Juventus coach Allegri wouldn't swap his squad for Atletico Madrid's

Juventus coach Max Allegri wouldn't swap his squad for Atletico Madrid's.

Juve need a draw against Atletico Madrid to reach the next phase of the Champions League.

"I don't envy Atletico Madrid," Allegri said.

"Fortunately I am Juventus Coach, so I'm training a team which is not only made up of good players, but lads with the right mentality.

"I think that's the main asset this team has, because otherwise they wouldn't have been able to win three Serie A titles in a row, the [two] Super Cups and be leading the League again this season and be on the verge of qualifying for the next round of the Champions League.

"It's hard to say if we're stronger than them or less strong, we're two very good teams, and this year we have the opportunity to make it to the knockout stages and try to have a good Champions League campaign."
