Gordon Brunt
The adoring fans of Gianluigi Buffon will be robbed, once again, of the chance to see the famous Juventus 'keeper hoist football's most coveted prize. Similar to the 2015 final against Barcelona, the timing isn't on Juve's side as the Serie A champion attempts to dethrone a Real Madrid squad bursting with confidence on the heels winning La Liga, as well as dismantling Bayern Munich and humbling the great Manuel Neuer in the semi-finals.

Although Cristiano Ronaldo and company have the almighty challenge of attempting to penetrate Juve's defensive fortress, expect Buffon to lead the charge when the Bianconeri collect their runners-up medals.

Score: Real Madrid 2, Juventus 1
