Juventus vs PSV Prediction & Betting Tips (17 September)

The Old Lady regains her rank in the Champions League after missing the previous edition and even no European stature last year following this story of withdrawal of points. In short, after a good season in 3rd place in Serie A behind the two Milanese clubs, Juventus, now wrinkled by Thiago Motta, does not seem to be laughing for its debut in the championship with three days without defeat before the international break and above all two successes against the promoted Calcio Como 3-0 and a tough one inflicted on Hellas Verona who had just slapped Naples 0-3. On the other hand, during the 3rd day, before the international break, the Bianconeri came up against AS Roma 0-0 and they tried to rediscover the taste of winning last weekend on the Empoli pitch. to be continued.Champion of the Netherlands for the 25th time in its history, PSV therefore had to wait six years to once again boast on the highest step of the Dutch country. Last season, it is always good to remember that the Dutch participated in the 8th finals of the Champions League but were beaten by the future finalist of the edition, Borussia Dortmund 1-3 over the two matches.

With Juventus, Sporting, PSG, Girona, Shakhtar, Brest, Red Star Belgrade and Liverpool, Eindhoven will have a lot to do but it's playable. Note that in the championship, the reigning champion got off to a flying start with four successes in as many matches against Waalwijk 5-1, Heracles 1-3, Almere City 1-7 and before the break for the reception of the G.A. Eagles 3-0 . Last weekend, Peter Bosz's men tried to pass the five out of five mark for the coming of NEC Nijmegen to follow. 

With Thiago Motta at the helm, Juventus obviously hopes to do well in this Champions League. However, there are defections to deplore for the former Barça and PSG midfielder. Indeed, the former OM center forward, Milik (not called up for Poland) remains injured like the former Nice player, Thuram and the former Parisian player, Weah. Note that Pogba is suspended for doping and that Kostic recently joined Fenerbahce. Not called up by Ronald Koeman, Koopmeiners has just arrived but will play a major role in this squad like Kalulu. Note that young crack Francisco Conceicao recently returned from injury. Author of 2 goals in the league this season, Vlahovic will obviously be expected by the Tifosi just like the young crack Yildiz (2 assists already in the league).

 Probably a blow for PSV who saw their top scorer and captain, Luuk de Jong (29 pawns, 15 assists last season in the league) leave prematurely due to injury before the break. If the former Sevilla FC and FC Barcelona player was not called up for selection, he had little time to get back on his heels (uncertain this evening). He joined an infirmary already made up of Sergino Dest, Fofana, Mauro Junior, Obispo and Saibari, all injured. Selected by Tedesco with Belgium and author of an appearance against the Blues, right winger Bakayoko (12 goals, 9 assists last season) will a priori be in the mix like Til (2 goals, 2 pancakes already in the Eredivisie), or even from the middle Veerman (1 achievement, 4 offerings in the championship). Note the uncertainty around the talented Noa Lang, absent before the break and absent from Koeman’s list with the Netherlands.
