Saturday evening sees Juventus back in action at the Allianz Stadium, with AC Milan visiting for a game of real importance. Kick-off in Turin is set for 18:00 CEST.

With the fight for second place still open, the result on Saturday is likely to play a part in determining who of the Bianconeri or the Rossoneri finish the season as runners-up in Serie A.

Ahead of Saturday’s game, here are ten things to know about the Rossoneri.

  1. AC Milan are the side to have won the most matches against Juventus in Serie A history with 53. They are also the team against whom Juventus have drawn the most times (56).
  2. Juventus haven’t managed to do a Serie A double over Milan since 2018/19, but are in a position to do so again this season after their 1-0 win at the San Siro back in October.
  3. Milan have failed to beat Juventus in six of the last seven meetings between the two in which the Rossoneri began the game ahead of the Bianconeri in the Serie A table, with Juventus winning three of those.
  4. Milan have scored more goals from corners than anybody in Serie A this season with 11, though Juventus are the side to have conceded the fewest from corners (two).
  5. Milan are the side to have conceded the fewest goals from headers this season (two), though one of those came last time out to Francesco Acerbi of Inter.
  6. No side in Serie A has conceded more goals from outside the box than Milan’s 10. Across the last 20 seasons, they have only fared worse in 2019/20 (11).
  7. With 15 goals scored from substitutes this season, no Serie A side has enjoyed more effective substitutions than Milan. Their tally is a record for the era of three points for a win.
  8. Having scored last time he visited the Allianz Stadium, Olivier Giroud could become the first Milan player to score in his first two away games at Juventus in the three-points-for-a-win era.
  9. Rafael Leto has been involved in seven goals in 10 Serie A appearances since February with four goals and three assists. In that period, only Paulo Dybala (eight) and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (also eight) have more.
  10. Ruben Loftus-Cheek is enjoying his best-ever scoring season this term, having equalled his 2018/19 tally of six goals, then with Chelsea. In all, he has been involved in seven Serie A goals (six goals and one assist) this season and has only once done better (again in 2018/19 with eight - six goals and two assists).
