Forecast
Juventus and Villarreal have a cautious first half
Juventus take on Villarreal at home in the Champions League last 16 on Wednesday. The Turin club have made decent progress, although victories are not always confirmed by the quality of their performance. The team are back in the Serie A title race. The winning streak stands at four games. Juventus win in Massimiliano Allegri's traditional style. They have been criticised for their lack of spectacle, but they have been consistently winning points. The encounter in Spain also left a number of questions. Villarreal acted from a position of strength and attacked after conceding a goal in the first minute. Juventus have a better overall class of players, but as a result, the Turin side were clearly focused on keeping the score level. A draw suited the Italian club well. Villarreal are having a very solid season, demonstrating quality results on two fronts. In the Champions League, they qualified from the group stage with Manchester United and Atalanta. They did not concede in either game. In the Spanish championship, they continue to fight for the top four. The Submarine have their own characteristic style of play aimed at possession. It is very likely that the Spanish club will hold on to the ball more in Turin as well. In the last round of La Liga, Emery's men beat Celta 1-0. Juventus are certainly not expected to have an easy walk, but the odds are adequately stacked this time around. The Spaniards cannot be considered the favourites in Turin. With the fans' support, Juventus will be forced to play a little sharper. Plus, there is a definite positive momentum in the results. A cautious matchup is more likely. Villarreal have been the leader in terms of peaceful outcomes in La Liga over the last two seasons. Juventus are more likely to be drawn to lesser totals, and Allegri has always preferred to keep the scoreline level at 1-0 in European competition. With that in mind, it's logical to expect a cautious first half. A goalless draw is likely. It was Dusan Vlahovic's surprise goal that turned things around in the first leg. Otherwise, the opponents wouldn't have taken any chances either. Juventus have the most unpleasant injury situation. Bonucci, Zakaria, McKenyi, Dibala and Chiellini will definitely not play. Villarreal continue to have problems with their strikers. The two leading scorers Moreno and Alcacer will not play.
