Juventus vs Lyon prediction and preview

Although Juventus won the Serie A title, their stuttering finish towards the Scudetto saw them lose three of their last four league games, including a 3-1 defeat against AS Roma on the final day of the season. Juventus are still in the hunt for their first European Cup since 1996 and the Old Lady has been knocked out at the quarter-final stage in their previous two seasons. Lyon recently made their return to competitive football against PSG in the Coupe de la Ligue final. However, Rudi Garcia's side eventually lost out on penalties against the Ligue 1 champions. Our Juventus vs Lyon prediction is that Juventus will win the game 2-0 and progress through to the quarter-finals of the competition.
