Match preview
After a defeat to Bayern in the second round of the Champions League, Juventus responded with an impressive run: four wins in five matches (three in the league and one in the Champions League), losing just once. The team has shown solid performances, demonstrating disciplined defending and capitalizing on their chances in attack. In the Champions League, Juventus have collected six points, defeating Benfica (2-1) and Atlético (2-1).
Playing at home, Juventus will look to set the tempo: their strategy will be to control possession, actively involve the midfield and flanks, create dangerous chances, and make the most of set pieces. Their main advantage is the motivation to win in front of their fans and prove they are not just accidental participants in the Champions League.
Lyon are serial Champions League winners: this season, the team is on fire, winning all ten matches with an aggregate score of 39:7. The French club has been unstoppable, sweeping aside every opponent. In three Champions League matches, Lyon defeated Wolfsburg, Arsenal, and St. Pölten with a combined score of 9:2.
Lyon, in turn, can play a more balanced game but will emphasize attacking play: they boast experience, pacey players, and a well-blended mix of attacking and midfield lines. It’s likely they won’t concede the initiative, instead opting to control the ball, use quick passes, and be clinical in front of goal.
Probable lineups
Juventus: Magnin, Kullberg, Harviken, Salvai, Carbonell, Godo, Schatzer, Bonansea, Pinto, Beccari
Lyon: Endler, Tarciane, Renard, Engen, Bacha, Dumornay, Heaps, Albert, Diani, Brand, Hegerberg
