Eliminated in the round of 16 last year by Porto, Juventus hopes to avoid another disappointment on the European scene, Wednesday March 16, against Villarreal. Fourth in Serie A, Massimiliano Allegri’s men may be the only Italians present in the C1 quarter-finals to restore their image. Undefeated over 90 minutes since November 27, in all competitions, the Juventini arrive confident and boosted by their star rookie of the winter transfer window, Dusan Vlahovic.
The Serb had also distinguished himself in the first leg, scoring an exceptional goal after thirty seconds, for his first match in the Champions League. Dani Parejo then answered him, allowing the yellow submarine to pick up again. Unai Emery’s players are also in fine form and have posted five wins in their last seven league games. The away goal is no longer valued, the counters are reset before this return match, in Turin.
