Juventus U19 vs Manchester City U19 Betting Tips

Juventus U19 have struggled so far in the UEFA Youth League. They have only won one of their opening four matches in Group D, with that victory over Borussia Monchengladbach U19 being joined by defeats to Manchester City, Sevilla, and Borussia Monchengladbach.

This leaves them four points adrift of 2^nd placed Sevilla, and with just two games remaining they need a win to stand any chance of catching them.

Overall, they have won three and lost two of their last five matches, results which leave them in 3^rd position in the Campionato Nazionale Primavera table, one point behind Fiorentina U19 and Virtus Entella U19 in 1^st and 2^nd place.

Manchester City have been much more successful in the UEFA Youth League, winning three and drawing one of their four games. The only time they have slipped up is in a 1-1 draw at home to Sevilla U19.

A win on Wednesday would see them all but cement the top spot in Group D, as they hold a three point advantage over Sevilla and are five goals better off in the goal difference department.

Manchester City U19 were comprehensive in their win over Juventus U19 when they met in September. They beat the visitors 4-1 despite going behind in the 9^th minute, with four different scorers highlighting Manchester City’s strength in depth.

I think Manchester City U19’s extra quality and good form, as well as the promise of a top of the group finish in the UEFA Youth League, will be enough to push them on to victory in Turin. Odds of 5/4 for a Manchester City U19 win look really good value as well, so I’m backing that along with a 2-1 correct score prediction at 10/1.
