The Germany international is taking nothing for granted ahead of the game in Turin, revealing that he has even prepared himself for the possibility of penalties
Despite the two-goal advantage, Neuer says he would rather Bayern pick up where they left off at the Allianz Arena and go in search of the away goal to kill the tie.
"We did well in the Munich encounter, but we cannot just sit on the 2-0 lead," he told reporters on Tuesday. "We want to win the game."
Many have already written Juve off, so dominant were Bayern in the first leg. However, Neuer is ruling nothing out, revealing that he has even braced himself for the possibility of a shoot-out.
Neuer is at least buoyed by the fact that Bayern have arrived in Turin brimming with confidence after clinching their 23rd Bundesliga title at the weekend with a record six rounds to spare.
"It was important to wrap that up and we are obviously delighted," the Germany international said of the 1-0 win at Eintracht Frankfurt. "It's always a bonus to go into a game on the back of a positive result."
