There's no exiting this stadium without a winner tonight as it's the second leg of the Champions League 8th Finals meeting between Juventus and Villarreal. Game on!

It's quite the trip for Villarreal when visiting Juventus as the cities are 1100 kilometers apart.

It's no vacation for neither Juventus nor Villarreal as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Juventus form and stats

Juventus participated in Champions League the last season, where they reached the 8th finals and lost against Porto.

8-3-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie A numbers at home for Juventus so far this season. This match is a Champions League match, and the hometeam has the total statistics 5 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in this competition.

A strong away win for Juventus against Sampdoria the last match, as Morata (2) were on target. The striker Morata outdid all the other players in that match and received a match rating of 8.41 out of 10. Morata scored two goals, hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 40 successful passes (of 46 total).

Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Spezia.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Juventus have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found six games) they have won three times, drawn two and lost one.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Salernitana are coming to town in four days.

Juventus has scored 18 league goals at home this season, in 14 matches. Juventus have only conceded 9 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Villarreal form and stats

Nothing but glory last season for Villarreal, as they won the Champions League.

The story so far for the visiting team on their La Liga travels is 3 wins, 5 draws and 5 defeats. When we have look at the Champions League statistics, we find 3W-2D-2L. This is both home and away.

Villarreal go into this game after a win, the home game against Celta de Vigo that ended 1-0. Midfielder Parejo was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.43. Parejo scored one goal, hit three key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 51 successful passes (of 56 total).

It was a La Liga defeat before that one as the away game against Osasuna wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

The schedule is very tough for Villarreal now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A La Liga game at Cadiz is waiting in only four days.

It's not easy to score on Villarreal as they have only conceded 12 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head

The latest past result involving both these squads is the Villarreal - Juventus 1-1 played previously this season.

The UEFA Champions League is the major international club football tournament in Europe. The competition begins already in late June and lasts for almost a year, ending with the final played in late May or early June. After several qualifying rounds the group stage is where the “true” Champions League begins for many viewers. Eight groups with four teams each battle through six rounds to qualify for the knock-out phase. Then a round of 16, quarterfinals and then semifinals needs to be won before a place in the final is secured.
