“Juve have every chance of winning tonight, as they have found their solidity and this game arrives at the perfect time,” the former captain told Sky Sport Italia.
“It could not be a better situation for the Bianconeri. Of course then they’ll have to play in Germany, but today it feels as if the issue of qualification is much more open than it was at the draw three months ago.”
Both sides have injury problems, as Giorgio Chiellini, Alex Sandro and Kwadwo Asamoah miss out for the hosts.
Pep Guardiola must do without Javier Martinez, Holger Badstuber and Jerome Boateng.
