Player to watch – Samuel Mbangula
Samuel Mbangula was in electric form on the flank for Juventus in the Old Lady’s 2-0 win over AC Milan at the weekend, scoring once for one of his three shots against the Rossoneri.
Mbangula can shine again
Mbangula’s blend of pace and trickery could make him a nuisance again when Juventus visit Club Brugge on Tuesday. The 21-year-old has yet to start in the Champions League this season but he could get the nod in Belgium.
