GOOOOOOOOOOOOAL FOR JUVENTUS
Kean appeared after a great cross from Bernardeschi to the near post and the Italian's lethal header puts Juve on top. 

The match has cooled down, Juventus started with a good rhythm, however, Malmö managed to neutralize the home team's attacks and the ball spent more time in the midfield. 

In the first 3 head-to-head duels, Juventus won without conceding a goal. The Italians won the first home duel with 2:0. In the first two matches, the score was still goalless after 45 minutes.

In the first leg, however, Juve were already 3-0 up at halftime, with Sandro, Dybala and Morata giving the Old Lady an unassailable lead in Sweden.

So in all 3 duels both teams failed to score. In all 3 matches less than 3.5 goals were scored, 2 times less than 2.5 goals.

Juve come close! Kean comes into the game with a shot from the halfway line, but the attempt dramatically goes just wide of the post. 

This is how Juve lined up at the start of the match.

First attempt by Juventus. Dybala tried to find Kean with a cross but the visiting keeper was in a great position to get the ball. 

Juventus still have a small chance to win their group in the Champions League. The bianconeri won 4 of the first 5 games of the preliminary round, with one defeat.

It is the same record as Chelsea, against whom they lost the direct duel. Therefore, Juve will have to aim for a home win against Malmo in case the English team loses a point.

Massimiliano Allegri's team has won the last two official matches. Juventus have also won 3 of their last 4 home games (1 loss). In the last 3 home appearances, Alta Dame have conceded only 1 goal. In Serie A, Juve have recently regained 5th place, 11 points behind the leaders.

The first 45 minutes kick off at the Juventus Stadium in Turin, Juve are going for the three points as they look to take the lead. 

Malmö FF have already been eliminated from the Champions League before the last group stage match and also have no chance of finishing third.

Jon Dahl Tomasson's team could only manage 1 point in the first 5 games of the preliminary round and had to concede defeat on 4 occasions. However, the South Swedes are still unbeaten in their last 5 official matches, with 2 wins.
Malmo have won their last 3 away matches, all of which have taken place on Swedish soil. At the international level, Malmo FF is less competitive.

In the group stage, the Blues lost the first two guest matches without scoring a goal, in St. Petersburg and at Chelsea's ground. In the play-offs they were defeated by Rasgrad, in the qualifiers they were held to draws in Riga and Helsinki, and could only win away to Rangers.

This is how the eleven black and white players will start to try to stay at the top of the group. 
Perin; Alex Sandro, Bonucci, Rugain, De Winter; Arthur, Bernardeschi, Rabiot; Betancur, Dybala, Kean.

Malmö once again became the Swedish champions. The truth is that the trophy was thanks to the difference in goals scored and goals lost, which proved better than that of AIK. In the Champions League, the team lost four consecutive games without scoring a goal. Only in the last round they were able to score against Zenit and win the first point: 1:1.

Juventus can not catch up with the top four in Serie A, and then the scandal is heating up around the Club. The mood of the players does not add up. However, they won almost all the matches in the group. They even managed to beat Chelsea at home by 1-0. However, in London, Juventus suffered a crushing defeat with a score of 0:4.

The history of head-to-head encounters includes three matches. In each of them Juventus won without losing a single ball. In this case, their biggest victory was in September, in the framework of the first round of the group stage of the Champions league. Then the team scored three times already in the first half. After the break, the score remained unchanged.

The wait is over, Juventus are back in UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE action at the Juventus Stadium. Allegri's men will be looking for a win to go into the Round of 16 stage with confidence. On the other side, Malmö will be looking to defeat the Italian team and get the victory for the honor.

One of the new faces of Malmö and an important member of the Peruvian national team, Sergio Peña will be the player to watch for this match because with his arrival to the Swedish team, the midfield will look to generate a dangerous opportunity and overcome the wall imposed by Juventus. So far, he has four starts and 222 minutes played, however, Peña could be a surprise at any moment and tip the balance in favor of the visitors.   

Argentine star and Italian club standard bearer Paulo Dybala will be the player to watch for this UEFA Champions League group stage final match. So far, the forward has played 1,040 minutes in the season in which he has played 14 games as a starter, has scored 7 goals and 5 assists, and has only one yellow card. So far he has missed 6 games of the season due to muscle injuries, however, now recovered and ready for action, Dybala could tip the balance in favor of Juventus and seal the match for the opponent.

Juventus and Malmö have met on a total of three occasions (3 wins for Juventus), with the scales tipping slightly in favor of the team from Turin, Italy. Likewise, in terms of goals, it is Juventus who have the advantage, with 7 goals scored and Malmö none. Their last meeting dates back to the first matchday of the UEFA Champions League where the Italian team defeated Malmö 3-0.

For this match, Craig Pawson will be the central referee, he will be accompanied by Ian Hussin and Scott Ledger as the assistants 1 and 2 respectively, finally, Michael Salisbury will serve as the fourth referee. In the VAR, referees Michael Oliver and Dan Cook will be in charge of monitoring any dubious play inside the box or that merits a red card.

At the moment, Malmö's team has already finished its participation in this UEFA Champions League, after arriving at this match with only 1 point, which has been a draw and four defeats, also, they have only one goal for and thirteen goals against, a situation that leaves them with a difference of -12. Also, their chances of seeking a place in the Europa League are exterminated, since even if they win this match and Zenit loses their duel against Chelsea, the goal difference is leaving them automatically eliminated.

At the moment, Juventus is in second place in Group H with 12 points from 4 wins and 1 loss so far in the group stage, they have scored 9 goals for and only 6 against, a statistic that leaves them with a +3 goal difference, so they will have to go out with the will to win since Chelsea also has the same points but a goal difference of plus 9, so a combination of results and a win will be important to stay at the top of the group. Likewise, Juventus has come from less to more since it started very badly this season and now it has been gradually recovering points and climbing places.

All great moments began in a dream and there are few lucky ones who can boast in their lives that they once held the Orejona in their arms and were named "kings of Europe". The dream resumes for 32 teams seeking to engrave their name in eternal glory, but to do so, they will have to overcome a long road full of obstacles to reach the main event, St. Petersburg, and have the honor of being crowned as the new champions of the old continent. In Group "H", Juventus will be looking for the overall group leadership when they host Malmö, a team already eliminated from this competition.

The Juventus vs Malmö match will be played at Juventus Stadium, in Turin, Italy. The kick-off is scheduled at 12:45 pm ET.
