Atletico Madrid ace Antoine Griezmann says they're excited to be facing Champions League opponents Juventus.

Atleti welcome Juve to Wanda Metropolitano in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie on Wednesday.

"We have players that have already played in Champions League, Europa League and World Cup finals," Griezmann told UEFA's official website.

“We're already gaining in confidence in important games and moments and I think it's at those times that we really raise our game and that helps us play better.

“We have new faces in the team, but I think that the fundamental base remains the same and that is what will help us to go far.

“[Hosting the Final] gives us and the fans even more motivation. There's always a great atmosphere and that's what we need, that's what we want as players.

“[A home Final] would be a celebration for everyone associated with Atletico. The path there will be very difficult, but we will try our best; we will do everything in our power to get there, and then we'll see."
