Juventus Preview – Can Juventus pull away at top of Group G?
Juventus registered a valuable 2-0 win away from home at Dynamo Kiev in last week’s opening round of group matches and they now return to the more familiar surroundings of their Allianz Stadium as the hosts look to extend their unbeaten run in all competitions to nine matches.
The hosts have picked up five wins out of these last eight matches which include wins in the Champions League over Lyon (last season) and the aforementioned Dynamo Kiev along with a notable 3-0 home win over Napoli in Serie A; it’s also worth mentioning that Juventus have drawn three of these last eight matches too.
On home turf, Juventus have won their last four ties on the trot with victories against Bayer Leverkusen, Lokomotiv Moscow, Atletico Madrid and Lyon but they’re up against one of the giants of the European club stage in the shape of Barcelona, whom they’ve failed to beat in their last four meetings (two defeats, two draws).
Barcelona Preview – Can Barcelona build on emphatic Matchday 1 win?
A resounding 5-1 home win over Hungarian side, Ferencvaros, handed Barcelona the prefect start to their Champions League campaign as they trounced their opponents at the Nou Camp but they have a tough task ahead of them on Wednesday night at Juventus.
Indeed, that crushing win over the Hungarians has been Barcelona’s only highlight out of their last 4 matches overall as the visitors have stumbled to recent defeats against Getafe and Real Madrid and could only muster a point in a draw at home with Sevilla in La Liga.
And although Barcelona have lost just two of their last 15 away ties in the Champions League, they’ve also been involved in no fewer than seven stalemates within this sequence of results and a point on the road in Italy may actually be not too bad for Ronald Koeman’s side.
