Turin (Italy): Juventus coach Maurizio Sarri believes his side need to enjoy themselves more if they are going to have any chance of ending their 24-year wait for the Champions League trophy. Sarri, 60, will oversee his first Champions League match at home in the Allianz Stadium tonight. Juventus host Bayer Leverkusen in their second Group D clash, having being held 2-2 at Atletico Madrid in their opener. "The Champions League is really the top for a player and coach, but at the same time we should also have fun," Sarri told a pre-match press conference in Turin.

"At the moment it's difficult for Italian teams to be among the favourites. English teams are favourites for obvious reasons but we should be easier on ourselves. The idea is to really cheer up a little bit. Our goal is to go all the way until the Champions League final but it's a competition that can only be determined in certain moments. I'm expecting a good result tomorrow."
