Overview

• Massimiliano Allegri called Juventus–Milan a beautiful match and emphasized focus on incremental progress rather than sentiment in his pre-match remarks.
• Fikayo Tomori is available, with left-back set to be filled by either Davide Bartesaghi or Athekame in place of the suspended Pervis Estupiñan; Rafael Leão and Christopher Nkunku are building fitness.
• Juventus enter on four straight draws across competitions and a leaky stretch at the back, losing Cabal for about six weeks to a biceps femoris injury as Di Gregorio returns in goal and Bremer is available.
• Milan arrive in strong form after beating Napoli, sit atop the table, and boast the league’s second-best defensive record with three goals conceded in Serie A.
• The touchline subplot features Igor Tudor’s positive history against Allegri, while local reporting expects a warm reception for the former Juventus coach at the Allianz Stadium.
