"Juventus" coach Massimiliano Allegri admits that their chances against "Manchester City" are not great, and he considers the English vice-champion as one of the favorites for the UEFA Champions League trophy.
Today starts the most powerful tournament of the Old Continent, where we already have an intriguing match - "Man City" and "Juventus" meeting. The first match will take place at the "Etihad" stadium, where we will not see the strongest lineups.
"Manchester City" team is one of the favorites to win the Champions League", said M. Allegri. "Today marks the beginning of the group stage, and our goal is to pass it."
"We will have to play intensely, show a lot of courage and play high-level football. The team has given everything in the last three matches, but we lacked accuracy and a bit of luck," concluded the coach.
"Juventus" so far is not shining in Italy - two losses and one draw. Meanwhile, "Man City" in England remains unbeaten with five victories.
