Former Juventus midfielder: 'Juve are the favorites to win Champions League'

Former Juventus midfielder Mohamed Sissoko has given his verdict on Juventus' UEFA Champions League clash against Valencia later today and has said that they are the favorites to win the tournament.

Sissoko was recently talking to TuttoJuve about the bianconeri's game against the Spanish side and he said: "I think Juventus is stronger than Valencia, it is clearly the favorite for this match but also to win the championship and the Champions League.

"The Spaniards certainly are better than the first leg and will try to win, but at the moment few clubs can compete against Allegri's formation.

"Juventus will start aggressively and will immediately mortgage the match so as not to repeat the mistake made against Manchester. Juventus will win easily ".

A win will take Allegri's men into the next round of the competition, with a game against Young Boys yet to be played. Manchester United play the Swiss giants later today and have already beaten Juve.
