Juventus vs Man City Preview

Juventus hosts the English champions at the Allianz Stadium in what seems to be a must win game for Pep Guardiola's misfiring Manchester City. Will the Premier League side react?

Juventus vs Man City Form

Juventus are winless in their last four games in all competitions and have won just two games across their last ten matches.

They've struggled to create quality chances with just seven goals scored from 6.2 xG in 7 Champions League games this season.

Their last three Champions League matches have featured under 2.5 goals while three of their five Champions League game this season have seen Both Teams To Score.

The Italian side have also been fragile defensively, having kept just one clean sheet in the Champions League this season. They've allowed opposition teams quality space, having conceded a total of five goals from nine xG this season.

Man City are in unfamiliar territory and in abysmal form. They have lost six of their last ten games in all competitions with two wins and two draws.

Their last Champions League match was a dramatic 3-3 draw at home to Feyenoord with Pep Guardiola's team letting a three-goal lead slip up.

The English champions have being disastrous defensively and have conceded in eight of their last ten games in all competitions while also conceding 2+ goals in 8 of those fixtures.

In the Champions League though, Man City have flourished in attack, having scored 3+ goals in four consecutive Champions League games while four of their five Champions League games this season have seen over 4.5 goals.

Juventus vs Man City Predictions

Juventus are struggling defensively to contain teams while being blunt in attack. Despite Man City's defensive frailties, City have enough attacking firepower to blast through. I'll be backing Man City over 1.5 team goals.
