THE PREDICTION
Allegri’s Juventus were shaky to say the least at the start of the season, and although defensive lapses still remain, they have seen their results improve over the last couple of weeks. However, an injury to Paulo Dybala over the weekend against Sampdoria does not help their cause here against the reigning European champions. Chelsea’s defeat to Man City in the Premier League on Saturday was a rare blip in the road in what is an otherwise well-oiled machine under the leadership of Thomas Tuchel, and it would not be surprising to see them outclass Juventus here. The hosts no doubt possess plenty of quality of their own but Chelsea’s defensive stability combined with their ruthlessness up front is enough for us to tip them in the draw no bet market.
TIP: CHELSEA DRAW NO BET
