3 reasons why Juventus could reach the final of the Champions League this season

#1 Cristiano Ronaldo's influence

The Portuguese is running riot in the Champions League once again

Juventus took a step further in bolstering their chances of making it in the Champions League this season when they spent a whopping €100 million to lure Cristiano Ronaldo, the man who denied them European glory on several occasions, from Real Madrid during the summer.

While Ronaldo started his European campaign with the Bianconeri slowly, he stepped up to prove himself last week, bagging a fantastic hat-trick to help the Italians overcome a 2-goal deficit against Atletico Madrid to seal their progress into the quarterfinals of the competition.

The Portuguese is undoubtedly the greatest superstar in the history of the Champions League. He is the all-time scorer of the competition, with 124 goals to his name, and he has won the trophy on 5 occasions, including the last 3 consecutive editions which he claimed Real Madrid.

With the Portuguese on their side, Juventus are not just primed to reach the final, they also have a huge chance of claiming the trophy this season.
