Preview
The old ladies of Torino are not the best club in Italy anymore. Inter broke the deadlock and replace Juventus last season, however, Coach Allegri tries to guide the team in a precise way. After the accusation of Dusan Vlahovic, they’re turning things around. Villarreal has a history in this competition. They played in the final of this tournament. In this season, their hope of being in the top 4 is thin, therefore, it’s highly unlikely they can play in this contest next season. So, they’ll try to do their best and we can have a thriller encounter.
Possible XI of Juventus vs Villarreal:
Juventus: Schezney, De Ligt, Bonucci, Danilo, Cuadrado, Rabiot, Arthur, Di Sciglio, Locatelli, Morata, Vlahovic.
Villarreal: Rulli, Foyth, Albiol, Pau Torres, Pedraza, Chukwueze, Parezo, Moreno, Lo Celso, Capoue, Yeremy.
Probable outcome: Juventas will reach the last 8.
