(Reuters) - Juventus host Manchester City in a clash on Wednesday between two European giants who are struggling in the Champions League and manager Thiago Motta said his young side must be at their best to cause problems for the visitors.

Juve, who are 19th but level on eight points with 17th-placed City after five games, won their first two matches in Europe's top club competition but suffered a shock 1-0 loss to VfB Stuttgart before drawing at Lille and Aston Villa.
