Hoeness and Nubel: we expect a great game tomorrow | OneFootball

Sebastian Hoeness

“Juventus know how to defend well, full-field or further back. I can only pay my sincere compliments to my colleague, Thiago Motta, because Juventus have not lost yet this year. Tomorrow, I think that the team that concedes the fewest goals will win, given the data, and from that perspective our opponents are a team to be admired. We know that we will face a team that does not give away many chances and we will have to take advantage of any they do. We want to attack and put them under pressure. It will be important for us to have control of the ball, as we have already shown in the Bundesliga. It will be interesting to see who prevails because we both have the same goal in that respect.

As for the injury situation, nothing has changed since the match against Bayern Munich: Luca Raimund and Chris Fuhrich will not be available for the clash at the Allianz Stadium.

The defeat against Bayern Munich? We've already forgotten about it, but we are aware that we can’t make the same mistakes tomorrow night.

What do I think of Juventus? It's a club that I've always admired. They are a team with an incredible history and tradition and they've seen so many champions pass through their ranks over the years: the first that come to mind are Alessandro Del Piero and Zinedine Zidane, but those are just two examples.

I know Serie A well because lots of Serie A matches are shown in Germany. There are many strong teams and Juventus have impressed me a lot. They have a very big squad and I can't see any obvious weaknesses. I think we have similar characteristics to them, clearly with different players, and I expect a great game tomorrow.”

“Tomorrow we will have to try to impose our game on them, even in their half, trying to be brave and dominant. We know it won't be easy because they are a team that defends very well. It will also be important to press high and interrupt their ball possession.

Dusan Vlahovic? He is a goalscorer, a great striker who many teams want. He plays free kicks well, he scores a lot and has good technique. I'm happy to face a player as strong as him, it will be important to work very well as a team to keep him in check.”
