture, scheduled to begin at 12:30, comes during a period in which several Juventus players will remain away on national-team duty until shortly before Serie A resumes. It offers Spalletti an opportunity to assess the available group and prepare the side for their return to league action.

Juventus are due to travel to Cagliari on 11 October, with the Serie A match kicking off at 20:45. The training-ground meeting with Cremonese will therefore serve as the club’s principal competitive test before attention turns back to the championship and the demands of the Sardinian trip.

Attendance at the friendly will be limited to invited media representatives and club guests. Supporters will nevertheless be able to follow the match live through the Juventus website after free registration. Juventus Play will also show the game later that day, with repeat broadcasts planned for 16:00 and 20:00.
