Barcelona vs Juventus
Pre-season 2022-23
Date: Wednesday, 27 July 2022
Kick-off at 01:30 UK/ 02:30 CET
Venue: Cotton Bowl.
The Catalans have truly arrived under Xavi, and with some great signings as well it seems that the club will be gunning for all of the trophies on offer this season. They will try their luck against Italian heavyweights Juventus this Wednesday.
It was a season to forget for Barca, as not only did they get eliminated in the group stages of the Champions League but they also had to take part in the Europa League which was considered to be a demotion for them.
However, they were successful in bringing the reigning FIFA Best Player Robert Lewandowski and they also made some huge signings in the names of Ousmane Dembele, Rafinha etc. And rumor is ripe that Jules Kounde will also arrive at the Nou Camp in order to put an end to their defensive woes.
Under Xavi they have been finding the back of the net in plenty and just this last match-day they had a confidence-boosting win against arch-rivals and 14-time European champions Real Madrid.
Fans all over the world are happy to watch the rise of this once proud Spanish team, and their El Clasico rivalry.
Meanwhile Juventus are also trying their absolute best to find their glory days back. They did finish 4th in the Italian topflight the last season and this time around their objective will really be to go for a podium finish.
However, it needs to be considered that their recent form has not at all been impressive and they have also been letting in goals in huge numbers.
As things stand it is expected that the in-form Barcelona will continue their impressive run with another win this Tuesday.

The Catalans just registered a dominant 1-0 win against arch-rivals Real Madrid and they really are high on confidence. They have been finding the back of the net at a good rate lately and they also have a good head-to-head record against this rival over the years.
The Old Lady, who have been going through a rather poor stretch of performances, will find it hard to put a stop to the run of Xavi’s men.
