Atletico Madrid midfielder Koke has praised Juventus’ midfield strength ahead of tomorrow’s crucial Champions League tie.

Juventus can win the group if they beat the Spanish champions by at least two goals, but also risk elimination should Atleti emerge from Turin with a victory and Olympiacos beat Malmo.

The Bianconeri lost 1-0 to Diego Simeone’s side earlier this season, but Koke professes an admiration for the Old Lady’s midfield strength.

“It’s always nice to play in a stadium like this, for the atmosphere,” the midfielder told journalists in a Press conference at Juventus Stadium ahead of the match.

“It’s always nice to play in Europe and we hope it will be a good day tomorrow.

“Their midfield? They are very strong, we saw that already at [Atletico’s stadium] the Calderon, even though they were without [Andrea] Pirlo who is a great player.

“I think it will be a great game and a fierce battle tomorrow night.”
