Preview: AS Monaco vs Juventus Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | UEFA Champions League 2025-26

The Bianconeri emerged victorious when these sides last met.
AS Monaco are now going to lock horns against Juventus for their round 8 league phase contest of the 2025-26 UEFA Champions League. This is going to be an interesting contest between these clubs, taking place at Stade Louis II.
Les Rouge et Blanc will be at home, but it is not going to make things any easier for them. They have won two of their seven league phase games in the UCL this season and are most likely to be part of the play-offs qualifiers, as with only one game remaining, the direct qualification is out of question for them.
The Old Lady have won three of their seven Champions League games this season and still have a chance to qualify directly for the knockout stage of the tournament. They have performed well in their last two matches and will look to continue their winning streak. Juventus are coming in after taking down Napoli in their league contest and will be fully confident for their next outing despite being away from home.
