Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:

Crotone, 20th position with 0 points and a negative goal difference of -8

Crotone win their first point in this 2020-2021 Season after their promotion from the Serie B.  Crotone surviving the pressure dueling with Italy’s Champions in the Serie A Week 4 home game on Saturday 17 October 2020 at the Ezio Scida in Crotone, Italy.  It is sour draw for Juventus considering they were playing against the team in the last position while for Crotone is almost like a victory grabbing this single point avoiding an expected goleada.
