Should Inter Milan win in Turin a few hours earlier, then the Rossoneri would need to beat Juve to stop their oldest foes being crowned Italian champions.
AC Milan enter this fixture sitting in mid-to-upper table contention but trailing leaders Inter by 12 points, effectively ending their Scudetto hopes.
Their recent form has been patchy, with two wins and three defeats in their last five matches across all competitions.
During that stretch, they scored 5 goals and conceded 6, reflecting an attack struggling for fluency and a defence lacking consistency.
At home, Milan remain competitive but not dominant, while away performances have been uneven, contributing to their inconsistent league position.
Key attacking figures Rafael Leao and Christian Pulisic have endured goal droughts, with Pulisic failing to score in 15 league matches.
However, Max Allegri still has a full squad available, with Adrien Rabiot expected to play a key midfield role against his former club.
Santiago Gimenez, Christopher Nkunku, and Niclas Fullkrug offer additional attacking options, while Mike Maignan remains crucial in goal.
Juventus arrive in far stronger domestic form, pushing firmly for Champions League qualification and even an outside chance of second place.
Their last five matches have produced four wins and one draw, with 9 goals scored and just 2 conceded, underlining a disciplined and efficient structure.
Away form has been particularly impressive under Luciano Spalletti, who has transformed the team’s consistency since taking charge.
Juventus have also built a strong defensive record, conceding only once in their last six league matches.
However, injuries to Arkadiusz Milik and Juan Cabal remain concerns, while Dusan Vlahovic is a doubt.
Kenan Yildiz is expected to feature despite a minor knee issue, and he remains one of their most influential attacking outlets alongside Timothy Weah and Weston McKennie.
Historically, this fixture has been tightly contested and often low-scoring.
Juventus have kept clean sheets in five consecutive Serie A meetings with Milan, while the reverse fixture earlier this season ended 0-0. Milan, however, have shown resilience in big matches at home, often frustrating stronger opposition.
Key Pointers;
- Three of the last four Serie A H2Hs ended goalless
- Juventus are unbeaten in their last eight matches across all competitions
- Milan have failed to score more than once per game in their last 10 league fixtures
- Five of the last six head-to-head meetings have produced under 2.5 goals
Juventus have not conceded against Milan in their last five league encounters.
Given Juventus’ defensive solidity and Milan’s recent attacking struggles, this clash points toward another tight encounter.
Milan’s home resilience suggests they can avoid defeat, but Juventus’ momentum makes them difficult to break down.
Prediction; Under 2.5 goals with a Draw
