Tipster’s Angel

Despite the fact that they are 2-1 down on aggregate, Juventus are more likely to win this match considering their recent form at home. And also, this is expected to be a low-scoring thriller as it has been in the past head to head matches.

Tip: Juventus To Win @ 1.50

In the last three head to head matches, Juventus have won two and lost just one match. As Porto had the home advantage in the first leg, they successfully beat Juventus 2-1. But a team with top-class quality, Juventus are more likely to bounce back in the second leg. The first leg loss was the only loss for Juventus in the last five matches in all competitions. Also, Juventus are unbeaten in their last five home matches in all competitions. Whereas Porto have won just three matches in their last five matches in all competitions. Porto has three draws and two wins in their last five away matches across all competitions. The form that Juventus are in, they should win this match quite comfortably at 1.50 odds available at the Dafabet sportsbook.

Tip: Juventus Total Goals Over 1.5 @ 1.57

Juventus are in top-notch form as they have netted 51 goals in 25 Serie A matches at an average of over two goals per match. Also, they have scored 15 goals in the seven Champions League matches at an average of just over two goals. Juventus have scored over 1.5 goals in four of their last five matches in the Champions League. Juventus also have scored over 1.5 goals in three of their last four matches in all competitions. Apart from that, they have scored 11 goals in their last five home matches at an average of just over two goals per match. Also over 1.5 goals have come in four of those five matches. So it is more likely that Juventus will score at least two goals at 1.57 odds available at the Betway sportsbook.

Conclusion

Juventus are more likely to cut the deficit of one goal from the first leg and advance to the next leg. On the other hand, Porto have to do something out of the ordinary to hold Juventus to under one goal or score at least a couple, which is not impossible but a difficult task.
