After three consecutive wins in Serie A, Juventus is gaining momentum and will seek a first win in the Champions League this season. The "Old Lady" needs urgent points, if the team is to stay in the tournament, but tonight`s opponent is definitely not an easy one to defeat. An eventual win for Real, will secure the team a place in 1/8 finals of the tournament.
Juventus is performing really successfully in recent years in their matches against Real Madrid. The Italians have won their last four home matches against Real Madrid, but this season they still are not playing at the required level for the Champions League. Now, however, Juventus have a good chance to make it up to their supporters. Real Madrid faces some serious problems in defense lately, as the team has conceded 7 goals in its last 3 games.
The team of Real Madrid is unstoppable in the Champions League so far and has scored at least 2 goals in 7 of its last 8 games of the tournament. Only Cristiano Ronaldo already has on his account 7 goals scored for the 3 rounds played of this season.
In view of the offensive power of both teams and especially that of Real, as well as the problems in defense for the guests, we can expect a match with the a lot of goals.
