In the UEFA Champions League action in the midweek we have some great games to look forward too, some of the big teams have already booked their places in the next round while some of the heaviweights are still hoping to get into the qualification and two of these two giants in Italian Champions Juventus and European Champions Chelsea will be taking on each other is a very crucial game for both sides.

Right now after 4 matches in the group stages Chelsea have 7 points on the table, and they will be traveling to Italy to face Juventus in what will be a cracker of a game for sure. Juventus have 6 points on the table with 4 games played. What makes this game exciting is that another team in the group in Shakhtar Dontesk have 7 points and they will be playing against minnows Nordsjælland and probably will get all three points and will make it to the knock outs and that put Chelsea and Juventus in trouble as one of them will be going out.

38' [1 - 0] F. Quagliarella

61' [2 - 0] A. Vidal

90' [3 - 0] S. Giovinco

Juventus have been playing poorly in Europe with just 6 points in the opening 4 matches and since they are playing at home against Chelsea we can expect them to be favourites and go into the match with more confidence as they have to win this match at all cost if they have to qualify to the next round.

If we look at the past meeting between the two sides we can see that there is not much between the two, as earlier in the group stages Chelsea meet Juventus at Stamford Bridge and they got a 2-2 draw, while both meet in 2009 as well when game at Turin was a 2-2 draw while Chelsea won at home with a 1-0 win. Chelsea have lost the early season for and they are kind of a struggling at the moment and if they have to qualifiy to the next round they will have to win this match or atleast get a draw.
