The quarter finals of the UEFA Champions League will see Liverpool take on the might of Juventus, with Liverpool at home for the first leg, with a tough trip to Turin to follow, Liverpool’s best hope will be to take a good lead with them.

But it will not be easy as Juventus have one of the toughest defensive records in Europe.

There is of course history between these two sides not least the ill-fated European Cup final in 1985, when 39 fans died at the Heysel Stadium. After the tragedy Juventus went on to win 1-0, in a match that somehow did not seam to matter anymore.
