Juventus vs AC Milan prediction, preview, team news and more | Serie A 2021-22
The Serie A is set to witness a massive fixture between two bonafide giants this weekend as Juventus lock horns with AC Milan on Sunday. Both teams have excellent players in their ranks and will be intent on winning this game.
AC Milan have shown tremendous improvement over the past year and have excelled in the Serie A. Stefano Pioli's charges lost out on a five-goal thriller against Liverpool earlier this week and will need to bounce back in this match.
Juventus, on the other hand, are in 16th place in the league table at the moment and are yet to win a game this season. The Bianconeri have been shockingly poor in the Serie A and cannot afford another debacle this weekend.
Getting battle-ready for the big one 👊
