Spurs actually beat Juventus in a pre-season friendly in the summer at Wembley Stadium.
The Londoners won 2-0 against the Serie A title holders with Harry Kane and Dele Alli on the scoresheet.
While Spurs have had their impressive results to quality for the knock-out rounds, Juventus have struggled to impress.
They were battered 3-0 by Barcelona at the Nou Camp – Spurs earned a draw at the Bernabeu – and were held to a draw by Sporting CP.
They won just three of their six group games, and two of them were against Olympiakos.
