Juventus - Tottenham

The last year's finalist Juventus host the English Spurs on Tuesday evening as the curtain rises again in the Champions League. Both teams are TOP 5 in their domestic competitions, Juve are 2nd in SEA (only 1 point behind Napoli), Spurs are 4th w 52 pts in the PRL. Both teams are showing up stable and reliable form recently, but Juventus have more quality in this duel I think. Jvuentus won its last 5 competitive games to nil, last Friday against Fiorentina to 0-2. Higuain is on fire, he scored on the last 4 consecutive games and I count on him to find the Spurs net here as well. Spurs are also unbeaten in the PRL since the middle of December, their last 5 games: 3W and 2D, but Juventus is the better side and they can cover this home victory. I expect a heavy strategic fight between the coaches, probably both teams can score, but I can imagine a 1-0 or 2-0 Juve victory as well.
