Juventus vs Manchester United: Champions League preview | Predictions, betting tips, live stream, TV, tickets

Juventus vs Manchester United
Uefa Champions League 2018/19
Venue: Juventus Stadium
Date: Wednesday, 7 November
Kick-off: 8pm BST

Cristiano Ronaldo will get another chance to score against his former club as Juventus and Manchester United face off in Turin on Wednesday night.

Juve star Ronaldo could not find the net on his Old Trafford return in matchday 3, but Paulo Dybala's goal handed the Italian champions a richly deserved 1-0 victory in Manchester to take control of Group H.

With Juve almost certain to top the group, Jose Mourinho knows United - second in the table with four points (two ahead of Valencia) - are playing for the runners-up spot. Although a defeat could see the Red Devils slip out of the qualification spots with two games to play, United still have a last-16 spot in their hands at this point.
