Arsène Wenger: Juve have class to beat Real, but Milan will suffer against Barca
Juventus showed in the last round of Champions League matches they can match Real Madrid despite losing 2-1. Tuesday's game will be even more difficult for the Spanish side.
Juventus played for quite a long time with 10 men after Giorgio Chiellini was sent off. But even at 10 against 11 it seemed like they could come back.
The Bianconceri made a very good impression and Paul Pogba was very impressive.
For the return fixture, I give a small advantage to Juventus, as they play at home. If they win a little bit more of the duels, if they press Real, I think they have a chance.
In the other contest between Spain and Italy, Milan travel to Barcelona after a 1-1 draw in the last round of games.
Milan know how to stop Barcelona. They play against them almost every year, and are always hard for Barca. So, on the whole, that 1-1 draw was a good result for Milan.
But when you see the ball possession for the first match, I think it can only go worse for Milan in the second game.
I foresee a 10 v 10 battle in one half of the field, with three counter-attacks per half for Milan.
We saw last year that they can score on these counter attacks. But, on the whole, Barcelona will still be the favourite.
