Juventus needed a second-half comeback to avoid defeat in Serie A play on Saturday and now turns its attention towards a crucial UEFA Champions League clash with Manchester City.
Tim Weah continued in Thiago Motta’s starting lineup on Saturday, moving back to left wing from the No. 9 position. Weah has scored four goals in 15 combined appearances this season, rebounding from an early season injury to get back to his best at club level. Juventus will certainly need Weah’s dynamic running and playmaking abilities if it wants to defeat one of Europe’s best teams.
Manchester City has struggled for consistency across all competitions this fall, opening the door for a potential three points for Juventus. The Bianconeri have won three of their last five head-to-head meetings with the Citizens and Weah will seek to continue that trend in Turin.
