Leicester City U21 and Juventus U21 kick off their Premier League International Cup campaigns this Wednesday at the Leicester City Training Ground. It will be the first-ever competitive meeting between the two sides, and with only the top two teams in each group advancing to the knockout stage, early points carry extra weight.
Leicester U21 team overview
Leicester have made an impressive start to the 2025/26 Premier League 2 season. Leon McSweeney’s side remain unbeaten after three matches, collecting wins against Liverpool U21 (4-2) and Derby U21 (2-0) while being held to a goalless draw by Reading U21. That return of seven points from a possible nine, combined with a goal difference of six scored and two conceded, reflects a confident, well-balanced start.

Juventus U21 team overview
Juventus U21’s domestic campaign in Campionato Primavera 1 has been less convincing. They opened the season with a 2-2 draw against Sassuolo before falling 3-1 to Frosinone. However, the Bianconeri responded last weekend with their first win of the new season, edging Cremonese 1-0. They sit mid-table with four points from their opening three fixtures.

Prediction
The opening round of the Premier League International Cup is always tricky to call, especially when the teams have no prior history. Leicester’s early-season form - seven points from nine and goals in two of three matches - suggests a confident, well-drilled side. Juventus have managed only one win from their three domestic outings, but they have scored in every game so far, indicating attacking consistency. This should be a closely contested fixture, and both teams finding the net seems a realistic possibility.
Three reasons we expect BTTS
- Leicester U21 have scored six goals in their three league fixtures so far, showing a balanced attacking approach.
- Juventus U21 have found the net in all three of their league outings this season.
- Given both sides’ form and the travel and adjustment factor for Juventus, a low-scoring draw - 1-1 - seems the most plausible outcome.
