Paulo Dybala is expected to be fit for Juventus’ clash with Tottenham in the Champions League on March 7, according to The Sun.

The newspaper claim that the striker should be ready to feature against Spurs, as he has returned to full training after a hamstring injury kept him from playing for most of January.

Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri confirmed that Dybala was available for selection again and shared that he could feature for the Italian giants against Torino on Sunday.

“Next week, everyone will be available except for Juan Cuadrado,” said the Juventus manager, as quoted by The Sun.

“Dybala is in good condition, but not enough to start.

“He can probably play about 30 minutes [against Torino].”

The 24-year-old striker is a key player for Juventus and has been in tremendous form this season.

Dybala has scored 17 goals in 28 appearances across all competitions and has also registered five assists during this campaign.

The first leg between Tottenham and Juventus ended in a 2-2 draw on Tuesday, with Spurs coming from two goals behind in that game.

OPINION

Watch out Tottenham. While Spurs go into the second leg of the Champions clash against Juventus with two vital away goals to their name, Dybala could easily grab a brace at Wembley. The 24-year-old is always likely to grab a goal and he will be keen to score after recently returning from injury. Juventus may have managed to score two goals without him against Spurs, but they were arguably avoidable if the Tottenham defence hadn’t made any mistakes. However, even if Spurs’ defence played perfectly in their next match against Juventus, Dybala is still like to score due to his tremendous ability. All Spurs can do is hope that he will still be a bit rusty after missing several games in January due to his injury.
