Juventus v Villarreal live stream: How to watch the Champions League from anywhere in the world
Watch a Juventus v Villarreal live stream as the Yellow Submarine head to Turin
Juventus v Villarreal live stream, BT Sport, Wednesday 16 March, 8pm GMT
Juventus and Villarreal will battle it out for a place in the quarter-finals of the Champions League on Wednesday.
These two teams could not be separated in the first leg in Spain. Juventus took the lead early on through Dusan Vlahovic, who drew first blood after just 31 seconds - the second-fastest goal in the history of the competition.
That early strike put Max Allegri's side in a strong position, but they failed to build on their lead and allowed Villarreal back into the game. A bolder approach from Juventus could have put the tie beyond the Yellow Submarine, but Villarreal were good value for the draw that was given to them by a Dani Parejo goal in the 66th minute.
After an underwhelming first half of the campaign, there are signs that Juventus are slowly becoming a force again. The Serie A title will almost certainly be beyond them this term, but the Bianconeri have now gone 15 league games unbeaten. They also finished ahead of Chelsea in their Champions League group and should not be written off in this competition.
Villarreal have also improved as this season has worn on. Unsurprisingly for a team managed by Unai Emery, Villarreal have a strong defensive record: only Sevilla and Real Madrid have shipped fewer goals in La Liga this term.
Juventus will have to make do without Alex Sandro, Leonardo Bonucci, Weston McKennie, Federico Chiesa, Denis Zakaria and Kaio Jorge, but Giorgio Chilleini and Paulo Dybala are in line to feature after recent injury issues.
Raul Albiol faces a race against time to be fit for Villarreal after feeling his hamstring at the weekend. Ruben Pena, Paco Alcacer and Alberto Moreno are confirmed absentees, while Juan Foyth, Gerard Moreno and Etienne Capoue will need to be assessed by the medical staff in the run-up to kick-off.
Kick-off is at 8pm GMT and the game is being shown live on BT Sport 3 in the UK.

Use a VPN to watch a Juventus v Villarreal live stream from outside your country
If you’re on holiday or just simply out of the country, your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows exactly where you are from your IP address. Your access to the game will be automatically blocked, which is annoying if you’ve paid a subscription fee and don't want to use an illegal stream that decides to buffer at the worst possible moment. And that's where we recommend ExpressVPN (more on which below).
All you need to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to get beyond such aggravations (assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs). A VPN creates a private connection between your device and the internet, meaning suppliers can’t work out where you are and what you’re doing. The info going to and from is entirely encrypted.
There are plenty of options out there, including:
ExpressVPN including a 30-day, money-back guarantee
FourFourTwo’s brainy office mates TechRadar love its super speedy connections, trustworthy security and the fact it works with Android, Apple, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, PS4 and loads more. You also get a money-back guarantee, 24/7 support and it's currently available for a knockdown price. Go get it!
NordVPN with quality mobile and desktop apps
A cheaper option and almost ExpressVPN's equal when it comes to quality, too. A single subscription covers six connections, so you can use it on mobile, laptop, streaming devices and more, all at the same time.
Surfshark offers a great VPN at a fraction of the price
It's clear to see why Surfshark is top of TechRadar's best cheap VPN table – it combines an excellent product with bargain pricing, starting at £2/$2.50 a month!
