The Serie A side have won two of its three Champions League group matches, with victories over PSV Eindhoven and RB Leipzig. Juventus also enter this clash against LOSC with positive momentum after a weekend win over Udinese Calcio.

What did Khéphren Thuram say about LOSC Lille?
Juventus midfielder Khéphren Thuram spoke to the media on Monday to discuss the matchup. The Frenchman, who has played against Les Dogues in Ligue 1, understands that this opponent is in good form and poses a challenge to the Italian side.
"We will encounter many challenges against Lille tomorrow," Thuram told reporters. "They’re a very good team, with a very good coach and they have a good style of play. They always try to go forward, with a front foot approach and they always want to have possession.
"They have certainly already achieved two very important results – that were perhaps unexpected before kick-off - against two great teams in Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, but they earned those points. From our point of view, we have prepared for the match as always, with respect for the opponent.
"They are confident, but we will try and get all three points and return to Turin with a positive result. Who will play in midfield tomorrow? We all have different qualities. I have certain characteristics and my teammates have others. That's why the coach can choose from game to game depending on the opponents."
