Juventus and Cremonese will be back in action in Serie A when they square off at the Giovanni Zini Stadium on Thursday (January 4).
The Bianconeri are on a blistering run of six league wins and will look to pick up where they left off in November.
Cremonese, meanwhile, drew the curtains on 2022 last Thursday when they fell to a 3-1 friendly loss against Udinese. Before that, they picked up two wins and one draw from their first three friendlies, scoring a staggering 13 goals and keeping three clean sheets.
Cremonese will hope their recent upturn in form can continue in Serie A, where they sit 18th in the standings and are winless this season.
Juventu, meanwhile, are on a run of six league wins since a 2-0 loss against AC Milan on October 8. The Bianconeri head into the new year off the back of a solid run of friendly results, winning two and drawing one of their three games.
With 31 points from 15 games, Juventus are third in Serie A, ten points off first-placed Napoli.
