In Group D, there is a vital clash between Portuguese outfit, Sporting and Italian giants, Juventus, at the Estádio José Alvalade in Lisbon with the hosts needing all three points in order to stay in contention for a top two finish in the group.

Sporting started their Champions League campaign brightly enough with a valuable 3-2 win away at Greek side, Olympiakos, but have since suffered back-to-back defeats to Barcelona 1-0 at home and a 2-1 defeat away at tonight’s opponents, Juventus.

The hosts will now be looking to turn the tables on the Italians tonight, but the signs aren’t good for Sporting who have gone four matches at home without a win in the Champions League, losing three of their last four on home turf to Borussia Dortmund, Real Madrid and Barcelona. Tough games, and facing Juventus doesn’t get any easier either.

Onto Juventus, and they sit in second place in Group D with a three point cushion over their hosts, Sporting, but are, themselves, trailing group leaders, Barcelona by three points ahead of match day four.

The Italians were off to a poor start in these group stages of the Champions League as they were handed a 3-0 defeat in Spain by Barcelona, but the Old Lady has since revived their fortunes by recording back-to-back wins over Olympiakos 2-0 and Sporting 2-1, both of which were registered at their Allianz Stadium in Torino.

Prior to their recent loss at Barcelona, Juventus had put together a good run of results away from home in this competition as they put together a six match run without defeat, winning five of these six with wins at Dinamo Zagreb, Lyon, Sevilla, Porto and a Monaco side who still had all their stars at the time!
