Sports Mole takes a closer look at Tuesday's Champions League clash between Juventus and Olympiacos as the Greek side look to cause another upset.

Olympiacos have the chance to take another step towards reaching the Champions League knockout stages when they meet Juventus in Turin on Tuesday.

The Greek side were tipped by many to struggle in a Group A which included Juve and Spanish champions Atletico Madrid, but they find themselves in second spot at the halfway stage.

A Pajtim Kasami winner and an impressive goalkeeping display from Roberto made the difference when Olympiacos managed to claim a shock 1-0 victory over the Old Lady a fortnight ago.

However, confidence has taken a hit in recent weeks due to disappointing draws with domestic rivals Panionios and Asteras Tripolis.

Juventus continue to dominate in Serie A, and held onto a three-point advantage at the top of the table with a 2-0 victory over Empoli on Saturday evening.

However, carrying that form into the Champions League has been a problem for Massimiliano Allegri's side, who have only picked up three points in the competition so far, finding the net just twice in the process.

There are no new injury concerns for either side, meaning that Carlos Tevez and Paul Pogba are likely to reclaim their starting spots for Juventus after being used as substitutes on the weekend.

Sports Mole says: 2-0
