Tottenham Hotspur and Juventus will square off in the Champions League tomorrow.
Juventus star Giorgio Chiellini sat down for an exclusive interview with Italian media outlet Il Giornale, ahead of his side’s clash with Tottenham in the Champions League tomorrow night, and raved about the quality of Harry Kane.
Tomorrow’s clash is finely poised, with Spurs holding a slight advantage over Juve, having scored two away goals in Turin three weeks ago.
The Old Lady will still fancy their chances of progressing through to the quarter-finals of the competition, though, what with their supreme pedigree in the Champions League.
Max Allegri’s side are on a superb run of form too. They have not lost a game since November 19th in all competitions, and have an air of invincibility around them.
Chiellini, 33, spoke exclusively to Il Giornale ahead of tomorrow’s clash with Tottenham, highlighting the quality of Harry Kane as something that his team need to be wary of:
“How highly do I rate Kane? We are talking about a player who is among the best three or four strikers in the world. We must play like Juventus tomorrow. If we play the way we can, we will win. That said, Tottenham are an excellent attacking team and will cause us problems. They hold a slight advantage, having scored two away goals. The game is open and they know this as well. We are better prepared, because we know them much better now.”
The one main positive for Juventus is the fact that they know they have to score, so there will be no indecision in the way they approach the game tomorrow night.
There chances of winning the game will be greatly improved if they can keep quiet, but that will, of course, be a lot easier said than done.
The game kicks off at 19:45 and can be seen exclusively live on BT Sport.
