Juventus v Tottenham: It’s going to be tight in Turin

Tottenham Hotspur have grown into one of the best sides in England under Mauricio Pochettino. But they haven’t made their mark in Europe yet.

They’ve got a chance to change that tonight. They travel to Turin for a daunting Champions League last-16 tie against Juventus.

The Serie A champions have only lost once at home in all competitions this term. It’s no surprise that they’re 5/4 favourites here. However, Spurs could be good value at 12/5. The draw is 21/10.

Spurs will be full of confidence after their impressive win in Saturday’s North London derby.

However, their recent away form will be a cause for concern. They’ve not won any of their last three games on the road.

That makes it crucial they keep things tight at the back. First legs always tend to be tight and there aren’t likely to be many goals at the Allianz Stadium.

Juventus have only conceded once in their last 16 games. A home Win to Nil is 12/5.

Tottenham’s chances will be boosted by the absence of several key Juventus players.

They’ll still have to deal with Gonzalo Higuain though. He’s on fire with six goals in his last four outings. The striker is 10/3 to open the scoring.
