Intro:

Juventus head coach Massimiliano Allegri and Monaco head coach Leonardo Jardim look ahead to their Champions League quarter-final.

Script:

SOUNDBITE (Italian) Massimiliano Allegri, Juventus coach:

(on Juventus' 'favourites' tag).

"They call us the favourites, but in quarter-finals I believe that one squad may be a little bit more the favourites than the other. But for us will be very difficult to go through to the semi-final if we don't play with the same way technically and mentally as we did against (Borussia) Dortmund. Actually, I think that these two matches are more complex."

SOUNDBITE (Portuguese) Leonardo Jardim, Monaco coach:

(on Monaco being the 'underdogs' in the tie)

"Juventus are the favourites in this clash, not only because of their quality as a team but essentially for their experience. All the Juventus players have an impressive 'curriculum vitae'. They are all players over twenty-three and for that they will always the favourites."

SOUNDBITE (Italian) Massimiliano Allegri, Juventus coach

"It was a surprise, but then I think that Monaco really deserve this quarter-final. A squad that in the group phase has eliminated Benfica at Zenit (St. Petersburg) and conceded just one goal in six matches. Let's say that, including the last 16 round, has conceded just four goals and scored seven, that's something. And overall I guess they have the best defence in France."

SOUNDBITE (Portuguese) Leonardo Jardim, Monaco coach:

(on his side's intention to get an away goal).

"As usual, we are going to work on the pitch. Tomorrow we're going to play our game always having all due respect for Juventus but with the ambition to score an important goal, but at the same time remain aware of the real quality of our opponents."
