Mario Mandzukic starts for Juventus against Young Boys, and history suggests it’s a good omen for the Bianconeri if he scores.
Coach Massimiliano Allegri has gone for a 3-5-2 system against the Swiss champions, with Paulo Dybala partnering the Croatian up-front.
If Mandzukic finds the back of the net it would be his 39th goal for the Old Lady, and things tend to go in her favour when he scores.
The 32-year-old’s brace against Napoli was the 35th game in which he’s scored at least once, and Juve have won 34 of those matches.

The 32-year-old’s brace against Napoli was the 35th game in which he’s scored at least once, and Juve have won 34 of those matches.
That equates to around a 97 per cent win rate when Mandzukic is on the score sheet, with the only defeat coming to Real Madrid in the 2017 Champions League final.
The striker made it 1-1 in Cardiff with a stunning overhead kick, but the Bianconeri collapsed in the second half and were beaten 4-1.
