Juventus v Dortmund: Predicted line-ups for the Champions League | OneFootball

The third competition for Borussia Dortmund also begins at 9 PM. In the league phase of the Champions League, one of the eight opponents is Juventus Turin, a familiar face in this competition. However, the personnel situation at BVB has further deteriorated. Thus, the two clubs could start against each other in Turin tonight.

Salih Özcan, as is well known, was not even registered for the Champions League. Otherwise, the long-term injured and the newly fallen Groß and Anselmino are still missing. This results in the following list of players that Niko Kovac cannot rely on in Turin today:

The Kicker suspects that Kovac will rely on Bellingham again. Beier is also expected back in the starting eleven, which would then have the following contours:

Gregor Kobel – Julian Ryerson, Waldemar Anton, Ramy Bensebaini – Yan Couto, Marcel Sabitzer, Felix Nmecha, Daniel Svensson – Jobe Bellingham, Maximilian Beier – Serhou Guirassy

Beier also set in the Champions League

Opponent Juventus has three failures and thus significantly fewer than their opponent to replace. Specifically, these are:

The start into the new season of Serie A went even better for Juventus than for BVB. Three victories from the first three games not only currently mean 2nd place in the table, but also a lot of self-confidence among the Italians, especially since they turned a temporary 2:3 against Inter Milan into a 4:3 victory on Saturday.

Juventus could start with this personnel today:

Michele Di Gregorio – Frederico Gatti, Bremer, Lloyd Kelly – Pierre Kalulu, Manuel Locatelli, Khephren Thuram, Andrea Cambiaso – Teun Koopmeiners, Kenan Yildiz – Jonathan David

At the bookmakers, host Juventus is of course the favorite. The differences in the odds are quite considerable. For a home win, they are mostly at 1.90. For a BVB victory, the odds are between 3.75 and 4.20.

Much has been written elsewhere about the historical duels of these two clubs. The last competitive match against each other, however, is already ten years ago, when BVB lost 0:3 at home against Juventus. The last friendly match against each other might be more relevant, when Juve was a bad guest at the season opening party in Dortmund and won 2:1.
