In the 1st round of the main stage of the Champions League on September 16, 2025, a match will take place between Juventus and Borussia Dortmund. The visitors definitely won't surrender in Turin.
Our prediction for Juventus vs Borussia Dortmund
The Italians last summer put their trust in Thiago Motta. However, he disappointed and eventually had to be urgently replaced by Tudor, who managed to win the race with Roma for fourth place. But then came a modest result at the Club World Cup. Indeed, in Serie A, the club started with "clean sheet" wins over Parma and Genoa. With Inter, already in September, there was a real thriller ending in 4-3.
The Germans have been very similar to their opponents over the past year. Here, it was Nuri Şahin who failed, while Nico Kovač became the savior in the Bundesliga. Moreover, they also lost to Real at the Club World Cup in the summer, but in the quarterfinals. In the new season, the team started by beating Rot-Weiss Essen 1-0 in the cup, but then lost in the championship to St. Pauli. However, they then thrashed Union Berlin 3-0. After the break, against Heidenheim, they won less convincingly – 2-0.
The Turin club scored an average of 2.33 goals, conceding 0.92 in return. Guirassy and company, with 2.09 goals scored, conceded 1.50 per match.
