Juventus welcome Villarreal to Turin hoping to book their place in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

The first leg of the Round of 16 tie ended 1-1, with Villarreal finding a second half equaliser to head to Italy all-square.

Two smartly built sides, both could be boosted by the return of attacking options to the bench after injury lay-offs.

Both Massimiliano Allegri and Unai Emery have relatively recent experience of guiding sides to the final of continental competitions and will hope to draw on those runs as they plot their way through what could be a tight second leg.

Team News

Massimiliano Allegri has confirmed that all of Paulo Dybala, Giorgio Chiellini and Federico Bernadeschi are back available, though the Juventus manager does not believe that any are yet ready to start, suggesting that the trio will be utilised from the bench.

Federico Chiesa, Weston McKennie, Leonardo Bonucci and Denis Zakaria are, however, absent, while Alex Sandro’s bothersome calf has ruled him out.

For Villarreal, Unai Emery hopes that Spanish international striker Gerard Moreno could play some part, but warned that the club will be “very cautious” with his injury. Moreno has not played since early February.

Namesake Alberto Moreno is more certain to miss out. Juan Foyth has missed the last couple of games but trained with the squad before travelling to Piedmont, which may mean that fellow former Tottenham defender Serge Aurier is at right-back after the Argentina international started the first leg.

Confirmed Lineups

Juventus XI: Szczesny; Danilo, De Ligt, Rugani, De Sciglio; Cuadrado, Locatelli, Arthur, Rabiot; Morata, Vlahovic

Villarreal XI: Rulli; Foyth, Albiol, Pau Torres, Estupiñán; Trigueros, Capoue, Parejo; Yeremi Pino, Danjuma, Lo Celso

Odds

Juventus win 17/16

Draw 49/20

Villarreal win 33/0

Prediction

These are two solidly constructed sides and it could again be nip-and-tuck, but the hosts have a little more forward thrust on paper - and that could make the difference. Juventus 2-1 Villarreal
