Team: Porto vs Juventus
Game time: 2-18 04:00
On February 18th at 4:00 am Beijing time, Juventus will usher in the first round of the Champions League one-eighth final match with Porto on the road. Porto is currently ranked 2nd in the domestic league table, and is still 7 points behind the top of the table with one more game to play, making it more and more difficult to win the Champions League. Statistically, Porto's offensive firepower is still strong this season, but the quality of their defense is quite poor compared to other teams ranked in the upper echelons of the table. Juventus has been the dominant force in Serie A for many years, but this season they have appointed a new manager, Pirlo, and there have been many changes in the management, which will probably make them give up the league title. After all, judging from the current standings, Juventus has already fallen behind the top of the table, Inter, by more than 8 points with one game less, and in the case of Milan duo, it will be difficult for them to realize a comeback. Let's look forward to their performance! Red Plate Sports will bring you the exciting live broadcast!
