Champions League: Fabio Capello speaks on favourite clubs to win trophy
Former Real Madrid and England manager, Fabio Capello, has spoken on the favourite clubs that can win this season’s Champions League.
According to Capello, it was too early to say Juventus are the favourites to win the Europe topflight league trophy this term.
He, however, believes that the Serie A champions have shown they have got a Champions League mentality by winning against big European teams.
“Manchester United can count on the structure of their team, the experience and the quality of their champions,” Capello told Italian newspaper, La Stampa.
“United deserve the utmost respect and remain an opponent to be feared, but at Old Trafford Juventus impressed with their personality and conviction.
“Are Juventus favourites to win the competition? It’s early.
“What we can say is that Juventus have shown they’ve got a Champions League mentality, tackling the big European commitments with conviction and relaxation.”
Juventus will take on Manchester United on Wednesday night at home in the Champions League fixture.
The Old Lady head to the game after defeating Jose Mourinho’s side 1-0 at Old Trafford last month.
