Massimiliano Allegri wants Juventus to finish top of their Champions League group with a victory against Atletico Madrid in Turin.

Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri has said that his side are aiming to finish top of their Champions League group.

The Bianconeri will secure their place in the last 16 with a draw in their final group match against Atletico Madrid, but Allegri is confident that they can secure all three points in order to earn a more favourable draw in the knockout stages.

"It's a special game, different from the usual," he told Sky Sport Italia. "We're playing for qualification for the knockout stages, against a team that are already qualified, but are aiming for first place.

"If we beat them by two goals we'll go top. We'll have all the passion of our stadium on our side, that will be fundamental for us. Everyone has to sacrifice and work for the team in this game, we can achieve qualification.

"Atletico are a team which usually makes their opponents play poorly, and they work really hard for each other. Most importantly, they have good players, who can change a game at any time, especially on set pieces and on the counter-attack."

Juventus failed to make it out of the group stages in last season's tournament.
