The Champions League has finally returned for the 2022/2023 season and European giants PSG and Juventus will face-off in game-week one.
The Italian side, who haven’t won the competition since 1996, will be eager to avenge their poor showing last year, which saw them get knocked out in the round of 16 by a resilient Villareal side.
Juventus head into the clash with an unbeaten record in Serie A after five games, but 3 of these results have been draws.

PSG have had a seriously impressive start to the season, sitting in first place after the first five games, and their deadly attacking trio of Mbappe, Neymar and Messi already boast a collective record of 17 goals and 12 assists so far this campaign.
Despite achieving domestic success year on year, the Parisians are yet to win Europe’s biggest competition, with their only appearance in the final ending in a 1-0 loss to Bayern Munich in 2020.
Christophe Galtier will be hoping his team can finally win the trophy that has continued to evade them.
