ZINEDINE ZIDANE has revealed Juventus are the side he is keen to avoid in Monday's Champions League draw.

The Real Madrid manager saw his side let slip a 2-0 lead against Borussia Dortmund, with Marco Reus scoring a late equaliser at the Bernabeu Stadium.

A win against the Bundesliga side would have meant that Los Blancos would finish as group winners, but finishing second has left Zidane fearing one team in particular.

He said: "I don't want to face Juventus for two reasons.

"But we can't do anything about that we just have to wait for the draw on Monday."

The 1998 World Cup winner spent five years playing for the Old Lady between 1996 and 2001, and knows the Serie A giants provide the most difficult challenge out of the remaining group winners.

Madrid are the reigning Champions League winners, and luckily for them, cannot face Barcelona or Atletico Madrid in the next round as they from the same country.

However, they can face side English sides Arsenal and Leicester, but Zidane failed to even mention them as potential threats they could be matched with.

Instead he paid his respect his side who matched a club record of going 34 games undefeated in all competitions.

He said: "The players deserve the congratulations.

"They are the ones who fight and run in every game."

Leicester are in their first Champions League campaign, and would relish a visit to the Spanish capital.

Arsenal on the other hand have exited the last 16 in each of the last six seasons, and their fans are desperate for the North London club to repeat the success they had in 2006 where they reached the final.

Incidentally, they knocked out Real Madrid that year in the last 16 where they went on to also beat Juventus in the next round.
