Champions League Group H
BT Sport ESPN, 8pm Wednesday

Juventus have been touted as possible Champions League winners but their immediate priority is to make sure of finishing top of Group H.

Two points separate Juve from second-placed Manchester United but the Premier League side, who travel to Valencia, have the better head-to-head record and could usurp them if the Italians fail to win their fifth match of the group-stage campaign.

Juventus are likely to be fully focused and should soon gain the ascendancy against a Young Boys side set to finish fourth.

Young Boys are dominating the Swiss league and have played better football in the Champions League than their results (one draw and four losses) indicate.

However, they are likely to be taught another harsh lesson by Juve who are far superior in key areas of the pitch.

Recommendation
Juventus-Juventus double result
1pt 5-4 Ladbrokes
