The new Champions League is back and Juventus will be traveling to Leipzig for the second day. After the convincing home victory against PSV Eindhoventhe Old Lady is aiming for 3 additional points, which, obtained against a top-ranked opponent, would be fundamental. It won’t be easy, however, and a very tense match is expected. Indeed, Juventus and Leipzig have the two best defenses in Europe : the bianconeri have so far conceded no goals in the league and only one in the Champions League, the Germans have conceded 2.

How the new Champions League format works
With 36 teams at the start, there are no longer eight groups, but a single group, designed as a single championship. For each participating team, we will go from the six matches in the current group stage (three at home and three away) to eight matches in the new Champions League. Each team plays an equal number of home and away matches (four home and four away), but against different opponents.
