Juventus Turin returns to the top of this Serie A after a rather complicated 2023-2024 season on the pitch and behind the scenes. The Old Lady is undefeated in Calcio since the start of this 2024-2025 season and has achieved 4 clean sheets in 4 official matches against Como (3-0), on the pitch of Hellas Verona (0-3), in front of AS Roma (0-0) and recently at Empoli (0-0).
PSV Eindhoven have also been walking on water since they started this new season. Bosz’s players, eliminated in the Johan Cruyff Shield final against Feyenoord (4-4, 2 pens 4) at the beginning of August, have had a perfect run in the Eredivisie where they have posted 5 wins in 5 matches against Waalwijk (5-1), at Heracles (1-3), at Almere City (1-7), in front of GAEagles (3-0) and against Nijmegen (2-0) this weekend. Will the Dutch attack, which has scored 20 goals in 5 matches, an average of 4 goals per game, pierce the Italian net for the first time this season?
Juventus Turin will play this first Champions League match without Conceiçao (muscle injury), without Milik (knee) and without Pogba (doping). The young midfielder Adzic, injured, remains doubtful. PSV Eindhoven travels to Italy without Fofana (knee) and without Lozano (muscle injury). Two players from the Dutch club remain doubtful, the American Dest (knee) and the Dutch Obispo (knee).
Juve’s strong point since Thiago Motta’s arrival on the bench this summer is their defense! Indeed, the Old Lady has found its defensive strength again since it has not conceded a single goal in 4 official matches. Dusan Vlahovic, who scored twice on the pitch against Hellas Verona, is starting this season well and he should weigh on the Dutch defense.
PSV will play in Turin without its top scorer Hirving Lozano (4 goals) due to injury. The Dutch club will be able to count on two other players, midfielder Guus Til (3 goals) and striker Luuk de Jong (2 goals).
Although this PSV Einshoven team is impressive on the national scene (5 wins in 5 games, 20 goals scored and 3 goals conceded), the latter might not have the same performance on European pitches. Eliminated last season by Borussia Dortmund (1-1 and 2-0) last season, PSV inherits a big chunk of entry! The Old Lady wants to find all its splendor on the European scene, such is Thiago Motta’s mission. It starts with a success at home against the Dutch club.
Notre pronostic Juventus Turin – PSV Eindhoven : victory for Juventus Turin!
Juventus/Draw and Over 1.5
Undefeated since the start of this new season (2 wins and 2 draws), Juventus Turin should preserve its invincibility against the Dutch club which could suffer its first poor performance of the season. Juve has scored 6 times in 4 matches while PSV has 20 goals in 5 games… This opposition should therefore be very rich in goals.
PSV Eindhoven : Plus the 0.5 but
PSV Eindhoven, who have scored 20 goals in their last 5 league games, will they score again but in the Champions League this time? The Turin lock could jump for the first time this season! PSV have always scored at least one goal in 6 of their last 7 Champions League games.
