Reasons for Our MLS All-Stars vs Juventus Predictions

The MLS-All Stars haven’t got a good recent record in this fixture but they did beat Tottenham in 2015 and they look extremely strong this time around. Former Juventus play-maker Sebastian Giovinco will be desperate to make an impression against his former club and the aforementioned Josef Martinez now has 24 goals in just 23 games for Atlanta. He will be playing at his home ground and the side will be managed by his boss, Gerardo Martino. The MLS does seem to be attracting better players and Juventus are still without a number of key players. There will be no Cristiano Ronaldo and Paolo Dybala is unlikely to feature. The MLS All-Stars stand a good chance of beating the Bianconeri and should be match-fit and ready to go. The first of our MLS All-Stars vs Juventus predictions is MLS All-Stars to Win and they can be backed at 11/5 with William Hill

The last few All-Stars games have seen both teams get on the score-sheet and this is likely to go the same way. This is a glorified friendly and there will be plenty of changes for both sides throughout the 90 minutes. The hosts have a number of in-form players who are lethal in front of goal whilst Juventus can still boast a line-up which includes young hot-shots Andrea Favilli and Luca Clemenza. It’s worth taking a chance on Over 3.5 Goals here and is available at 21/20 with Boylesports and should be backed in this contest. It is the second of our MLS All-Stars vs Juventus predictions.
