St. Polten vs Juventus prediction
St. Polten earned their first point of this season's league phase on Matchday 4, coming from two goals down to draw 2-2 with Valerenga in Norway, and since then the Austrian side have scored ten goals in their two domestic fixtures.
The odds are still very much stacked against them when it comes to making it out of the league phase, but they will have gained plenty of confidence from recent results and will certainly not fear their opponents here.
Having taken a shock 3-0 lead against OL Lyonnes on Matchday 4, Juventus were looking primed for a famous victory against the eight-time winners, but the French side responded with three goals of their own in the second half to ensure it was honours even in Biella.
The Italian side drew 1-1 with fellow UEFA Women's Champions League participants Roma in Serie A Femminile on Saturday, and are currently unbeaten in the their last five games across all competitions.
Victory here would put Juventus in a strong position when it comes to finishing in the top eight, and they should have too much quality for the hosts. Expect a fast start from Juve, who we expect to be leading at both half-time and full-time.
