Juventus vs FC Barcelona

FC Barcelona is going to take on Serie A leaders, Juventus in the first leg of quarter-finals of the 2017 UEFA Champions League on Wednesday at 12:15 AM (IST). Both the teams will be hoping to move one step closer to the semi-final.

Juventus have not tasted any defeat except 3-2 to Naples in the second leg in the last week's thrilling match. Dybala said that they are in a great place heading into the final weeks of the season.

"We're in the best moment of the season. That's how I see it after knocking Napoli out of the cup and the league wins against Chievo and Sampdoria," Dybala said.

"`I'm sure Barcelona will want a response to the defeat against Malaga. But that's fine, at home we are a very strong team,'' he further added.

Juventus under the guidance of Massimiliano Allegri are one of the giants of the European game and they are more than a match for Luis' Barcelona.

However, statistics will boost Barcelona's momentum also as they are in the Champions League quarter-finals for a record 10th season in a row. But they cannot afford another night like they had in Paris because if Juventus will not capitulate if given a decent head start going into the second leg.

Star player, Lionel Messi reportedly wanted Barcelona to omit Jeremy Mathieu and Andre Gomes for their Champions League clash with Juventus.
The match is surely going to be a thriller and it will be exciting to see who will win.
