Juventus vs. PSV: Match Prediction

With the support of their fans, the Turin side aims to play assertively against opponents of any level. Consequently, Juventus regularly scores in home matches: in 24 previous home games in the Champions League, the club failed to score in regular time only four times. Moreover, in half of those matches, the Italians scored at least twice. However, their defense is not always reliable, with only one clean sheet in their last eight home encounters in this European competition.

PSV also plays boldly in attack even away from home and has no issues with scoring: in 15 of their last 18 away matches in the Champions League, the club breached the opponent's defense. Additionally, the Dutch side scored six goals in their last two general stage matches. However, the team cannot boast of a strong defense: in their last 13 away matches in this tournament, PSV has not kept a clean sheet once.

I expect a high-scoring game from both opponents, so my prediction: Both teams to score – yes
