Juventus Preview
Juve have had a difficult start to this edition of the UEFA Champions League 2022/23. The team coached by Massimiliano Allegri lost both of its two matches so far. Juventus vs Maccabi Haifa is a match in which the home side must win if they want to advance to the round of 16.
In their most recent home game against Benfica, the Turin side lost. An unfortunate 2-1 result of defensive errors left the Italians with a bad run in the European tournament. This is not the first time the Zebras have faced the Greens, as in 2009 they also played in the group stage, where Juventus won with a goal by Giorgio Chiellini.
Absences: Federico Chiesa, Paul Pogba, Kaio Jorge.
Possible Juventus lineup: Wojciech Szczesny; Danilo, Bremer, Leonardo Bonucci, Mattia De Sciglio; Angel Di Maria, Manuel Locatelli, Leandro Paredes, Filip Kostic; Arkadiusz Milik, Dusan Vlahovic.
Maccabi Haifa Preview
Maccabi Haifa is a tough Israeli club that has tried to go toe-to-toe with the famous and flamboyant European teams. The green team currently occupies fourth place in Group H, having lost both of its Champions League matches so far. In this Juventus vs Maccabi Haifa match, the Asians hope to achieve a tremendous feat: win away to one of the best teams in Italy to keep dreaming of qualifying for the Round of 16.
In their most recent international encounter, Barak Bakhar’s side lost 3-1 to PSG; as in the worst nightmares, Neymar, Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé were on the scoresheet for the visitors. The Israelis will have to learn to hold on to the result in order to triumph in this new matchday, as they opened the scoring against PSG.
Absences: Suf Podgoreanu, Mahmoud Jaber.
Possible Maccabi Haifa lineup: Josh Cohen; Daniel Sundgren, Shon Goldberg, Dylan Batubinsika; Dolev Haziza, Mohammed Fani, Neta Lavi, Tjaronn Chery, Pierre Cornud; Omer Atzili, Frantzdy Pierrot.
JefeBet Prediction
For this clash, Juventus vs Maccabi Haifa, we believe that the home side will take all three points. The weight and hierarchy of the Italians will surely make them go for the game from the first minute. Although Maccabi Haifa is making a great effort to stay in this competition, it will be quite difficult for them to beat the team of Di Maria, Paredes and Bonucci.
Prediction: Juventus win 2-0.
