Juventus Face NEC in Europa League Opener

The official Juventus squad has been selected to face NEC Nijmegen on Thursday, September 16, at the Allianz Stadium. Following a recent loss to Sassuolo where they showed resilience late in the game, fans expect Juve to bounce back with a strong performance as they begin their high-stakes Europa League campaign. While NEC arrives without a win in three consecutive matches and has struggled recently across all competitions, Juventus holds significant advantages including playing at home and being unbeaten in eight of their last nine European fixtures. There have been no previous meetings between the clubs, giving Juve an opportunity to earn bragging rights for this inaugural fixture.
