Bodo/ Glimt - Manchester City

Two teams that have been very productive in recent games. Although the first games in the Champions League knock-outs are not usually very high-scoring, in this match we can expect attacking football from Turkey. Galatasaray likes to attack and often concedes with a weak defense, while Juventus' recent results show that the team is favorable to high-scoring games.

The Champions League is back and the knockout stage begins. Galatasaray welcomes Juventus in the early match and I think BTS. Gala will give a good fight at home to Juve, as their team is full of talented attackers and in this year's edition of the CL, they have scored against both Liverpool and Atletico at home. Add to that the fact that Juventus' defense has not been in top form, with 9 goals conceded in their last 4 matches, and it seems likely that the Turkish club will make their mark. As for Juve themselves, it's clear that they are the favorites in this match, as under Spalletti they have shown a great attacking game and have been scoring quite often. But they also have some games where they struggle to score, such as their recent loss against Inter. Overall, Juve's performances have been attractive, even when playing with 10 men. Personally, I think a 1-1 or 1-2 result is realistic here.

The Turks have a different beast at home and in my eyes, they have all the chances to resist or even defeat Peru. Peru has not reached Atletico and experienced defeat against Liverpool. Galatasaray often played their most solid matches against high-level teams. Juventus has been on an unsteady wave lately and their results have been very unstable, their defense seems weakened, which is excellent news for a team like Galatasaray.
