- One or both teams failed to score in 10 of RB Leipzig's 13 home fixtures in 2024
- Juventus have conceded only one goal in their last eight matches
- Recommended bet: Both teams to score - No

Thiago Motta led Bologna to Champions League qualification in Serie A last season and he has made a solid start to his reign as Juventus manager.

The Turin giants have conceded only one goal in seven matches under Motta and that came in their impressive 3-1 home win over Dutch champions PSV Eindhoven on matchday one of the Champions League.

Wednesday's trip to RB Leipzig promises to be an intriguing contest between Juve's in-form defensive unit and exciting home forwards Lois Openda, Benjamin Sesko and Xavi Simons.

Team news

RB Leipzig have fitness doubts over Kevin Kampl and Eljif Elmas, while Assan Ouedraogo and Xaver Schlager are injured.

In-form strikers Openda and Sesko are set to lead the line. 

Juventus striker Arkadiusz Milik will be assessed, but Timothy Weah and Vasilije Adzic are sidelined for the visitors.

The stats

RB Leipzig have won only one of their last five Champions League matches.

One or both teams failed to score in 10 of Leipzig's 13 home fixtures in 2024, while they have kept four clean sheets in six matches this season.

Three of Juventus's last five matches have ended 0-0 and Juve have conceded only one goal in their last eight matches in all competitions.

Three of Juve's four wins this term were by a 3-0 margin.

Prediction

RB Leipzig conceded in the 90th minute of their 2-1 away defeat to Atletico Madrid on matchday one and they face another testing Champions League fixture on Wednesday.

Juventus are yet to concede a goal in six Serie A matches under new boss Motta, including goalless draws with Roma, in-form Empoli and leaders Napoli.

The Old Lady's home win over PSV on matchday one means they may regard a point away to Leipzig as a decent result so backing one or both teams not to score looks a good bet.

Leipzig are developing into streetwise Champions League performers, reaching the semi-finals in 2019-20 and losing in the round of 16 to Manchester City and Real Madrid in the last two seasons.

They have made a fine start to their Bundesliga campaign, keeping four clean sheets in five matches and winning 3-2 away to champions Bayer Leverkusen in their other fixtures.

However, Marco Rose's men have been held to 0-0 draws by Union Berlin and newly promoted St Pauli in two of their last three league games and another cagey contest is expected when they attempt to break down Juve's brick wall of a defence.
