Juventus arrive to another final with the aim of getting the treble after winning their sixth straight Scudetto and after beating Lazio in the Coppa Italia final. Allegri’s side has played really well this season, knocking out Porto, Barcelona and Monaco in their way to the final, only conceding one goal. In all the competition, Buffon has conceded three goals, so they are the best defense in the tournament, with the BBC (Bonucci, Barzagli and Chiellini). Real Madrid will have to keep a close eye on Dybala and Higuaín, the threat of this team. Pjaca is the only player unavailable.

Real Madrid travel to Wales with the aim of making history, winning back-to-back titles in the Champions League. Los Blancos won La Liga title only 14 days ago and they could win the double more than 50 years later. For this goal, Cristiano Ronaldo is on fire, scoring 8 goals in the last two rounds of the competition. Isco should play instead of Gareth Bale, still trying to recover from injury. Zinedine Zidane will try to become the first manager able to win the competition in his first two years on the bench.

Juventus (5-3-2): Buffon; Sandro, Chiellini, Bonucci, Barzagli, Dani Alves; Khedira, Pjanic; Dybala, Mandzukic and Higuaín.
Real Madrid (4-4-2): Keylor Navas, Marcelo, Sergio Ramos, Varane, Carvajal; Casemiro, Kroos, Modric, Isco; Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Juventus are one of the toughest teams in Europe, as they’ve shown in the competition, thrashing Barcelona at Torino or not conceding any goal at Camp Nou. However, Los Blancos have scored in every single game this season and we should be confident after the great performances showed in the last month of competition. Besides, Cristiano Ronaldo is on fire and we’re convinced he will be the man of the match.

Last time both teams met was in the semi-finals of the competition in 2015. Then, the Vecchia Signora knocked out Los Blancos with a victory at Juventus Stadium (2-1) and a draw (1-1) at Santiago Bernabéu with a goal scored by Morata. These two teams also met in the Champions League final in 1998 in Amsterdam. Real Madrid won the trophy with an unforgettable goal scored by Pedja Mijatovic.
