Joao Moutinho: 'We can beat Juventus'

Monaco midfielder Joao Moutinho has said that his team can cause a shock against Juventus in their Champions League quarter-final next week.

The Ligue 1 club have already caused a surprise in this season's competition by knocking out Arsenal and Moutinho is confident that they can do the same to the Italian champions.

"The Bianconeri have a great team, even without Paul Pogba, with formidable players and a solid team ethic," Moutinho told Tuttosport.

"They are the favourites to reach the semi-final, but Arsenal were the favourites against us and we still eliminated them.

"We'll do anything to win in Turin and then the home leg, so we must be concentrated for the full 180 minutes. I think we'll have to double our efforts."

Monaco warmed up for their trip to Turin by beating Caen 3-0 on Friday evening.
