Juventus striker Paulo Dybala says beating Manchester City tomorrow could ‘help the team forget what’s happened in the league.’

The Bianconeri have had a hugely disappointing start to their Scudetto defence, picking up only one point in three matches.

They begin their Champions League campaign at the Etihad Stadium tomorrow evening, with kick off at 19:45 UK time.

Dybala believes that a positive result could help pull Juve out of their rut.

“The first Champions League match could definitely be useful for us,” he told Tuttosport.

“If we play a great match in Manchester, we could forget what’s happened so far in the league.

“I don’t know yet if I’ll play, the Coach will decide. In any case I’ll try to give everything, score goals and help my teammates.

“You only get out of a period like this by working hard. We know that this isn’t an easy moment for us, our fans aren’t used to seeing Juve with just one point after three matches.

“But if we can turn this situation around, it’ll be even more amazing.

“Against Udinese and Chievo we had 70 per cent of possession, we were unlucky not to find the second goal they had at most two shots on goal and we deserved three points.

“We must go forward and try to give the best performance we can on Tuesday.”
