Juventus head coach Thiago Motta admitted that he will be following his former club Bologna’s performance in their Champions League match against Liverpool, but he emphasized that his full attention is on Juventus’s away game against RB Leipzig.
Both Bologna and Juventus are scheduled to play their Champions League matches on Wednesday at 8 PM local time, with each playing away against Liverpool and RB Leipzig respectively. Motta helped Bologna secure fifth place in Serie A last season, which was enough for the team to qualify for the Champions League. After the season, he left Bologna to replace Allegri as the head coach of Juventus.
At the pre-match press conference, Motta expressed his hope for his former club’s success. He said, “Of course, I hope Bologna wins, but I am only focused on Juventus. We have an important match ahead, and we must give it our all. We need to perform well to achieve the best result.”
In the first round of the Champions League, Bologna drew 0-0 at home against Shakhtar Donetsk, while Juventus secured a 3-1 victory over PSV at home.
