Careful Juve: Tottenham lead the Uefa ranking

Serie A giants Juventus were drawn with Premier League giants Tottenham in the Round of 16 draw for the UEFA Champions League.

Mauricio Pochettino’s men finished top of the group and Juventus finished second behind Barcelona in their group. Spurs have though, beaten the Old Lady in a pre-season friendly that saw Pochettino’s men run out 2-0 winners at Wembley.

The draw could have been kinder for both the sides, but could have been worse as well. Spurs were the highest ranked side in the Champions League on the basis of points though, despite having both Borussia Dortmund and reigning Champions Real Madrid in their group.

Here’s how teams rank in the rankings table.
