UEFA Champions League
Teams: Juventus vs Real Madrid
Date: 3 April 2018
Venue: Allianz Stadium
Time: 8.45pm
The match, a replay of last season's final, sees Zinedine Zidane's men travel to the city of Turin as underdogs as they have not beaten the Italian side at their home ground since 1962.
Juventus lost their first European home meeting with Real Madrid 1-0 in February 1962, but since then have won six and drawn one of their seven home games against the Spanish giants.
The midweek tie will be the 20th meeting between these two clubs in European competition, with Real having won nine times, and Juventus eight.
Massimiliano Allegri's side is currently on a 27-game unbeaten run at home in European competition, a run of 16 wins and 11 draws, with their last European loss occurring in April 2013, against Bayern Munich.
Five-time Ballon d'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo has a great scoring record against the Italian outfit, though, having scored in all five of his games against Juve, and has seven goals altogether against the Bianconeri.
In team news, the Old Lady will be without defender Medhi Benatia and midfielder Miralem Pjanic, who are both suspended, while Real are expected to be at full strength.
Here's how they line up:
Juventus: Buffon; De Sciglio, Barzagli, Chiellini, Asamoah; Khedira, Bentancur; Douglas Costa, Dybala, Alex Sandro; Higuain
Real Madrid: Keylor Navas; Carvajal, Ramos, Varane, Marcelo; Casemiro, Kroos, Modric, Isco; Benzema, Ronaldo.
