Sporting CP Coach Jorge Jesus still thinks they can reach the Champions League Last 16 as “I don’t believe Juventus will win in Athens”.
The Bianconeri just have to beat Olympiakos in matchday six to be guaranteed qualification, while Sporting have to win at Camp Nou against Barcelona, who are already through.
“If we win at Barcelona we’ll be through,” Jesus said after last night’s win over the Greeks, as reported by O Jogo.

“If we win at Barcelona we’ll be through,” Jesus said after last night’s win over the Greeks, as reported by O Jogo.
“I don’t believe Juventus will win in Athens, Olympiakos are a very strong team. What’s more difficult is winning in Barcelona, I’m under no illusions about that.
“We want to go to Camp Nou and win, the teams who have gone through often rest players. Today, for example, Barcelona rested [Lionel] Messi.
“Let’s believe that we’re going to pass the group stage.”
