Available at Sports Hub Tix (www.sportshubtix.sg) and ranging in price from $45 to $180 for adults and $30 to $45 for children, they will be the hottest tickets in town as star-studded Juventus, whose squad includes creative midfielder Andrea Pirlo, legendary goalkeeper and captain Gianluigi Buffon and Argentine striker Carlos Tevez, prepare to take on a team made up of the Lions and foreign stars from the S.League.

Early birds will receive a 10 per cent discount on tickets - but this offer will only last for as long as Italy remains in the running for the forthcoming FIFA World Cup in Brazil from Jun 12 to Jul 13.

There is also an offer for "teams" of fans who will have the chance to win exclusive access to a Juventus training session by purchasing 11 tickets at one time.

A total of five Juventus players including Pirlo, Buffon and centre back Giorgio Chiellini have been included in Italy's squad for the World Cup.

Juventus enjoyed a record-breaking season on their way to a third consecutive Serie A title. They won 33 games, including all 19 at home, and set a new league record of 102 points.

Juventus has a worldwide fan base of 250 million, driven by their history and pedigree with players like Italian Alessandro Del Piero, Roberto Baggio, and Fabio Cannavaro and Frenchmen Zinedine Zidane and Michel Platini.

The Juventus game will be part of a wealth of world class events that are helping to unveil Singapore's new National Stadium - part of the $1.3 billion Sports Hub project. The 35 hectare site will feature cutting-edge design at an inspirational location.
