Cesare Prandelli has warned Juventus not to take Champions League group opponents Valencia lightly.

Prandelli had a stint as Los Che coach and says Juve must be wary.

“The Mestalla is always a bear pit, a stadium where the fans make themselves heard," Prandelli told Corriere di Torino.

“A very difficult test awaits Juventus, and not just because of the atmosphere. I think Valencia, at home, are the most dangerous opponent in the Bianconeri's group - including Manchester United.

“Juventus are rightly among the five big favourites, with Real Madrid, Liverpool, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain.

“Of course, when you start with the explicit goal of winning the Champions League the expectations are always higher.

“The players will have to give something more than usual."
