Boost for Tottenham as Dybala ruled a Champions League doubt for Juventus

Paulo Dybala may not return from a thigh injury in time to take on Tottenham in the Champions League last 16, Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri has warned.

Dybala has not played since a 1-0 win over Cagliari on January 6, although Juve have won each of their three games since then without conceding.

Indeed, the Bianconeri's run of consecutive victories stretches back nine games, a sequence that has maintained their position a point behind Napoli at the top of Serie A.

Federico Bernardeschi and Douglas Costa both picked up injuries at Atalanta in midweek, but he will not rush Dybala back.
