The best match of Wednesday's slate of Champions League games will pit Italy champions Juventus against Spanish champions Atletico Madrid. The matchup at the Estadio Vicente Calderon could be critical in deciding who wins Group A.
The Bianconeri made it harder on themselves than was needed but beat Malmo 2-0 in the group opener last month. It was the first time they'd won their first game since returning to the competition two years ago. Should they beat the Rojiblancos—who lost to Olympiakos 3-2 in their openerthey'd come home heavy favorites to win the group.
For Diego Simeone's men, a loss would not only spot Juve the group lead but make it a struggle to even advance out of the group. Avoiding defeat at home is going to be absolutely crucial. Will they be able to?
Let's take a closer look and see what awaits in one of the best matches of Matchday 2.
