It's almost time for a great event for the European soccer. The
Champions League Quarter Final first leg between
Juventus and
Barcelona is coming ! It's 32 matches that the zebras win while playing at its stadium and this is something that
Luis Enrique and his players know very well and think about it.
Listening to their press conferences We think that
Allegri and
Buffon showed a bit of worries but also a great concentration and focus on this match and these are 2 very important characteristic in this kind of situation. Obviously the most feared are the magic trio
Neymar,
Messi and
Suarez but on the other hands the Italians know that Barcelona might lack of some defensive skills pointed out as their biggest weakness and it's on this point that
Juventus will have to insist in order to win over their opponents.
Buffon never got a goal by
Messi so definitely
Lionel will be even more " hungry " of goals if that is even possible. The 2 teams faced each other few times especially in the recent stories but there are only 2 players that played example the Berlin's final match and also the tactical assets are pretty different now so it's gonna be a complete new match.
Dybala and
Higuain are the biggest fear for Barcelona plus the amazing defensive abilities of Juventus.
We believe that Juventus can make a positive result in this home match but they must take a lead if they want to have some chances. Being completely honest and also after watching very well the
Italian Serie A and
Italian cup matches against
Napoli and
Chievo WE think that
Juventus will not make it this time unless they get a good lead in the first match because the
bianconeri are very good in organizing an strong defensive line and that is what they could do in the 2nd leg in case.
We will definitely support Juventus as Italian team but we won't be much money on them.
It's also true that
Barcelona will face this match right after an awful defeat in the
Liga for
2-0 against
Malaga but that was probably just an accident. Barcelona is also missing
Busquets,
Vidal,
Rafinha and Turan.
Juventus got back
Mandzukic and the only doubts are about
Pjanic and
Dani Alves (that would be a big EX in this match).
It's also true that
Barcelona doesn't seem in a great shape but in
Champions League the team plays in a complete different way plus they are full of the last european match won against
PSG for
6-1. Only even thinking of winning with this result against a team that has players like
Cavani,
Verratti,
Di Maria,
Drexler,
Marquinhos,
Thiago Silva,
Pastore, etc.and especially after losing the first leg for 4-0 it was considered as a crazy thing.
This competition is something very hard to make predictions on because it's a completely different kind of motivations that you must put and show here.
Good Luck Juventus !!
