The Match: Juventus vs NEC Nijmegen Preview

Juventus open their 2026/27 Europa League campaign at home against NEC Nijmegen, a Dutch Eredivisie club making a rare appearance on the European stage against one of the competition’s traditional heavyweights.

Spalletti’s Juventus: a statement start to Europe

Luciano Spalletti’s Juventus will want to make home advantage count from the first whistle of their league-phase campaign, using the extra depth in the squad to rotate while still sending a message to the rest of the Europa League field.

NEC Nijmegen: the underdog’s European adventure

NEC Nijmegen, based at De Goffert in the eastern Netherlands, arrive in Turin as clear underdogs on paper but with nothing to lose — a trip to face Juventus at the Allianz Stadium is exactly the kind of occasion Dutch clubs relish springing a surprise on.

With no shared history between the clubs, this is a clean slate of a fixture — and a great opportunity for neutral fans and Juventus supporters alike to see a new opponent at home.

Head-to-Head Record

Juventus and NEC Nijmegen have no recorded competitive meetings before this fixture — it’s a first-ever encounter between the two clubs, brought together by the 2026/27 Europa League league-phase draw.

First meeting: With no prior history to draw on, this one is a clean slate — the first chapter of whatever head-to-head record follows.

Getting to the Allianz Stadium

The Allianz Stadium sits in the north of Turin, a little way from the centre, so public transport is the smart choice on matchday. The easiest route is Turin’s Metro Line 1 (direction Fermi) to Bernini, then the special matchday Tram 9 that runs directly to the stadium. Alternatively, daily buses 62, 72 and 75 and tram 3 serve the stadium area. If you’re arriving by train at Torino Porta Nuova or Porta Susa, take the metro (direction Fermi) to Bernini and change for Tram 9 there. There’s a large on-site car park (around €10 per match) if you must drive, but traffic around the stadium is heavy before and after the game.

Matchday travel tip: The Tram 9 service from Bernini is the simplest way in and out, but queues build quickly after full time — allow extra time, or walk part of the way back towards the metro to beat the crowds.

How to get to Juventus Allianz Stadium from Turin city centre

Where to Sit: Stadium Sector Plan

The Allianz Stadium is a compact, English-style ground with the stands right on top of the pitch and no running track, giving it one of the best atmospheres in Italy. Behind the goals are the two curves: the Curva Sud is the home of Juventus’s most passionate ultras and the loudest singing, while the Curva Nord sits opposite. The long sidelines are the Tribuna Est and Tribuna Ovest, which offer the best all-round views of the play and the premium and hospitality seating. Visiting supporters are allocated a dedicated away sector — check your ticket carefully for the correct entrance.

Note: The Curva Sud is the Juventus ultras’ end and isn’t recommended for visiting or neutral fans. Away supporters should sit only in the designated away sector, and segregation and stewarding are strictly enforced.

Where to Stay in Turin

Turin is an elegant, walkable city, and most visiting fans base themselves centrally and travel up to the stadium by metro and shuttle. The historic centre around Piazza Castello and Via Roma puts you among the grand piazzas, cafés and museums. Around Torino Porta Nuova station you’re on the main transport hub with a direct metro link towards the stadium — ideal for an easy matchday. And the Quadrilatero Romano is the buzziest area for aperitivo, bars and restaurants after the game. Use the interactive map below to compare hotels and apartments across these areas:

Getting Around & Sightseeing

Turin is compact and easy to navigate on foot or by public transport — the city runs on a single metro line plus a dense tram and bus network (run by GTT) — contactless and paper tickets both work, and it’s cheap. The city’s airport, Torino-Caselle, is connected to the centre by train and bus in around 30–40 minutes. With the Alps as a backdrop, Turin rewards a full weekend: baroque architecture, world-class museums, and Italy’s café and chocolate capital.

Getting around: A single metro line plus trams and buses cover the city, and the stadium is reached via Bernini and the matchday shuttle. For sightseeing, most of Turin’s headline sights are walkable within the historic centre.

Things to Do Around the Game

In town for the match? Make a weekend of it. Turin is one of Italy’s most underrated city breaks — the Mole Antonelliana and its National Cinema Museum, the Egyptian Museum (one of the world’s finest), the Royal Palace, historic cafés and the Alpine views. Pre-booked, skip-the-line tickets save you queueing time. Here are a few of our favourite experiences to build your non-football hours around:

Tip: Turin’s big attractions — the Egyptian Museum and the Mole especially — sell timed-entry tickets that go quickly at weekends, so lock in your must-see slots when you book your match tickets.
