Real Madrid have been showing improvement in each match of the group stage. In the opening match, they were held to a 1-1 draw by Al Hilal. After that, Los Blancos defeated Pachuca and Salzburg to take the top spot. In which, the most impressive match of the "White Vultures" was the 3-0 victory over Salzburg in the final match of the group stage.

However, coach Xabi Alonso also admitted that the big problem with Real Madrid is building a style of play in a short time, with a very tight schedule. That is the reason why Los Blancos have not really become the form that Xabi Alonso wants. At this point, they still rely on the brilliance of the stars, but have not built a true team.
Mbappe's return is both good news and a challenge for Real Madrid. That's because the French striker played very well last season and will add quality to the team's attack. In the three matches of the group stage, when Mbappe was absent, coach Xabi Alonso was forced to use young striker Gonzalo Garcia to fill in.
However, Mbappe has not had much time to get used to Xabi Alonso's new system. Therefore, using him in the match against Juventus is like a "double-edged sword". Sometimes, Mbappe's selfishness can break the collective element.
So even though they are rated higher than Juventus, Real Madrid does not necessarily make fans feel secure.

Juventus also changed their coach before the tournament when they appointed coach Igor Tudor to replace Thiago Motta. In the group stage, the Old Lady won big against Al Ain and Wydad but also lost 2-5 to Man City.
However, Igor Tudor can be forgiven for leaving out many key players in the match against Man City. Moreover, the heavy defeat against the Manchester team will help the Croatian strategist learn many lessons.
Don't be surprised if Juventus go into the match against Real Madrid with a more pragmatic approach. They could cause a lot of trouble for Xabi Alonso's team.
