Tactical Preview
Juventus are expected to deploy a 3-5-2 setup, focusing on defensive solidity and counterattacks through Federico Chiesa and Dušan Vlahović. Allegri’s team will look to dominate midfield with Manuel Locatelli dictating tempo and Adrien Rabiot providing box-to-box energy.
Sporting CP will stick to their trademark 3-4-3 formation. Amorim’s side excels at pressing high and using quick vertical passes to exploit space behind defenders. The front trio of Pedro Gonçalves, Marcus Edwards, and Viktor Gyökeres will aim to stretch Juve’s backline.
