At 4 a.m. Beijing time on December 12, in the 6th round of the Champions League stage, Juventus hosted Manchester City.
Juventus vs Manchester City, the highlights of the match are as follows:
First:Situation of both teams! After the first 5 rounds of the Champions League, Juventus and Manchester City both have 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, accumulating 8 points, Manchester City ranks 20th with 6 goal differences, and Juventus ranks 22nd with 2 goal differences. Manchester City are fourth in the Premier League and Juventus are sixth in Serie A, but are unbeaten in the league. In the last game, Juventus drew 2-2 at home to Bologna, and the team has drawn 7 of the last 9 games, falling into a draw circle; Manchester City drew 2-2 away at Crystal Palace, with only one win in the last nine games in all competitions, and the backline is shaky, and it is still not good without a midfielder, but Kovacic has returned and is on the list of players.
Second:The unbeaten Serie A meets the trough of the blue moon, Kovacic returns, and Manchester City wants to grab points! Manchester City are coming to an end of the waistless team, Mateo Kovacic has returned, and with Kevin De Bruyne returning to fitness, Manchester City's form has picked up. Juve have not been strong in attack this season and have drawn a lot. Serie A teams are tested by the rhythm of the Premier League, and Manchester City's away game against Juventon will be mainly counter-attacked, with offense replacing defense. Both teams are low in the rankings and will have to grab points to move up the rankings, so this game will be a hot battle, especially Manchester City will aim to get three points. With Kevin De Bruyne and Mateo Kovacic, Haaland's role will be enhanced. Considering the rhythm of Juve's game, this campaign is optimistic that Manchester City will take away three points away, end the embarrassing 6-game winless away game in all competitions, and work hard for the Champions League stage to fight for eight direct promotion.
The two sides have met four times, with Juventus winning two and drawing two, remaining unbeaten.
Injuries on both sides: Juventus haveMilik, Bremer, Cabal, Cambiaso (doubtful), Gonzalez (doubtful); Manchester City hasRodri, Bob, Ake, Stones, Akanji。
