Juventus are under fire

Milan - Manchester City might be deep in a crisis which is unprecedented under iconic coach Pep Guardiola, but tonight the wobbling English champions take on a Juventus team with troubles of their own.

- 

Juventus were booed and whistled by their supporters last Saturday night when they struggled back from two goals down to draw 2-2 at the death with mid-table Bologna.

Fans, who were expecting a change of tune when coach Thiago Motta left Bologna to replace Massimiliano Allegri in the summer, have been frustrated by a run of four straight draws which have left Juve off the pace at home and in Europe.

Had Juve not been in such uninspiring form, tonight would have been a perfect opportunity to leapfrog City in the Champions League table, where the Italians sit 19th, behind their Premier League opponents on goal difference.
