Contrasting form from Group H rivals

Juventus will be hoping that the addition of Cristiano Ronaldo will be the measure needed for them to finally win the Champions League again, having gone close on several occasions since they last lifted the trophy in 1996.

The pursuit of greatness will be challenging from the off, with a tough away trip to Valencia to start and with clashes with Manchester United to come. Juve are rightly expected to win Group H and have began the season brightly, winning all four of their matches so far.

Valencia are in contrasting form. They have not won a league game this season (D3 L1) and are currently 17th in La Liga. New strikers Michy Batshuayi and Kevin Gameiro have yet to find the net, which has been a big obstacle to Marcelino's team reaching the heights of last season when they finished fourth.

Ronaldo a huge price to score

Ronaldo opened his account for his new club at the weekend, as he scored both goals in a 2-1 win over Sassuolo.

He is a player that lives for the big occasion who always delivers in the Champions League. The all-time top scorer in the competition with 120 goals, no player has outscored Ronaldo in a Champions League season in any of the last six campaigns.

Considering the player's pedigree and that he has scored his first goals for Juventus, he is available at a huge price to find the net. Back Ronaldo to score at 2.20.
