Marcel Desailly fears for Juventus in Champions League final

Former France defender Marcel Desailly worries for Juventus ahead of facing free-scoring Barcelona in the Champions League final on Saturday night.

Marcel Desailly believes that Juventus won't beat Barcelona in tonight's Champions League final if Lionel Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez play to the best of their ability.

The Catalans are big favourites to dispose of their Italian counterparts and complete part three of a treble in Berlin, having won La Liga and the Copa del Rey in recent weeks.

Luis Enrique's formidable triumvirate has yielded 120 goals between them this season - a European and Spanish record - and Desailly fears for the Bianconeri if the trio are at their collective best.

"I think if Barcelona play at their level, there's no chance for Juventus," the legendary French defender told Perform.

"You can see how many teams have been trying to compete, to press, or to handle the front three of Barcelona.

"The psychological path does not count at all, Barca isn't under pressure, it's a club who has that winning mentality already integrated in their blood, they don't have any pressure."

Juve, who won Serie A and the Coppa Italia, are vying for a treble of their own at Olympiastadion tonight.
