RB Leipzig take on the visitors Juventus in the round 2 match of UEFA Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Wednesday, October 2nd at
RB Leipzig seem to have found a coach who, while perhaps not at Nagelsmann’s level, is capable of providing stability at a high standard. Last season, they managed to once again reach the Champions League playoffs and remained among the top teams domestically. Moreover, in the race for 4th place in the Bundesliga, they even overtook Borussia Dortmund, the 2024 Champions League finalist, no less! This season, despite selling key players like Olmo and Simakan, and bringing in several newcomers (Nusa alone cost the Germans a hefty €21 million), Leipzig has started well. They even had a promising start in the Champions League, with Šeško scoring in the 4th minute in Madrid. However, Atlético had Griezmann, whose goal and assist secured a comeback victory for the hosts — a 2-1 result sealed in the 90th minute.

Juventus has opted for a major overhaul. After an extended slump, the "Old Lady" managed to achieve decent results last season, highlighted by their Coppa Italia victory. In Serie A, they not only returned to the top four but also finished 3rd. However, this came amidst a series of failures, and it's no surprise that Allegri was sacked in the spring, right after the cup triumph. Everything changed in the summer: Thiago Motta, the mastermind behind Bologna's surprising run to the Champions League last year, took over as coach. The squad underwent significant changes too. Many stars were shown the door — Szczesny, Kostić, Chiesa, Alex Sandro, Rugani, and Rabiot (who chose not to extend his contract) all left. Over €100 million was spent on new signings like Douglas Luiz and Koopmeiners, along with others such as Di Gregorio, Khephren Thuram, Nico González, Kalulu, and Francisco Conceição. Despite starting with a couple of resounding victories, Juventus then began to settle for goalless draws. But they made an exception for PSV in the Champions League, defeating the Dutch side 3-1.
This will be the first-ever meeting between the German and Italian sides. The "Bulls" are considered the favorites in this matchup as they play at home. However, the visitors have significant potential as well. We recommend betting on "total over 2.5 goals" in this game.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
