Juventus show impressive results in their domestic league and they are on the verge on clinching sixth title in a row. Turin’ side has won their last seven matches in a row with 15-2 on aggregate. The team had excellent offensive line and play solid in defense, leaving opponents in Serie A no chance to catch up with the team. As to performance on the road, Allegri’s men took 11 wins and recorded four defeats in last 15 games on the road. Last three away matches ended with 2-0 wins of Bianconeri.
Porto are undefeated in matches at home this season while Juventus show strong results in away matches as well. However, home-field advantage is crucial in such important matches as Champions League playoffs so we can expect the hosts, who clearly are underdogs of the matchup, to show their best football at Dragao and at least avoid defeat in home leg.
Prediction for the match: Porto to win with +0,5 Asian handicap.
