Juventus
Even with the transfer of Paul Pogba, Juventus are a strong side

After a really long time Juventus are in a group they should comfortably win, with all due respect to their other opponents and Sevilla who won three straight Europa League titles in a row and a club that should not be underestimated.

The French club Lyon finished 2nd in Ligue 1 last season and with the in-form Alexandre Lacazette they could fling a few surprises. Dinamo Zagreb maybe the Croatian champions but they barely stand a chance in this group.

The club might have enjoyed their successful spell under Antonio Conte but with his departure to Chelsea, Juventus need to set themselves for a bigger challenge.

The Italian champions, the most successful club in Italian football history have certainly a point to prove, especially since the defeat to Barcelona in the Champions League 2014/15 final.Juventus will be aiming to win the tournament and to recover their reputation as a force in Europe.

The Old Lady might be one of the best teams in the world but being the best isn’t enough to win the tournament, the club’s new manager Massimiliano Allegri will want his team to be in top condition as and when the games arrive.

Juventus spent big time in the transfer window to acquire the services of Gonzalo Higuain who had a stellar season at Napoli, and with the likes of Dani Alves, Miralem Pjanic and Giorgio Chiellini, the Italian giants will be hoping to be one of the favourites to win the tournament.
