Juventus have a proud history in the European Cup and Champions League, although Max Allegri’s return to the Turin club hasn’t gone as expected. The Bianconeri have made a dog’s dinner of their group, with a 2-1 defeat at the Parc des Princes occurring in the first match and they were then beaten at home to Benfica.

The bookies are prepared to offer a big price about Juve claiming a victory in this clash, although it should be noted that Allegri’s side are unbeaten at home in Serie A this season. They have won four and drawn two games at the Juventus Stadium, with fifteen goals scored and three conceded.

Last week, Juventus played out a crazy 4-3 defeat at Benfica which saw them chasing the game at 4-1 down against Portuguese opponents and they scored four goals previously when thrashing Empoli although there are clearly defensive issues within the ranks and it will be interesting to see if they can finish third in the group.

Juventus might be among the Europa League betting favourites if they drop into the competition, although Paris Saint-Germain will be a popular Champions League accumulator option and we might well see lots of punters wanting to back PSG and both teams to score in what could be another end-to-end clash.
