3 reasons why Manchester United will beat Juventus in the UEFA Champions League today

#2 The home advantage

Playing at home gives Man United an advantage

Football is a very unpredictable game, but one thing that is certain is that home advantage often counts during matches. As a result, Manchester United will definitely feel buoyant going into their UCL tie with Juventus. The Red Devils have also proven countlessly that they are not an easy side to beat at home.

This season, United has only lost once at home in the Premier League, which came in that uncharacteristic 0-3 reverse at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur. However, the club has been decent in Europe, winning against Young Boys and drawing with Valencia.

In that draw against Valencia, it was obvious that Jose Mourinho opted to play it very safe, but following a period where fans have called for attacking football, the Portuguese will have no choice than to allow his players play with freedom on Tuesday night.

Juventus have a good team, but it will still be a daunting task to pick up three points in front of an Old Trafford crowd. That doesn’t happen quite often and it is likely to remain when the Red Devils face the Old Lady. Not many teams come to Old Trafford and win and psychologically this plays to Man United’s advantage.
