After the Christmas mini-truce, Juventus is playing big from the first weeks of 2021. After Udinese, Sunday at the end of the 15e Serie A day, Cristiano Ronaldo and company will indeed meet in quick succession three of the top four in the standings: the leader, AC Milan, in San Siro, Sassuolo (4e ) in Turin then Inter Milan (2e ) back to San Siro!

Remake of 2016?
A hell of a program for this Juve reworked by Andrea Pirlo, a novice coach whose first months have alternated the good (first place in the group in the Champions League) and the less good (already six draws in the league and a fair 3-0 home defeat before Christmas against Fiorentina).
Only sixth in the third of the championship, ten points from Milan, here are the Bianconeri deprived of joker. A situation of “hunters” reminiscent of the 2015-2016 season where, after a failed start to the season (12e after ten days), Juve had chained 26 victories in 28 matches to win – as usual – the scudetto.
While waiting for Juve to regain its solidity, the two Milanese teams will try to follow up. AC Milan will try to preserve its first place on the ground of the catchy Benevento (10e ). Inter Milan, one point behind the Rossoneri, are aiming for their eighth consecutive victory against another promotion team, Crotone (19e ).
