Latest Juventus vs Benfica squad information
The Allianz Stadium is abuzz with excitement ahead of the big clash between Juventus and Benfica, but behind the spotlight are calculations and personnel issues that both teams cannot afford to ignore. Juventus are facing a crisis in attack. Coach Thiago Motta's decision to drop Kolo Muani has put them in a difficult position, while Vlahovic's confidence is also wavering. Nico Gonzalez will probably play the role of "false 9" again, a gamble of Motta.
Fortunately, Yildiz and Conceicao have recovered from their injuries, bringing hope to Juventus's attack. However, the trio of Milik, Cabal and Bremer have not been able to return, putting more burden on their teammates. This could be a big challenge for Juventus, as they have to face the problem of force and need to calculate to bring the best result against a strong opponent like Benfica.
On the other side of the front line, Benfica are full of confidence and a thirst for "revenge". Vangelis Pavlidis, with his recent historic hat-trick, will certainly bring many challenges to Juventus' defense. The presence of Di Maria, who just had the opportunity to reunite with his old team and former teammate Motta, makes the match even more interesting.
However, coach Bruno Lage also faced difficulties without Gouveia, Sanches, Carreras and Cabral. The absence of key players forced him to make adjustments and arrange reasonable tactics. This was a competition not only between the players on the field, but also a brain-teasing battle between both coaches.
Will Juventus solve their striker crisis? Will Pavlidis be able to show his fearsome goalscoring form to bring victory to Benfica? The answer will only be revealed after 90 dramatic minutes at the Allianz Stadium. Both fans and football lovers are eagerly waiting.

Latest football commentary on Juventus vs Benfica
Despite having 12 points after 7 rounds, Juventus is struggling to regain the image of a giant in Europe. The number of 16 draws since the beginning of the season, plus only one win in the last 5 matches, clearly reflects the unconvincing performance of Thiago Motta and his team. The defeat to Napoli also marked the first defeat of the "Old Lady" in Serie A, causing increasing anxiety among the fan community.
The continuous loss of points not only makes Juventus's position shaky, but also drags coach Motta's winning rate to the lowest level in the history of the team. The fear increases when Juventus has to face Benfica, a team they often lose to. In 8 encounters, "The Old Lady" has suffered 6 defeats, second only to Real Madrid in the number of times they have lost in the European Cup arena.
In contrast to Juventus' instability, Benfica are showing remarkable stability in the Champions League. The Portuguese team is ready to create difficulties for all opponents. With the goal of continuing their journey in the most prestigious tournament in Europe, Benfica knows that at least a win against Juventus is a must, because even a draw can make their situation uncertain.
The unfortunate defeat to Barcelona, despite Pavlidis' hat-trick, put Benfica in a difficult situation. Despite controlling the game in the first half, Benfica became the second team to lose after scoring 4 goals in the Champions League. Coach Bruno Lage and his team know that only a victory can strengthen the team's spirit and stabilize the team.
In addition to the loss to Barcelona, Benfica also lost to Sporting CP in the Taça da Liga, and suffered two more defeats in the Portuguese national championship. With many difficulties piling up, Benfica fans are eager to see their team make a strong comeback in the near future, starting with a victory against Juventus right at the Allianz Stadium.
