Juventus vs Ferencvaros prediction, preview, team news and more | UEFA Champions League 2020-21
The UEFA Champions League is back in action this week as Juventus take on Ferencvaros in an important fixture in Turin on Tuesday. Juventus are behind Barcelona in their group and will need a convincing victory against the Hungarian side.
Ferencvaros have been excellent on the domestic front but have been largely out of their depth against the likes of Juventus and Barcelona. The Hungarian side is currently at the bottom of the group and will need a miracle to take something away from this game.
Juventus are currently three points behind Barcelona and cannot afford to slip up in this fixture. Cristiano Ronaldo is back for the Bianconeri and his presence should tip the scales further in Juventus' favour.
Juventus vs Ferencvaros Head-to-Head
The only official fixture played between Juventus and Ferencvaros in the history of the two clubs took place last month in the UEFA Champions League. The Bianconeri eased to a comfortable victory on the day and will want to replicate their performance on Tuesday.
Ferencvaros suffered a 4-1 defeat against Juventus before the international break and will have to play out of their skins to stand a chance in this game. Alvaro Morata and Paulo Dybala got on to the scoresheet on the day and are likely to play important roles for the Bianconeri this week.
