Juventus lost their last friendly match to Nuremberg and will clearly be aiming to make up for this setback. The "Old Lady" will focus on securing a victory and is likely to field their strongest lineup. Brest, on the other hand, has looked weak in their recent friendlies.
Juventus
Juventus had a commendable season in Serie A last year and even managed to challenge Inter for the title for a while, but eventually lost pace. Ultimately, the “Old Lady” finished in third place – a very respectable result given the circumstances. This summer, Thiago Motta took over as head coach, and under his leadership, Juventus lost their last friendly match 0-3 to Nuremberg.

Brest
Brest had an outstanding season last year, exceeding all the boldest expectations of their fans. From the start of the season, the “Pirates” surged into the Champions League zone and eventually finished third, earning a direct spot in Europe’s top club competition. In their last friendly match, Brest lost 0-1 to Napoli.

Prediction
Our expert pick:
Juventus will likely field a near full-strength squad from the start today, with the season set to kick off in just a few weeks. Clearly, after the failure against Nuremberg, the "Old Lady" will play aggressively in attack, but there are still defensive issues that Brest will surely take advantage of.
We believe the match will be high-scoring. Our prediction is over 2.5 goals, with odds of 1.97.
Place a bet on the line of 1xBet with odds of 1.97.
