Tottenham vs Juventus Betting Preview
Tottenham Hotspur
Despite a fairly poor start of the season, the Spurs are doing pretty well in all competitions. In the English Premier League, this team is on the 4th spot at the moment, with a good chance of moving upwards in the near future. They’ve been also doing great in the Champions League, where they’re without a defeat this season. That’s a really impressive achievement, considering that they played against Real Madrid in the group stage of this competition.
Tottenham will have to stay undefeated if they wish to advance to the next stage of the Champions League. The result in the first part of the doubleheader was 2:2, meaning that a win in England would take Juve to the quarter finals.
Good news for Tottenham is that they will have a massive support from the stands at the Wembley, the venue where they lost only 2 times this season. Both of those defeats happened in the early stages of the season and the Spurs are without a home defeat in 2018. In fact, this team has won each of their previous 7 games at their turf.
Juventus
After a stoppage-time victory against Lazio last weekend in Rome, Juventus players are confident they can defeat any opponent. That game saw Dybala’s return to a phenomenal form, at the best time for his team. Juve is currently leading a two-horse race for the Serie A title against Napoli, so the fact that their most-prolific scorer is back in a good form gives their fans a lot of confidence.
But, can they build on that in the clash with Tottenham? Well, the Italian champion definitely has enough talent in the locker room. After all, this is a side that played in two previous Champions League finals.

Tottenham Hotspur vs. Juventus Match Prediction
Obviously, anything can happen in this game. Juventus need to go for a win, meaning that they’ll start the game offensively. The Spurs will need to protect their goal with all they got and look for their chances from the counter-attacks. But, if Juve manage to score, the roles will reverse! In that case, Tottenham will be those who have to attack with all they got.
So, who’s gonna be the happier side at the end? Beats me! Still, there’s one thing I’m certain about – we’re going to witness a super-exciting game on Wednesday, probably with lots of goals on both ends.
