Juventus W vs SL Benfica W Prediction & Tips
The Turin team arrives at the start of the Champions League in somewhat ambiguous form. After a successful summer, marked by victory in the Serie A Women’s Cup, Juventus failed to get off to a winning start in the new league season: the match against Sassuolo ended in a goalless draw, despite clear superiority in the game.
During the summer, the Bianconeri renewed their squad: Sara Gama, Alisha Lehmann and Bergamaschi left, but they were replaced by the promising Tatiana Pinto and Michela Cambiaghi. The team is still looking for the optimal balance between new partnerships and rapport, but at home Juventus traditionally plays with inspiration.
Portuguese side Benfica arrive in Italy in high spirits after two convincing victories in the national championship. However, the start of the season was not easy: defeat in the Super Cup against Torrense and a draw with Racing raised doubts about the team’s stability.
Nevertheless, Filipa Patão’s side quickly returned to their attacking philosophy, scoring 13 goals in the last two matchdays. The Lisbon club continues to develop and has strengthened its squad with the arrival of Caroline Møller and Carissa Beckman, adding depth to the midfield. However, the injury to experienced defender Ana Borges has significantly weakened the back line.
