Juventus vs PSV

, KO: 17:45 Sep 17, 2024, Allianz Stadium
PSV

Juventus will mark their return to the Champions League with a home game against PSV Eindhoven at the Allianz Stadium on Tuesday evening.

The Old Lady missed out on a place in at Europe's top table last year after placing seventh in Serie A two seasons ago, though they secured a quickfire return with a top-three finish last term.

Max Allegri has since been replaced in the Juventus dugout by Thiago Motta, who has overseen two wins and two draws in his first four league games in charge.

The Italian giants and two time European champion now turn their attention to continental matters where they will look to hit the ground running by claiming three points against PSV.

Peter Bosz guided PSV to their first Eredivisie title since 2018 in spectacular style last season and they have since kicked off their title defence with five straight victories.

The Red and Whites reached the knockout stage of the Champions League for the first time in almost a decade last year before being eliminated by eventual runners-up Borussia Dortmund.

How the bookies view it: Light work for the Old Lady

Juventus head into their opening Champions League assignment in the new league phase format as odds-on 8/11 favourites on Bet 365.

PSV are big outsiders at 7/2 on Bet 365 while a share of the Allianz Stadium spoils can backed at a best price of 3/1 with William Hill.

Head to head: A first-ever tussle in Turin

It may come as a surprise to learn that Juventus and PSV have never previously crossed paths on the European circuit. 

Juventus last hosted Dutch opposition when facing off with Ajax at the quarter-final stage of the Champions league in 2018/19, with the Dutch powerhouse prevailing 3-2 on aggregate.

Players to watch: Dusan to deliver?

Dusan Vlahovic netted twice during Juventus’ 3-0 win away at Verona on matchday two in Serie A and the Serbian striker is likely to head the anytime goalscorer market once prices have been released.

Veteran forward Luuk de Jong is expected to spearhead PSV’s attack on Tuesday evening. The Dutch striker has registered eight goal involvements across his six appearances for the Red and Whites this season so far. 

Predicted line-ups

Juventus will be without late summer signing Francisco Conceicao who is currently sidelined with a muscular injury.

Similarly, PSV ace Hirving Lozano currently finds himself on the treatment table with a muscular issue.

Juventus: Di Gregorio; Savona, Gatti, Bremer, Cabal; Locatelli, Luiz; Cambiaso, Koopmeiners, Yildiz; Vlahovic

PSV: Benitez; Ledezma, Flamingo, Boscagli, Dams; Til, Veerman, Tillman; Bakayoko, Schouten; de Jong

Anything else catch the eye?

Given the intensity that PSV tend to attack with, backing the visitors to earn over 3.5 corners holds plenty of appeal here at 4/5 on UniBet.

Bosz’s side like to play on the front foot, evidenced by the fact that they have racked up a whopping 48 flag-kicks across their opening five Dutch top-flight assignments this term to date. 

Verona, Roma and Empoli have all earned at least four corners in their respective fixtures with Juventus in recent weeks and high-flying PSV are more than capable of following suit.

This match between Juventus and PSV will be played on Sep 17, 2024 and kick off at 17:45. Check below for our tipsters best Juventus vs PSV prediction. You may also visit our dedicated betting previews section for the most up to date previews.
