JUVENTUS VS BARCELONA PREDICTION

This promises to be an interesting game as it could either be highly entertaining or respect could take over and it could be a relatively dull tactical affair. Barcelona come into this match following defeat in El Clasico so Ronald Koeman will be desperate for a response from his players. They felt they were unfairly treated by VAR in the loss to Real Madrid but they will have to quickly turn their minds to this game. They carry an unbeaten run of 21 UEFA Champions League group stage matches into this game but Juventus pose a real threat to that. The Italians have not been at their best themselves as they have drawn against Crotone and Hellas Verona either side of their win in Kiev on matchday one. That has to be the most likely outcome of this game and it could very well be a tame goalless stalemate or 1-1, but it is hard to see either side winning this one based on current form and with the respect they both have for each other.
