Juventus Preview – Can Old Lady turn tie around?
Juventus will be looking to overturn the 1-goal deficit against Porto in this vital 2nd leg in Italy on Tuesday night following their 2-1 defeat away at Porto in the 1st leg, and having won three of their subsequent four matches, Juventus stand a decent chance of achieving this.
Serie A victories over Crotone, Spezia and Lazio along with a draw with Hellas Verona have seen Juventus respond to that defeat at Porto and results at home on the Champions League stage have also been promising for the hosts.
Juventus have won six of their last seven home ties in this competition which includes notable wins against Bayer Leverkusen, Atletico Madrid, Lyon and Dynamo Kiev, while also winning the last two home ties against Porto in previous meetings.
Porto Preview – Can Porto hold on?
Porto have lost just one of their last 12 matches overall in all competitions and they’ll be hoping that this sort of stubborn form can help them over the line in this return leg of their round of 16 Champions League tie against Juventus, as the Portuguese look to defend a 2-1 lead.
However, results away from home in the Champions League haven’t been entirely convincing as the Portuguese club have won three and lost three of their last six away ties in this competition with wins at Krasnodar, Marseille and Olympiakos, while also losing at Roma, Liverpool and Manchester City.
The bigger picture shows Porto have won just five of their last 12 away ties at Champions League level and they’ve also lost their last two visits to the Allianz Stadium too.
