#2 A potent and clinical attack
The Argentine duo of Gonzalo Higuain and Paulo Dybala may not always run riot but have the ability to make the most of the opportunities afforded to them.
Higuain has scored 23 goals in the Serie A this season and Dybala nine, taking the Bianconeri to the threshold of their sixth successive league title. With 32 goals between them, the two account for nearly 50% of Juventus’ 70 goals in the league.
Their CL record is as impressive, with nine goals between them of a total 19 scored by Juve in the competition.
What is even more noteworthy is that both are big-game players for their side. After all, it was courtesy of Dybala’s brace that Juve saw off Barcelona in the quarter-final, while Higuain’s double against Monaco on Wednesday has given them the upper hand ahead of the semi-final second leg in Turin next Tuesday.
Ably shielded by their defence and aided by the midfield, the attack carries enough threat, fluency and clinical prowess as they have effectively demonstrated in the run-in so far. There is every reason to believe that this can carry on for the next two games (implicitly assuming Juve reach the final, of course) as they look to add another feather to the cap.
