Veteran Coach Giovanni Trapattoni believes Juventus are 'advantaged' in facing Bayern Munich and Inter in close succession.

The Bianconeri host the Nerazzurri tonight at 19:45 GMT, in the same week that saw them draw 2-2 against Champions League giants Bayern Munich.

“For Juventus, playing against Inter a few days after Bayern is an advantage, it will make it impossible for them to lose concentration,” he told Tuttosport.

Veteran Coach Giovanni Trapattoni believes Juventus are 'advantaged' in facing Bayern Munich and Inter in close succession.

The Bianconeri host the Nerazzurri tonight at 19:45 GMT, in the same week that saw them draw 2-2 against Champions League giants Bayern Munich.

“For Juventus, playing against Inter a few days after Bayern is an advantage, it will make it impossible for them to lose concentration,” he told Tuttosport.

“I see myself a little bit in Allegri, who is always so practical and optimistic. But I like Mancini a lot, too. Inter's decline in 2016 is physiological.

“February and March are the months when a Coach gets contacted by other clubs. It's always been this way and I'm convinced that Mancini and Allegri too received some offers.

“I think Roberto will stay in Milan. As for Max, I'm not his manager, but I'd tell him what a friend used to tell me in turn: 'remember that if you're happy in your wood, then be careful before going to another, because the more woods you explore the more wolves you meet'.”

Finally, Trapattoni was asked for a forecast on Bayern-Juventus and a comparison between Mauro Icardi and Paulo Dybala.

“The Germans have always been a little arrogant and Juventus have the right players to try reaching the quarter-finals.

“Dybala reminds me of [Omar] Sivori for his imagination and creativity. Icardi is a snake like Paolo Rossi.

“I know that Inter wanted to sign Dybala last summer. They'd have upgraded into the next level with him. Champions can turn a team around.

“[Michel] Platini was able to change my Juventus. These are footballers who change the whole equilibrium of a team.”
