Juventus aim to build on their first Champions League win of the season and move ahead of Pafos in the race for a top-24 finish. They come off a 2-1 defeat to Napoli in Serie A, ending a three-game winning streak. Juventus have scored and conceded at least ten goals in the UCL this season and are seeking a third consecutive home European win for the first time since 2018.
Pafos are unbeaten in their last seven matches, including a 4-0 league win on Friday. In the UCL, they have a solid defense, with clean sheets in two of their first three away matches, including a surprise 1-0 win over Villarreal and a 2-2 draw with Monaco.
This is the first meeting between the clubs, though Juventus have won all six European matches against Cypriot teams by a combined 25-3. Key players include Juventus’ Jonathan David and Pafos’ Anderson Silva, who has won in 23 of his last 23 goalscoring appearances.
