Italian journalist Mario Sconcerti has suggested that Juventus have a tougher Champions League group draw than Inter, according to a report in the Italian media today.
As was said by the journalist whilst writing for Corriere della Sera, he feels that the Bianconeri have got a more complex group to try and get through than the Nerazzurri.
May have picked out Group C as the group of death because it features Inter along with Bayern Munich and Barcelona.
Juventus have been handed a group containing French champions Paris Saint Germain along with Portuguese side Benfica and Israeli side Maccabi Haifa.
Predominantly due to the perceived diminishing stature of Barcelona, Mario Sconcerti feels that Juventus have got a tougher job on their hands than Inter.
“The most complex ones fell to Juve and Inter, to Juve perhaps more than to Inter. Inter’s group is even worse, Bayern and Barcelona, but Inter have grown a lot, are at their best, while Barcelona are spectacular and waning.
“And Bayern lost Lewandowski. Decisive will be the goals each of the three will score against Plzen, a tough, athletic team anyway.”
He then talked about AC Milan who have got a more favourable draw than Inter or Juventus as the only huge team in their group is Chelsea from the Premier League.
“Milan’s draw is much better. They will have a much-changed Chelsea, a technical team, but perhaps not superior to the best Milan.
“It will still be the only opponent. The others are the quick lads from Salzburg and the Croatians from Dinamo Zagreb, with the Croatians in reserve. The best all play abroad.”
