It’s a battle of titans, both struggling to find their A-game. AC Milan has not lost in four games, and Juventus is only trailing four points behind Milan. With 17 points, a win for Juve here would bring them dangerously close to Milan in the league standings.
But there’s drama! Nicolò Fagioli, a promising Juventinno, has been caught betting, along with another Italian Newcastle player, Sandro Tonali. Fagioli, one of Juventus’ future brightest stars, is facing a possible year-long suspension, an absence that Juventus will surely regret.
On the other side, AC Milan will be happy to have seen Christian Pulisic shine with the national team again. Yes, this showdown is packed with twists, turns and uncertainty about how both teams will set up.

AC Milan vs Juventus Prediction and Odds
- Pick: AC Milan to win
- Odds: +125 (Tonybet)
This score could get anywhere, but the current drama around Fagioli and the fact that most players did not have a good campaign during the international break at Juventus indicates low morale. AC Milan, however, has a loaded arsenal with players like Leao, Pulisic, and Giroud. Keep an eye on Bremer, Juve’s best defender, as Milan’s firepower could center around him.
AC Milan vs Juventus Betting Tips
- Pick: Both teams to score and Milan to win
- Odds: +384 (Tonybet)
AC Milan’s style, often revolving around isolating and finding its strengths against its opponent, is likely to be troublesome for Juventus.
The likes of Pulisic, Musah, Reijnders and Tomori, besides the obvious Leao, all hint towards a sure win for the most in-form team in Italy. Stats back them, too – AC Milan has produced high-chances opportunities regularly, as seen against Cagliari (Above 3xG) and Lazio (2.69 xG).
It is also a crucial match to win for Il Rossoneri, as they will face Paris Saint-Germain three days later – they drew against Dortmund and PSG lost against Newcastle. This indicates that AC Milan will have to work hard to remain leaders in Italy while striving for more in Europe.
