Raúl Albiol: ‘In Mestalla Juventus will suffer for sure, Valencia CF have chances to win’
At 33, Raúl Albiol is one of the pillars of SSC Naples. He was formed in the Academy of Valencia CF. After four seasons with the first team between 2005 and 2009 he moved on, and in the last season he fought until the end for the title of the 'Serie A' to Juventus, first rival of Valencia CF in the 'Group H' of the UEFA Champions League.
They are a difficult opponent and is one of the favorites to win the Champions League.
How do you see Juventus?
They are a difficult opponent, this year they signed good players who have reinforced a good team and is one of the favorites to win the Champions League. But especially in Mestalla, Valencia CF can create problems.
What is their biggest strenght?
Above all, the whole team, it is a strong team defensively and with the addition of Cristiano Ronaldo this season, the counterattacks will be dangerous.
You know the atmosphere of Mestalla, when playing the first game at home, do Valencia CF have real options to win?
Juventus in Mestalla will suffer for sure, I think that at home Valencia CF have many chances to win.
What’s your opinion on Valencia CF after having started LaLiga with three draws?
They have been reinforced very well, especially in attack. It is the second year of Marcelino, a team that is already well understood, it’s good to give it some continuity and I’m sure they will be up there at the end of LaLiga.
