Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane has told his team to expect a different Juventus side in Tuesday’s Champions League quarter-final first leg in Turin.
Real overcame the Old Lady 4-1 in last year’s final in Cardiff but Zidane believes the Italian side would give his side a run for their money this rime.
“It will be a totally different scenario,” Zidane told a press conference in Turin on Monday.
“Ten months have elapsed and tomorrow’s match will have nothing to do with that.
“The players are more or less the same but since then our season has not been as good as we expected it to be.
“Juventus have been having a great season.”
Real Madrid are trailing Barcelona by 13 points in La Liga while Juventus are top of Serie A and in the running for a treble.
“Juventus are doing great things and playing beautiful football, it is a complete team,” continued Zidane.
“We have to pay attention to everything, their defensive strength and talent of (Paulo) Dybala and (Gonzalo) Higuain up front and their midfield.”
