Juventus vs PSV Prediction and Betting Tips | September 17th 2024

Juventus will welcome PSV to Juventus Stadium in their UEFA Champions League campaign opener on Tuesday. Both teams booked direct spots in the group stage of the competition, with the hosts finishing third in the Serie A standings last season and Lampen winning the Eredivisie title.

The Old Lady are unbeaten in their four Serie A games this season, though the last two have ended in goalless draws. They were held to a goalless draw by Empoli in their first game after the international break last week, keeping their fourth consecutive clean sheet.

The visitors have enjoyed a 100% record in the Eredivisie thus far and registered their fifth consecutive win of the season on Saturday. They resumed their league campaign after the international break with a comfortable 2-0 home win over NEC. Luuk de Jong scored from the penalty spot in the 11th minute and Guus Til doubled the lead five minutes later.

Juventus vs PSV Prediction

I Bianconeri have enjoyed an unbeaten start to their season, keeping clean sheets in all four games thus far. They have suffered just one loss at home in all competitions since last season and are strong favorites. They play in the Champions League after missing out last season. They were eliminated from the group stage in the 2022-23 campaign, suffering three consecutive losses.

Thiago Motta fielded a strong squad in their Serie A meeting against Empoli on Saturday, yet his side were held to a goalless draw. They play Napoli in the league later this week, so Motta is expected to make a few changes to the starting XI here.

Boeren have recorded five consecutive wins in the Eredivisie, after losing on penalties to Feyenoord in the Johan Cruyff Shield last month. They have scored 20 goals in their last five games while conceding just thrice and will look to continue their momentum here.

Peter Bosz has called up 22 players for the trip to Turin and the list includes Mauro Júnior and Noa Lang, who were struggling with match fitness.

Considering the current form of the two teams and their busy schedule, they are expected to play out a draw.
