Juventus vs Benfica Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 14th September 2022
Following the first round of the group stage Juventus are number three on zero points, while Benfica have three points as number one.
Getting through the group phase of the Champions League should be a mere formality for Juventus, who are once again aiming to go deep. They join an elite few who, with Lady Luck on their side, could attempt to reach for the title.
Benfica enter the Champions League as big outsiders for actually winning the title, when once again going up against the big guns. However, getting through to the knockout round does not look beyond them, should they gain a bit of momentum.
Juventus only average a modest 1.2 goals per game in their last ten matches in this tournament, in which they scored 12 goals. They also conceded 14 for an average of 1.4 per game. They kept their opponents from scoring three times.
Benfica show off splendid stats in their last ten matches, where they hit the target 2.4 times on average per game. They scored 24 goals and conceded four, an average of 0.4 a game. They held on for a clean sheet in seven of these.
Juventus vs Benfica Prediction
Juventus have been too mediocre in their last three matches, where a win has failed to come their way. Against Fiorentina, they gained a point in a 1-1 draw, before coming up short against PSG, who ran out 2-1 winners. Lately, they managed to steal a point in a 2-2 draw with Salernitana. Juventus won five of their last six Champions League matches at Allianz Stadium, scoring 12 and conceding seven along the way. They lost once but didn't draw a single match.
In their last three matches, Benfica first beat Vizela 2-1, then Maccabi Haifa by 2-0 and finally Famalicao by 0-1. Benfica won three of a possible six away matches in the Champions League, as well as playing two draws and suffering one defeat. They scored 11 while also conceding nine times.
Juventus go into their match at Allianz Stadium as favourites with the bookies, but form has been too shabby for us to back that claim. We prefer a bet on Benfica, while the more cautious punter might prefer the double-chance.
