Uefa Champions League UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE - 2020/21 SEASON MATCH PRESS KITS (First leg: 1-2) Juventus Stadium - Turin Tuesday 9 March 2021 Juventus 21.00CET (21.00 local time) FC Porto Round of 16, Second leg Last updated 07/03/2021 21:54CET UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE OFFICIAL SPONSORS Match background 2 Legend 6 1 Juventus - FC Porto Tuesday 9 March 2021 - 21.00CET (21.00 local time) Match press kit Juventus Stadium, Turin Match background Juventus welcome Porto to Turin needing to overturn a first-leg deficit in the round of 16 for the second year in a row. • Goals early in each half from Mehdi Taremi and Moussa Marega put Porto in charge of the first leg at the Estádio do Dragão, until a Federico Chiesa strike eight minutes from time offered a route back into the tie for Juve, who bowed out to Lyon in last season's competition after failing to undo the damage of an away first-leg defeat back on home soil. • Juve, who are in the last 16 for the seventh season in a row, had never previously lost to the Portuguese side (W4 D1) and came into this tie having finished first in Group G thanks to a remarkable Matchday 6 triumph at Barcelona. • Porto finished second behind Manchester City in Group C, conceding only three goals and winning four of their six matches as they progressed from the UEFA Champions League group stage to the knockout phase for the fourth time in a row. Previous meetings • Juventus beat Porto 2-0 away and 1-0 at home in the 2016/17 UEFA Champions League round of 16. Marko Pjaca and Dani Alves were on target in the first leg at the Estádio do Dragão, before Paulo Dybala's 42nd-minute penalty settled the second game at the Juventus Stadium. • Juve took four points off Porto in the 2001/02 UEFA Champions League first group stage, following up a 0-0 draw in Portugal with a 3-1 victory in Turin. Clayton struck an early goal for Octávio Machado's visitors before Alessandro Del Piero and Paolo Montero turned the game for Marcello Lippi's Juve. David Trezeguet sealed the victory late on. • The Bianconeri also beat Porto 2-1 in the 1984 European Cup Winners' Cup final in Basel. Beniamino Vignola's early effort was cancelled out as António Morais's Porto drew level through António Sousa but Zbigniew Boniek won it for Giovanni Trapattoni's Juventus with a goal just before half-time. Form guide Juventus • Andrea Pirlo's side picked up 15 points to finish top of Group G, a closing 3-0 win at Barcelona – 2-0 winners in Turin on Matchday 2 – enabling them to finish above the Spanish side on head-to-head record. Juve also recorded two victories against both Dynamo Kyiv (2-0 a, 3-0 h) and Ferencváros (4-1 a, 2-1 h). • Cristiano Ronaldo was on target against Ferencváros on Matchday 4 and has now found the net in 16 consecutive editions of the UEFA Champions League, matching the feat of Lionel Messi and Karim Benzema. • Champions of Italy for a record ninth season in a row in 2019/20, and 36th time in all, this is Juve's 21st UEFA Champions League campaign; they have now reached the last 16 in 18 of those seasons, 2020/21 marking the seventh successive campaign in which they have progressed to the knockout phase. • The Bianconeri, under Maurizio Sarri, finished first in their section ahead of Atlético de Madrid in last season's competition having also won five of their six fixtures (D1) but bowed out in the round of 16, eliminated by Lyon on away goals (0-1 a, 2-1 h). • The Turin team have finished first in their UEFA Champions League section on 14 occasions, including in each of the last three seasons. • Winners in 1985 and 1996, Juventus have played in nine European Cup finals – losing a record seven, including all of their last five. • Juventus have lost only five of their 45 European matches at the Juventus Stadium (W28 D12), although four of those defeats have come in their last 13. • Juventus are in the UEFA Champions League round of 16 for the 12th time (W7 L4); last season's defeat by Lyon ended a run of three successive aggregate victories. • Juventus's home record against Portuguese sides is W5 D1 L1, most recently recording a 2-1 win against Sporting CP in the 2017/18 UEFA Champions League group stage. The Bianconeri's sole home loss to a Portuguese Liga club came in their first encounter, Benfica triumphing 1-0 in Turin in a 1967/68 European Champion Clubs' Cup semi-final second leg (3-0 aggregate), though equally damaging was a goalless draw against Benfica in the second leg of their 2013/14 UEFA Europa League semi-final that denied them a place in the final, staged in their home stadium. • Before the first leg of this tie, all four of Juve's previous defeats by Portuguese opponents had come against Benfica. • Juve's record in two-legged knockout ties against Portuguese clubs is W3 L2. • Juve have won 15 of the 34 UEFA ties in which they lost the away first leg, although they were beaten by Lyon last season. On the six occasions the Bianconeri have lost the away game 2-1, they have won four ties on aggregate, 2 Juventus - FC Porto Tuesday 9 March 2021 - 21.00CET (21.00 local time) Match press kit Juventus Stadium, Turin although they lost the last two, against Liverpool in the 2004/05 UEFA Champions League quarter-finals (0-0 h) and Benfica in that 2013/14 UEFA Europa League semi-final. • Juventus's record in six UEFA penalty shoot-outs is W3 L3: 3-0 v Ajax, 1977/78 European Champion Clubs' Cup quarter-final 1-4 v Widzew Łódź, 1980/81 UEFA Cup second round 4-2 v Argentinos Juniors, 1985 European/South American Cup final 1-3 v Real Madrid, 1986/87 European Champion Clubs' Cup second round 4-2 v Ajax, 1995/96 UEFA Champions League final 2-3 v AC Milan, 2002/03 UEFA Champions League final Porto • Porto are unbeaten in this season's UEFA Champions League since a 3-1 Matchday 1 defeat at Manchester City, winning the next three – at home against Olympiacos (2-0) and Marseille (3-0) plus a 2-0 victory in France – before a goalless draw against City in Portugal ensured they would finish in second place in Group C. They made it five successive UEFA Champions League clean sheets with a 2-0 win at Olympiacos on Matchday 6. • The Dragons had not conceded a goal in the competition in 549 minutes before Chiesa's first-leg strike for Juve. • This is Porto's 24th UEFA Champions League campaign, fewer only than Real Madrid and Barcelona (both 25). The Portuguese side have now qualified for the last 16 on each of their last four appearances in the group stage. • Porto's 2019/20 UEFA Champions League campaign lasted a single tie, Krasnodar beating them on away goals in the third qualifying round (1-0 a, 2-3 h). They went on to finish first in a UEFA Europa League section including Rangers, Young Boys and Feyenoord, but were beaten by Bayer Leverkusen in the round of 32 (1-2 a, 1-3 h). • Porto have lost four of their last 11 matches in the UEFA Champions League proper (W6 D1). • The 2-0 win at Marseille on Matchday 4 ended the Dragons' run of three straight away defeats in the UEFA Champions League proper; they had been unbeaten in the previous five (W2 D3) before that sequence of losses and have now been victorious in their last two away games. • Sérgio Conceição's side won the club's eighth domestic double in 2019/20, claiming Porto's 29th league title and a 17th Portuguese Cup. • Porto's record in the round of 16 is W4 L7; they have won only two of their last six ties although they were victorious in the most recent, against Roma in 2018/19 (1-2 a, 3-1 h aet). • That loss at Roma two seasons ago means Porto have yet to win away in the UEFA Champions League round of 16, where their record on the road is D4 L7. • A 3-0 win at Roma in the 2016/17 UEFA Champions League play-off second leg is Porto's only victory in their last eight visits to Italy (D2 L5), and was their first there since a 3-2 success at AC Milan in the 1996/97 group stage. • Porto have won 34 of the 42 UEFA competition ties in which they recorded a home first-leg victory, although they lost the last, against Bayern München in the 2014/15 UEFA Champions League quarter-finals (3-1 h, 1-6 a). When winning the home first leg 2-1 their aggregate record is W2 L2, with the last two such ties coming at this stage of the UEFA Champions League against English clubs: a victory over Manchester United in Porto's triumphant 2003/04 campaign (1-1 a) preceding a defeat by Arsenal in 2009/10 (0-5 a). • Porto's record in three UEFA penalty shoot-outs is W1 L2: 3-5 v Sampdoria, 1994/95 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup quarter-final 8-7 v Once Caldas, 2004 European/South American Cup 1-4 v Schalke, 2007/08 UEFA Champions League round of 16 Links and trivia • Juventus full-backs Alex Sandro (2011–15) and Danilo (2012–15) both played for Porto.
