Manchester City, Juve to play for pride

Tonight's Europa League clash between Manchester City and Juventus may not affect either side's fate as Juventus are out and City are through, but both teams will not play easy.

The Italians do not want to end their Europa campaign with a home defeat. They are unbeaten in the group, but have suffered from too many draws. Now they have a chance to salvage some pride against super-rich City and Roberto Mancini, who through his associations with Inter will not be too popular with Juve fans.

Juventus defender Leonard Bonucci said: "The Man City doesn't mean anything for the standings, but it does mean alot for our pride," Leonard Bonucci said recently. We are Juventus, and we always go on the pitch to win."
