UEFA Women’s Champions League: Bayern Munich vs Juventus Preview, Prediction, Possible Lineups and Betting Tips

Juventus continue their run in the UWCL on October 16th, as the Bianconere face Bayern Munich and you can find a full preview, prediction, possible lineups and betting tips below.

Bayern Munich (W) vs Juventus (W) Preview

Juventus made a strong start to their UWCL campaign on October 7th, as the Bianconere picked-up a 2-1 victory over Benfica thanks to a brace from Cecilia Salavai.

Performing on the European stage will be a much-needed distraction for Max Canzi’s side after failing to win in the opening two league matches so far.

The Bainconere were held to a 0-0 stalemate by Sassuolo on the opening day of the season, before suffering a 1-0 defeat to Como in their latest Serie A encounter.

Winning the league title has become somewhat of an expectation for Juve in recent years, after lifting the trophy in six of the last eight seasons.

The Juventus organization has received a major boost in recent days which would impact the profile of both the men and women’s team – as Neymar Jr has been linked with a move to Turin.

Although the prospect of bringing such a huge name to the club is a tough noise to silence, the Bianconere will need to put it to the back of their minds as they face a huge test in Bayern Munich.

The German side have enjoyed a far stronger start to their league season, picking up 16-points from the opening six matches and conceding just one goal along the way.

Despite this incredible league form, Bayern were left humiliated on MD1 of the UWCL, as Jose Barcala’s side were thrashed 7-1 by Barcelona.

Bayern will need to put this embarrassing result behind them if they want to improve on their performance in Europe last season – exiting in the quarter finals after a 6-1 aggregate defeat to Lyon.

The Bundesliga Women’s side managed to move on for the defeat to Barcelona, as Bayern beat Wolfsburg 3-1 in their latest league fixture. 

Bayern Munich (W) vs Juventus (W) Prediction

Bayern Munich have found success in their previous meetings with Juventus, as the German side have picked up two wins and a draw from their three encounters.

Not only that, Juventus have failed to score a single goal during these matches and have conceded six goals along the way.

Although Bayern were humiliated in their last UWCL fixture, we expect the German side to have too much quality for Juventus and pick up a comfortable victory on October 16th.

Prediction: Bayern Munich (W) 2-0 Juventus (W)

Bayern Munich (W) vs Juventus (W) Possible Lineups

Bayern Munich: Mahmutovic; Gwinn, Ballisager, Viggosdottir, Kett; Caruso, Stanway; Dallmann, Tanikawa, Buhl; Harder

Juventus: De Jong; Kullberg, Calligaris, Harviken; Krumbiegel, Brighton, Godo, Carbonell; Schatzer, Girelli, Beccari

Bayern Munich (W) vs Juventus (W) Betting Tips

Both Teams To Score – No: +105

The men’s Serie A division has been criticised for a lack of goals this season and the Juventus Women’s team have followed a similar trend this season – scoring just two goals in three matches across all competitions.

Having a lack of killer instinct in goal will be a major issue for Juventus as they face a Bayern Munich side that has conceded just one league goal this season – but seven in one Champions League game.

Another concern for Juventus is that their two goals this season have both come from central defender, Cecilia Salvai, as the front-line continues to struggle.
