Juventus welcome Villarreal to the Allianz Stadium on Wednesday evening in the second leg of their last-16 encounter in the Champions League, with the tie finely poised.

The first leg ended 1-1 at the Estadio de la Ceramica three weeks ago, and both teams will feel they have a strong chance of progressing to the last eight of the tournament.

Juventus vs Villarreal latest odds

Juve have won 10 of their last 11 home games in the Champions League and bet365 offer them at 19/20 (1.95) to claim another victory.

Villarreal, meanwhile, have played well on the road in this season's competition, recording two wins from three games, and can be backed at 16/5 (4.20), with the draw priced at 12/5 (3.40).

Juventus vs Villarreal first goalscorer

Dusan Vlahovic has hit the ground running since joining from Fiorentina in January, with the Serbia international scoring the opening goal in the first leg.

Vlahovic is the favourite to break the deadlock at 15/4 (4.75) while Alvaro Morata is priced at 4/1 (5.00) and Villarreal's Dutch forward Arnaut Danjuma can be backed at 6/1 (7.00).

Juventus vs Villarreal preview

Since the first leg, Max Allegri's side have won all four matches they have played and, while Juve are not enjoying their best season, they have been able to find the back of the net regularly.

The Turin side have scored in 20 of their last 21 matches in all competitions and they will feel confident of netting once more against a Villarreal team who have kept just one clean sheet in their seven games in the Champions League this term.

Indeed, in four of those seven games, Unai Emery's men have conceded at least twice and there should be some interest in backing the hosts to find the back of the net more than once.

Juventus vs Villarreal tips & predictions

Juve to score over 1.5 goals is offered at 11/10 (2.10) and, with the Serie A side boasting two excellent, in-form strikers in Dusan Vlahovic and Alvaro Morata, they should be backed to cause Villarreal some problems.
