Juventus Women will entertain Lyon Women at the Juventus Stadium on matchday two of the UEFA Women's Champions League on Thursday (October 27).
The hosts got their campaign off to a solid start with a 2-0 win at Zurich last week, thanks to second-half goals from Barbara Bonansea and Valentina Cernoia. Juventus failed to carry that momentum in the Serie A against AC Milan on Saturday, though. Milan scored three goals in the first half and eventually won 4-3.
Lyon, meanwhile, got their title defence off to a slow start, as they were humbled 5-1 at home by Arsenal. It was a shock defeat for the French team and snapped their winning start to the season..
