Häcken host Juventus on 30 September 2026 at 19:45 in the second round of the UEFA Women's Champions League at Hisingen Arena in Gothenburg. Both teams enter this fixture pointless after opening defeats, making this a must-win clash in the 18-team league phase where only the top four advance directly to the quarter-finals.
Häcken lost 0-1 away to Inter in their opening match despite playing at home level, then recovered with a 3-0 domestic win over Eskilstuna. Juventus suffered a heavier blow, conceding twice after the break to lose 1-2 at home to Benfica after taking the lead. The Turin side did navigate qualifying by beating St. Pölten, so they carry European pedigree into this contest.
Neither team can afford another defeat without seriously damaging their knockout hopes. Juventus may adopt a cautious setup following their Benfica loss, but Häcken's home advantage and domestic form suggest they will press for an early goal. The pressure on both sides to attack creates space at the back.
Form and Head to Head
Häcken's last ten matches show eight wins, one draw, and one loss, averaging 3.10 goals for and 0.40 against. Juventus have won six of their last ten, drawn three, and lost one, averaging 1.60 goals for and 0.70 against. The Swedish side's defensive record is significantly stronger, while Häcken's attacking output nearly doubles Juventus's.

Juventus show a draw profit of 9.02 but a Match Winner win profit of -1.09, indicating backing their victory has cost money. Both teams' goal-scoring patterns suggest an open match rather than a cagey one.
Best Bet
Both teams to score — Yes. Häcken must attack to avoid a second consecutive defeat at home, while Juventus cannot sit deep for 90 minutes without risking elimination from the tournament. Häcken's attacking average of 3.10 goals per game and Juventus's defensive vulnerability (0.70 goals conceded per match) create the conditions for both sides to find the net.
