Matchday 3 of the Champions League commences on Tuesday night and our next preview features a clash between Juventus and Lokomotiv Moscow as the betting tips continue at the Allianz Stadium.
Juventus Prediction – Can Juventus see off Russian challenge?
Tuesday night’s hosts, Juventus, will be in supremely confident mood ahead of Matchday 3 when they entertain Russian side Lokomotiv Moscow at their Allianz Stadium having put together an impressive 6-match winning streak in all competitions.
In actual fact, Juventus are unbeaten in their last 11 matches overall in all competitions and this impressive sequence of results includes a point away at Atletico Madrid in a 2-2 draw away from home on Matchday 1 which was followed up with a resounding 3-0 home win against Bayer Leverkusen.
Juventus have also made a blistering start to the new Serie A season as they sit top of the domestic top flight having won 7 of their 8 matches to date, and this confidence should filter through to tonight’s clash as they seek to record back-to-back home wins in this season’s Champions League group stage.
In addition, Juventus have been excellent at home in all competitions lately as the hosts have won their last 6 matches on the trot, scoring 14 goals and 4 of these 6 matches also beating the over 2.5 goals line.
Lokomotiv Moscow Prediction – Can Lokomotiv Moscow stay the pace?
3rd placed Lokomotiv Moscow have made a reasonable if more modest start to their Champions League group campaign as they sit on 3 points and find themselves just 1 point adrift of both tonight’s hosts, Juventus, and also Spanish club Atletico Madrid, as we head into Matchday 3 on Tuesday night.
The visitors have won 3 of their last 4 matches in all competitions as they’ve recorded wins in the domestic Premier League over Zenit, Arsenal Tula and Akhmat Grozny but although they registered an opening Matchday 1 victory away at Bayer Leverkusen 2-1, the Russian outfit stumbled to a 2-0 defeat at home to Atletico Madrid in the previous round of matches.
With just 2 wins from their last 10 matches overall in the Champions League, this looks a tough assignment for the visitors, but things get worse when you look at Lokomotiv Moscow’s results away from home in this competition.
Lokomotiv Moscow have managed to record just 1 away win out of their last 14 matches on their travels at this level, and a trip to Torino to face an in-form Juventus side should be beyond them here.
Key-Facts – Juventus v Lokomotiv Moscow
- Juventus are unbeaten in their last 11 matches overall in all competitions
- Juventus have won their last 6 home matches on the trot in all competitions
- Lok. Moscow have won just 1 out of their last 14 away matches in the CL
