Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri says that he is treating tonight's Champions League last-16 second leg against Tottenham Hotspur as a final.

Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri has described tonight's Champions League last-16 second leg as a final.

Either the Serie A giants or Mauricio Pochettino's men will grab a place in the quarter-finals of the elite competition.

Both teams will take to the Wembley pitch with the tie evenly poised at 2-2, but Tottenham have a slight advantage with two away goals.

The Premier League outfit were 2-0 down after 10 minutes, but goals from Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen secured an impressive draw for Spurs.

During his pre-match press conference, Allegri told reporters: "I don't know how Spurs are going to play. We'll have to be a lot better technically than in the first game, particularly the second half. For us it's like a final.

"We have to put in a performance and get a result, otherwise we'll be going out. We have to be very positive. That's the approach we need to take. They like to keep possession, keep the ball moving and we need to disrupt that."

Allegri has guided Juve to the final twice in three years, but the club lost on both occasions.
