The match between Juventus Turin and AC Milan, Sunday evening at 8:45 p.m., is the absolute duel of Serie A. The two traditional Italian clubs have the same number of points, 69, and face each other in a direct duel for qualification in the Champions League, having already been eliminated from European competitions this season.
Juve will not be Italian champions this season, for the first time after nine consecutive years. Inter Milan won the Scudetto on the final day, leaving the Turinese to fight for a place in the top four. So far, they are in third place with 69 points, but the gap to fifth place is only two points. However, Juventus have already secured their place in the European Champions League, and the buffer to lower places can no longer be taken away from them.
Milan also have legitimate Champions League hopes. Having managed to snatch the fall championship away from city rivals Inter, AC have not been consistent enough in the second half of the season, but are still in the race for the CL. With the same number of points as Juve, Milan are one place behind.

Juventus: news and form
Juve are doing well at the moment and are well on their way to the Champions League. Andreas Pirlo’s men have not lost their last three games, including two wins. In the longer term, the trend is also positive, as the Turinese have lost only two of their last twelve games since the beginning of March. As the Scudetto was not enough this year and the dream of a CL title was destroyed very early on, all forces will now be focused on qualifying for the elite. But to achieve this, coach Andrea Pirlo will need to master his faltering defense, which has never gone without conceding a goal in his last eleven games.
Juve take the majority of their points at home this year. The team lost just two games at the Allianz Stadium in Turin and collected 41 points in 17 games. Only Inter Milan have a better record. The current winning streak is three games in a row, and Juve are even unbeaten at home against Milan in eleven games. The defense also seems safer at home, where the Turinese have conceded just 13 goals and have the best record in the championship.
AC Milan: news and form
Milan had to watch their city rivals slowly but steadily snatch the championship away in the second half of the season. After the first half of the season, AC Milan were still leading the league, but could not maintain this level and slipped in the standings. The team played too irregularly in the second half of the season. Last weekend’s 2-0 win over Benevonto was preceded by two losses, but before that Milan had gone four games unbeaten (three wins). After a long dream period, Milan are now fourth in the league and have been knocked out of the Europa League against Manchester United.
But the season is not over yet, reaching the Champions League would at least be a partial success. Against a strong Juve, a win would be a big help, but it would also be a difficult task. However, AC Milan travel to Turin as the best away side of the league and could secure at least one title this season, albeit unofficially. AC Milan have lost just two of their 16 away games and have already collected 40 points. In the important duel with Juventus, this record could be further extended.

Offensively, Juve and Milan are absolute top teams. Both have already scored over 60 league goals, scoring almost twice per game. Juve have failed to score in just two of their 18 home games this season, while Milan have failed to score in as many away games. Moreover, Juve have always conceded at least one goal in their last eleven games, AC Milan only managed to end such a streak of nine games on the last day. We therefore expect a game rich in goals from both teams.

Of course, Cristiano Ronaldo once again played a key role in Juve’s success. The 36-year-old striker does not appear to be aging and has already scored 27 league goals this season. In the last game against Udinese, he scored a brace to give the Old Lady a 2-1 victory. He leads the Serie A scorers’ standings with a six-goal lead over Romelu Lukaku. We believe the tireless CR7 will score again.
