Juventus v Malmo FF
Competition: Uefa Champions League
Match date: 16 September 2014
Kick Off Time: - 19:45 GMT
Juventus are starting their uefa Champions League campaign against Malmo at home. The Old Lady have won the domestic Serie A three times in a row, but the results in the Europe weren't satisfying. Juventus are favorites for winning the group with Atletico Madrid, Malmo and Olympiakos Piraeus as their opponents. New head coach Massimiliano Allegri enjoyed a good start in the domestic Serie A with victories against Chievo away from home and Udinese at home. The defense of the team was spotless not allowing a single goal on those matches. Here are the results:
13.09.2014. Juventus - Udinese 2:0
30.08.2014. Chievo - Juventus 0:1
30.08.2014. Chievo - Juventus 0:1
The coach Massimiliano Allegri has trouble with injured players ahead of this match. The likes of Arturo Vidal, Andrea Pirlo and Giorgio Chiellini all missed the weekend's game and they will probably miss this match too. Andrea Barzagli was an unused substitute and he is still doubtful.
Malmo are the first Swedish representatives in the Champions League since the season 2000/01. They are probably having the toughest group with Juventus and Atletico Madrid almost certain of proceeding to the next round. The side are the leading team in Allsvenskan and they are very close for winning the title. In the qualification round of the Champions League, Malmo have beaten Ventspils, Sparta Prague and Salzburg. The most notable victory was against strong Austrians. Malmo were completely outplayed on the first match, they were losing 2:0, but managed to score after big mistake of Salzburg defenders. In the second leg Malmo won 3:0 and secured the progress. Markus Rosenberg was the hero on that match with two goals scored, while the third was scored by Magnus Eriksson. However, it remains the fact that Malmo played bad on their away matches, winning only against poor Ventspils. They have lost both other matches and both matches were high scoring. Here are the results:
19.08.2014. Salzburg - Malmo 2:1
29.07.2014. Sparta Prague - Malmo 4:2
29.07.2014. Sparta Prague - Malmo 4:2
