Juventus vs Real Madrid Preview

Almost a year ago these two sides clashed in the Final of the Champions League with Gianluigi Buffon’s Juve hoping to end their Champions League final misery and Real Madrid hoping to become the first team in the modern era to retain the trophy.

In the end, it was the Spaniards who made it two consecutive Champions League wins and this match offers both team another chance to make it to the final.

The Old Ladies started the season poorly, but they have recovered well in the second half and they are on course to win another Coppa Italia and Scudetto while they would want a much needed Champions League trophy too.

Their 3-1 win over Milan at the weekend makes it 25 consecutive games without a defeat, and they have 21 wins from those matches.

Real Madrid have almost given up hopes of retaining their La Liga crown as they are already 13 points behind Barcelona in 3^rd position.

Los Blancos have also picked up form in the second half of the season as they eliminated PSG 5-2 on aggregate in the last round.

Their win over Las Palmas at the weekend makes it the 5^th consecutive time they have won in all competitions so far.

They have 10 wins and four draws from their last 17 away games in all competitions, but this is a competition that they look like a specialist in and they could get a win here provided all of their star players are firing.

They have both won 2, lost 2 and drawn 2 of their last 6 meetings against eachother.
