New Juventus starlet Kingsley Coman warned Atletico Madrid that they’ll “attack, win and top the Champions League group.”

The Bianconeri were held to a 0-0 draw by Fiorentina last night and are now preparing for Tuesday’s showdown in Europe.

A point will be enough to qualify, but a victory by two clear goals would send Juve through as group winners.

“We dropped important points in the first few games, but then became more efficient,” Coman told JTV.

New Juventus starlet Kingsley Coman warned Atletico Madrid that they’ll “attack, win and top the Champions League group.”

The Bianconeri were held to a 0-0 draw by Fiorentina last night and are now preparing for Tuesday’s showdown in Europe.

A point will be enough to qualify, but a victory by two clear goals would send Juve through as group winners.

“We dropped important points in the first few games, but then became more efficient,” Coman told JTV.

“It will be a great game against Atletico, open to any result. We must not defend or think about a draw, as we need to attack, win and top the Champions League group.”

The stalemate at the Stadio Franchi was Coman’s second Serie A start, but the former PSG prodigy is still looking for his first goal.

“It was a difficult game, we returned to the 3-5-2 system and initially struggled defensively. Before stepping on to the field everyone encouraged me, including the kit staff, but above all Pogba and Evra.

“This is an important point, but I think with our quality we could’ve brought home all three. We know there’s this constant duel with Roma, as both teams have to give everything in every game to stay in the race.

“Italian football is much more tactical than the French game. It’s less physical and more played with the mind.”

Max Allegri seems certain to go back to a four-man defence against Atletico Madrid with Stephan Lichtsteiner and Simone Padoin as full-backs.

Carlos Tevez and Claudio Marchisio were rested in Florence, but it remains to be seen who will start between Alvaro Morata and Fernando Llorente.

Meanwhile, Atletico secured a 2-0 Liga victory away to Elche today and Diego Simeone assured they were "not thinking about Tuesday."

 

Juventus (probable): Buffon; Lichtsteiner, Bonucci, Chiellini, Padoin; Marchisio, Pirlo, Pogba; Vidal; Tevez, Morata
