Currently, the Bianconeri have six points to their name while Serhiy Rebrov's Ferencvaros are on par with Dynamo Kyiv, who have accumulated a single point in the campaign.

Apart from their 2-0 loss to Barcelona, Juventus won both their UCL fixtures with great ease. With table-toppers Barcelona not that far away, Juventus will be looking at this fixture to grab three easy points in an attempt to catch up with the Spanish giants. However, Juventus might find it difficult to top the group given Barcelona's flawless record.

Ferencvaros, on the other hand, have had a very good run in their domestic season. They are unbeaten in the league and have only lost two games across all competitions. Their two losses came in the UCL group matches against Barcelona and Juventus.

However, the Hungarian side has not been able to tighten up their defence against these big teams. Conceding four against Pirlo's Juventus, they then conceded five against Barcelona, making it nine goals conceded in two UCL games. They also drew 2-2 against Dynamo Kyiv – thanks to Franck Boli's 90th-minute equalizer which helped them claim their first point of the ongoing UCL campaign.

Juventus vs Ferencvaros prediction
With Ferencvaros's poor defensive record in the Champions League which saw them concede a staggering 11 goals in 3 games, fans can expect their defence to leak a few more. With Juventus' attacking depth at Pirlo's disposal, we expect the Italian giants to win by a 2-goal margin.
