THE PREDICTION
An injury-hit Juventus side travel to Spain for this first leg knowing that they face a side in fine goalscoring form. With the talented Danjuma – who bagged a hat-trick in La Liga over the weekend – back fit and firing for Villarreal, the scene is set for a tough game for the visitors who could be on the back foot for large portions of this encounter. The Old Lady of course possess some impressive firepower of their own, with the recently-signed Vlahovic hoping to make an impression on his Champions League debut. With these factors in mind, both teams getting on the scoresheet is a reasonable assumption.
