Atletico Madrid v Juventus Predictions for Wednesday's CL 1/8 finals first leg at the Wanda Metropolitano in Madrid. Both sides have a tough challenge ahead and each have twice been in the finals between 2014-2017. Read our betting analysis of this clash below.
The five-time Ballon d'Or winner will be keen to score for the team he beat 4-1 with Real Madrid in the 2017 final, where he scored a double, and for whom he has already netted 20 all season so far.
Juventus qualified as Group H winners and all but guaranteed top position in the first three rounds by producing a 7-0 score for the Old Lady across all three. They are unbeaten in Serie A and have a tight grip on another league title sitting 13 clear at the top.
Atletico Madrid entered the knockout phase behind Dortmund in Group A and had just one defeat out of six group fixtures. However, the Madrid-based side have lost two of their last three games to La Liga rivals Real Madrid and Betis - two of only the three losses they have suffered this season domestically.
This game doesn't herald lots of goals because Atletico have kept a clean sheet in their last 3 matches and there have been under 2.5 goals scored in Atletico's last 3 games in the UEFA Champions League.
Juventus (4-3-1-2): Szczesny; Sandro, Chiellini, Bonucci, Cancelo; Matuidi, Bentancur, Pjanic; Dybala; Ronaldo, Mandzukic.
Juventus: Juan Cuadrado, Douglas Costa.
