Giovanni Trapattoni says Juventus should embrace their Champions League quarterfinal against Barcelona.

Many at Juve would rather have waited until the final to meet Barca.

But Trapattoni says: "Draw hard for (Max) Allegri's team? No, I think it is much better to deal with Barca right away.

"Juve has the ability and the attack to be able to go all the way to the final. When you get to these levels, they could meet other squads like Real and Bayern.

"A game between Zizou and Carletto will be another final anticipated."
