PSV Eindhoven vs. Juventus: UCL Match Preview, Odds & Prediction

The Champions League playoff between PSV Eindhoven and Juventus is heating up! After Juventus' 2-1 win in Turin, they're looking to secure their spot in the last 16. But PSV Eindhoven isn't giving up yet - they're eager to make up for the one-goal deficit on their home turf.

Previous Matches and Head-to-head

PSV has a pretty impressive record at home, with a 12-game unbeaten run in Europe, including wins against Girona, Shakhtar Donetsk, and Liverpool. However, their recent form has been shaky, with only two wins from their last eight Eredivisie fixtures.

On the other hand, Juventus is looking strong, with four wins on the spin in the past few weeks. They also have an excellent record in European Cup or Champions League knockout stage ties, progressing from their last 20 when winning the first leg.

The team news is that PSV will miss Ricardo Pepi, Sergino Dest, and Malik Tillman due to injuries. On the other hand, Juventus will likely start with Randal Kolo Muani leading the attack after his impressive five goals in as many games since joining on loan from Paris Saint-Germain.

PSV Eindhoven x Juventus Team News

PSV Eindhoven is dealing with some significant injuries. Ricardo Pepi is out for the rest of the season with a knee injury, and Americans Sergino Dest and Malik Tillman are also long-term absentees. To make matters worse, full-backs Rick Karsdorp and Olivier Boscagli are unlikely to play either.

On the bright side, Mauro Junior, Richard Ledezma, and Manchester United loanee Tyrell Malacia are all vying for a spot in the starting lineup. And with Luuk de Jong leading the charge up front, PSV Eindhoven still has some firepower.

Meanwhile, Juventus is looking strong. With Dusan Vlahovic out of favor, Randal Kolo Muani is taking the reins. This French forward has been on fire, scoring five goals in as many games since joining on loan from Paris Saint-Germain.

Thiago Motta is known for mixing things up, even when his team wins. We might see some changes on Wednesday, with Manuel Locatelli, Kenan Yildiz, and Andrea Cambiaso all waiting in the wings.

Unfortunately, Juventus has its share of injuries. Bremer, Juan Cabal, and Arkadiusz Milik are all out for the long haul, while Pierre Kalulu and Douglas Luiz still struggle with their injuries.
