Overview
After an impressive 3-1 win over Real Madrid in the Champions League, AC Milan surprisingly drew 3-3 with Cagliari. Consistency is something that the Rossoneri have not been able to achieve this season. Therefore, they only have 18 points after 11 matches, 6 points behind the top 6 teams in Serie A 2024-2025.
At this point, AC Milan need to accumulate points to keep their hopes of competing for the championship alive. If they cannot quickly improve their performance, coach Paulo Fonseca will face enormous pressure.
However, their opponents in round 13 are Juventus, a team in good form with 24 points after 12 matches. Despite injury problems, they are still in relatively good form.
Notably, Juventus currently has a series of 5 consecutive wins in all competitions. Since the beginning of the season, Juventus has only lost 1 match against Stuttgart in the Champions League by a goal conceded at the end of the second half.
Overall, the match between AC Milan and Juventus in round 13 of Serie A will be extremely exciting, because the quality of personnel on both sides is somewhat even.
In the last 5 matches, AC Milan has 2 wins and 1 loss against Juventus, while the remaining 2 matches ended in a draw. It is not impossible that the draw scenario will repeat itself in this match.
