"Juventus" strategist Massimiliano Allegri believes that by overcoming the barrier of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, where they will face Bayern Munich, his team would take a serious step towards triumph in the tournament.
However, despite reaching the final last year, the "bianconeri" are considered absolute underdogs this season, with the Bavarians being seen as unstoppable opponents in Germany.
After the draw for the knockout stage was made in Nyon yesterday, "Juve" legend Pavel Nedved also expressed his belief in the success of the Italian club.
"Bayern" is one of the best teams in the world. A victory against them would make us one of the favorites to win the Champions League," Allegri said.
"On the other hand, this clash will not happen soon. At the moment, we must concentrate on the near future."
Tomorrow, Juventus will face Torino in the "Coppa Italia" competition. The "Bianconeri" coach also highlighted the importance of these matches, as he wants to win the domestic cup for the second consecutive season. The team has not been able to achieve this since the 1960s.
