Malmö vs Juventus prediction, preview, team news and more | UEFA Champions League 2021-22

The UEFA Champions League returns to action on Tuesday when Malmö and Juventus square off in Group H at the Swedbank Stadion.

Both sides are without a win in their last three outings and will be looking to end this dry spell.

Malmö’s slump in form continued last Saturday when they were held to a 1-1 draw against IFK Norrköping in the Swedish Allsvenskan.

Following a goalless first half, Adi Nalic and Samuel Adegbenro scored for either side in the second half to force a share of the spoils.

Prior to that, they suffered a 2-1 defeat against Ludogorets Razgrad in the Champions League qualifiers before losing 2-1 against Hammarby IF back at home.

With 34 points from 18 league outings, Tuesday’s hosts are third in the Swedish Allsvenskan.

Meanwhile, Juventus’ poor start to the new season continued last time out when they fell to a 2-1 defeat against Napoli.

After heading into the break with a one-goal lead, second-half goals from Matteo Politano and Kalidou Koulibaly helped the Azzurri turn the tie around.

Juventus are now winless in their three games this season and will be desperate to get their season up and running with all three points on Tuesday.
