The Bundesliga outfit were beaten 2-1 in the first leg of the round-of-16 tie, but Kohler feels the Serie A champions are vulnerable at the back and expects BVB to turn things around.
"I am confident BVB will qualify for the quarter-finals. Juventus might be top of the Serie A table but they have a number of weaknesses," Kohler - who played for both Juventus and Dortmund during his career - told Bild.
"Buffon once was an extraordinary goalkeeper, but he is no longer the shot stopper he once was. He has been making quite a few mistakes lately. Juventus are vulnerable in defence.
"The result of the first leg is a very dangerous one for Juventus. Dortmund are always capable of punishing them if they sit too deep. Players like Marco Reus and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang can score a goal from out of nowhere.
"My prediction? I think Dortmund will go 3-0 up and eventually win the match 3-1."
Juventus will be without Andrea Pirlo in Wednesday's return at the Signal Iduna Park after he failed to recover in time from a calf injury, while Nuri Sahin is unavailable for BVB.
