RB Leipzig vs Juventus Preview
RB Leipzig
Leipzig started the Champions League with a challenging away fixture against Atletico Madrid. Despite a 2-1 defeat, Marco Rose’s men left a good impression and demonstrated competitiveness against one of Europe’s established sides. Given the new Champions League format, they still have a good chance of qualifying for the playoffs.
Leipzig’s squad is marked by a blend of experience and youthful ambition, with players eager to challenge for titles. Constant high pressure, long-range shots, and a focus on attack can bring the Germans success in European competitions.
Benjamin Šeško is the main danger for their opponents. The Slovenian striker has collected four goals and three assists in seven games this season. He also scored against Atletico Madrid in the first round of the Champions League.
Juventus
Thiago Motta is gradually incorporating his style into Juventus, and the changes are beginning to bear fruit. Juve now have greater control of the ball, and in terms of creativity, the Old Lady has improved drastically. The players understand what Motta expects from his team, aligning with his tactical vision.

Since Motta took over as head coach, Juventus have adopted a more aggressive attacking approach without compromising their defensive stability. At the start of the season, the Old Lady have conceded an average of only 0.14 goals and kept a clean sheet in six of their seven matches.
Dušan Vlahović is still a threat to every goalkeeper. This season, the Serbian striker has netted four goals in six Serie A matches. In the first game of the Champions League, he did not score but still delivered an assist.

- Pick: Juventus or Draw
- Odds: 1.58 (22Bet)
- Score prediction: RB Leipzig 1-1 Juventus
Marco Rose’s team started the season well, but they have only won once in the last four matches. Moreover, in this period, Leipzig dropped points against Union and St. Pauli, which cannot be considered a good result.
Leipzig are not below par in terms of attacking potential, but at the same time struggle defensively.
Have a nice evening, #RBLFans!

Juventus, on the other hand, seem to be a more balanced team. From match to match, the guests have improved notably in the offence.
In addition, they have not conceded a single goal in Serie A. Therefore, we think that the Old Lady will not lose in Germany. Our pick for this match would be Juventus or draw.
RB Leipzig vs Juventus Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Leipzig Under 1.5 Goals
- Odds: 1.65 (22Bet)
Taking into account the Bundesliga and the Champions League, Marco Rose’s men have scored more than one goal in only two of their six matches. Moreover, these instances occurred against teams like Augsburg and Bayer Leverkusen, which are currently not recognized for their defensive strength.

Another weak spot in Leipzig’s gameplay is the failure to convert dangerous moments. Despite having high-quality attackers, they occasionally squander big chances.
Juve at this time concede an average of only 0.14 goals and not once this season have the guests conceded more than one goal. Thus, we think Leipzig will have a hard time hitting the opponent’s goal. Our pick is Leipzig’s individual total under 1.5.
