---------------------------
Juventus heads into their 25th Champions League campaign aiming to secure full points against Villarreal at Estadio de la Ceramica, having earned a draw from a high-scoring opener, while the Spanish side suffered a narrow defeat in their first match.
Team Analysis:
Villarreal returned to the Champions League after a strong domestic finish last season and currently sit just behind Barcelona and Real Madrid in La Liga, though their European campaign began with a costly defeat to Tottenham. Despite solid home form in other competitions, their Champions League record at El Madrigal remains modest. Juventus, meanwhile, are seeking consistency after last season’s early exit, having opened with a dramatic 4-4 draw against Borussia Dortmund before settling for league stalemates, leaving them under pressure to deliver results in Europe.
Player Situation:
Villarreal face injury concerns with several defenders unavailable and key forwards uncertain, leaving Tajon Buchanan to lead their attack, while Juventus weigh options up front between Jonathan David, Lois Openda, and the in-form Dusan Vlahovic, alongside dealing with fitness doubts over Bremer and Khephren Thuram but boosted by Francisco Conceicao’s return.
Result Prediction:
Juventus remain unbeaten under Tudor but rely heavily on comebacks, while Villarreal’s strong recent form suggests they are well placed to bounce back from their loss to Tottenham with a home victory.
Predicted Result: Villarreal 2-1 Juventus.
