Juventus will be looking for their first points in Group H when they host Maccabi Haifa on Matchday 3 of the Champions League this Wednesday.
The Bianconeri have failed to collect a point after losing 2-1 to Paris Saint-Germain in France and then 2-1 at home to Portuguese giants Benfica in the first two matches of the 2022/23 edition. Their Israeli opponents have also lost both of their fixtures so far and this should come as a great opportunity for La Vecchia Signora to get their campaign on track.
Juventus v Maccabi Haifa: Predicted line-ups
Juventus still have Federico Chiesa and Paul Pogba as long-term absentees due to their respective injuries, but coach Massimiliano Allegri will be able to bring back Wojciech Szczesny for his first Champions League appearance of the campaign, and Manuel Locatelli will also return from a brief stint on the sidelines.
Maccabi Haifa coach Barak Bakhar does not have any notable absentees and will have a full-strength team to choose from. However, he will demand an improved performance from his team after their defeats in the opening two matchdays.
Juventus predicted XI v Maccabi Haifa (3-5-2): Szczesny; Danilo, Bonucci, Bremer; Cuadrado, Di Maria, Paredes, Locatelli, Kostic; Milik, Vlahovic.
