Matri & Quagliarella tell Tudor which Juventus striker to start against Milan Juventus manager Igor Tudor might be facing a selection dilemma ahead of Sunday’s clash against Milan, as he has to choose which striker will lead the line. This season, three centre-forwards have been vying for the No.9 role: Dusan Vlahovic, Jonathan David and Loic Openda. ............ Former Juventus striker Alessandro Matri doesn’t agree with Tudor’s reported choice, as he insists that Vlahovic should be ahead in the pecking order, even though his expiring contract is complicating his status at Continassa. “In terms of quality, I’d say Vlahovic, but we know about his contractual issues,” noted the former Cagliari bomber in his interview. “For a club looking to build a project, I don’t know how feasible that is, but of the three strikers they have, I’d always go for Vlahovic.” ............ For his part, Fabio Quagliarella agrees with his former Juventus teammate, as he also believes that Vlahovic has something extra to offer. “I’d start Vlahovic tonight against Milan at the Stadium, despite rumours that David will start,” said the retired striker ............ .

Juventus vs Milan probable lineups: Vlahovic & David vying for a starting spot On Sunday evening, Juventus and Milan will clash heads in one of the most anticipated fixtures of the Serie A calendar. The Bianconeri will host their former manager, Max Allegri, and his Rossoneri band at the Allianz Stadium in Turin. The contest kicks off at 20:45 CET. ............ Pierre Kalulu, Federico Gatti and Lloyd Kelly will start at the back, as Gleison Bremer remains unavailable. Joao Mario and Andrea Cambiaso are expected to take the wings in the 3-4-2-1 formation. While Khephren Thuram is back in the squad, the source still tips Weston McKennie to start alongside Manuel Locatelli in the double pivot. ............ Following his mid-week heroics, Francisco Conceicao will regain his starting berth in the attacking trident, starting alongside Kenan Yildiz. Dusan Vlahovic could lead the line, but Jonathan David could get the nod once more, despite his disappointing showing in Spain. Moreover, Kalulu could start as right wingback instead of Joao Mario, with Daniele Rugani filling in at the back. ............ Juventus Probable XI (3-4-2-1): Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Gatti, Kelly; Joao Mario (Rugani), Locatelli, McKennie, Cambiaso; Conceicao, Yildiz; Vlahovic Milan Probable XI (3-5-2): Maignan; Tomori, Gabbia, Pavlovic; Saelemaekers, Fofana, Modric, Rabiot, Bartesaghi; Pulisic, Gimenez .

Koopmeiners reaches a new low as he is not called up by the Netherlands Will Teun Koopmeiners rediscover his best form at Juventus? This is the question many are now asking after the midfielder endured another difficult spell in Turin. The Dutchman arrived at the Allianz Stadium with a stellar reputation, having established himself as one of Serie A’s finest talents during his time at Atalanta. ............ However, his time in Turin has not lived up to the billing. Last season was disappointing by his own standards, yet the club maintained faith in him. ............ His difficulties at club level have now spilled onto the international arena. Koopmeiners has been omitted from the latest Netherlands squad for technical reasons. This marks a significant moment, as he had previously retained the faith of the Dutch selectors despite his uneven form for Juventus. The decision is a blow to the player’s confidence and highlights the extent of his current struggles. ............ Koopmeiners himself would likely admit that his performances have not been up to standard. For a player of his quality, the current situation represents a clear underachievement. Yet he still has the attributes to succeed, and with consistent support from the coaching staff, Juventus hope he can find his form again. ............ .

Juventus vs AC Milan: Preview and Prediction Two of Italy’s most decorated clubs face off under the Turin lights on Sunday evening, as Juventus welcome AC Milan to the Allianz Stadium in what promises to be a captivating Serie A showdown. Separated by a single point in the standings, both sides have made encouraging starts to the 2025/26 season and see this as a key early test in their title ambitions. For Juventus, consistency has been the main theme under Igor Tudor. The Bianconeri remain unbeaten in Serie A, extending their league run without defeat to 10 matches dating back to April. However, despite the solidity, performances have not been without their flaws. A 1-1 draw against an injury-stricken Atalanta BC last weekend saw them drop valuable points, salvaged only by a late equaliser from Juan Cabal. Tudor’s side have shown attacking improvement, but defensive lapses continue to haunt them, a recurring theme evident again in their Champions League campaign. In midweek, Juventus were involved in yet another thriller, following up their chaotic 4-4 draw with Borussia Dortmund by drawing 2-2 with Villarreal. Despite leading 2-1 heading into the final minutes, they were pegged back by former loanee Renato Veiga’s equaliser. The Croatian coach will be looking for a reaction as Juve return to domestic action, aiming to close the gap on leaders Napoli, AS Roma, and AC Milan. They can take confidence from their 1-0 win over the Rossoneri at this venue in January, though that remains their only victory in the last four meetings between the sides. ............ Team News & Tactics Juventus Juventus head coach Igor Tudor faces a few injury concerns ahead of the weekend clash against AC Milan. The Bianconeri will be without Colombian wing-back Juan Cabal, who sustained a thigh injury just 15 minutes into Wednesday night’s Champions League draw with Villarreal. He now joins Fabio Miretti, who is still recovering from a muscular problem, on the treatment table. However, there is encouraging news for Juventus fans, as both Gleison Bremer and Khephren Thuram are expected to make their returns to the starting lineup. Bremer’s comeback will be a major boost for the defensive unit, while Thuram’s recovery from a minor knock could see him replace Weston McKennie in central midfield. In attack, Tudor faces a pleasant selection dilemma. Dusan Vlahovic, Lois Openda, and Jonathan David are all pushing for a place in the starting XI. Vlahovic remains the natural first-choice striker, but Openda’s energy and David’s versatility could tempt the coach into some tactical reshuffling depending on how the game unfolds. Juventus are expected to line up in a 3-4-2-1 formation. Michele Di Gregorio will retain his spot in goal, shielded by a back three of Federico Gatti, Gleison Bremer, and Lloyd Kelly, who together will aim to contain Milan’s fluid attacking trio. Out wide, Pierre Kalulu and Andrea Cambiaso are likely to occupy the wing-back roles, providing both defensive cover and overlapping runs to support transitions. In midfield, Manuel Locatelli will anchor the play, operating as the deep-lying playmaker, while Khephren Thuram will provide physicality and forward thrust alongside him. Further forward, Francisco Conceicao and Kenan Yildiz will slot in as the two attacking midfielders, drifting into half-spaces to connect with the front line and exploit any gaps in Milan’s defence. At the tip of the formation, Dusan Vlahovic should lead the line, using his aerial prowess and hold-up play to trouble the Rossoneri’s back three. This setup allows Juventus to balance compactness at the back with rapid vertical transitions, a key feature of Tudor’s tactical philosophy. The wing-backs will be crucial in stretching Milan’s shape and providing service into the box for Vlahovic, while the midfield duo will need to match Milan’s intensity to prevent being overrun. Probable Lineup (3-4-2-1): Di Gregorio; Gatti, Bremer, Kelly; Kalulu, Locatelli, Thuram, Cambiaso; Conceicao, Yildiz; Vlahovic AC Milan ............ Probable Lineup (3-5-2): Maignan; De Winter, Gabbia, Pavlovic; Saelemaekers, Fofana, Modric, Rabiot, Bartesaghi; Pulisic, Gimenez Key Stats Juventus and AC Milan have been inseparable in recent years, their last eight Serie A encounters have produced two wins each and four draws. Only eight goals have been scored by either side combined during that period, highlighting how tightly contested and defensively disciplined these fixtures have been. The Bianconeri have kept four consecutive clean sheets against Milan in Serie A, their longest such run in the fixture’s history. The last goal they conceded to the Rossoneri was scored by Olivier Giroud in May 2023, meaning Milan have gone over 400 minutes without scoring against Juventus. Juventus won their most recent home meeting with Milan (2–0 in January 2025), ending Milan’s four-match unbeaten streak in Turin. Interestingly, only one of the last six Serie A clashes between these sides in Piedmont has ended level, a 1–1 draw in September 2021. Igor Tudor’s side are one of only three unbeaten teams in Serie A this season. Their ongoing ten-match unbeaten run (W6 D4) stretches back to April 2025, when they last lost a domestic game, to Parma. This consistency has been built largely on their defensive resilience and efficient counter-attacks. Under Massimiliano Allegri, AC Milan have rediscovered form, winning four consecutive Serie A matches, marking their longest winning streak since April 2024 (under Stefano Pioli). During this run, the Rossoneri have scored eight goals while conceding only twice, reflecting a well-balanced and revitalized side. Player to Watch Dusan Vlahovic All eyes will be on Dusan Vlahovic, Juventus’s prolific frontman, as he leads the line against AC Milan in what promises to be a high-stakes encounter in Turin. The Serbian striker has rediscovered his rhythm under Igor Tudor, combining physical dominance with sharp finishing to reassert himself as one of Serie A’s most lethal forwards. ............ The 24-year-old has scored crucial goals in tight matches this season, often breaking deadlocks when Juventus need inspiration. Against a reshuffled Milan backline missing Fikayo Tomori and Pervis Estupinan, Vlahovic’s physical presence and predatory instincts could prove decisive. If he finds space in the box, Milan’s defence may struggle to contain him for the full ninety minutes. ............ Prediction Juventus 2–1 AC Milan Both Juventus and AC Milan come into this clash in strong domestic form, with unbeaten streaks that underline their credentials as title contenders. Juventus have built their recent success on defensive discipline, conceding very few goals in Serie A this season, while AC Milan’s resurgence under Massimiliano Allegri has been driven by sharp attacking transitions and the creative spark of Christian Pulisic. The hosts’ biggest advantage lies in their defensive solidity and the return of key players such as Bremer and Khephren Thuram, which should restore balance to Igor Tudor’s system. Dusan Vlahovic will look to capitalise on a weakened Milan backline missing Fikayo Tomori and Pervis Estupinan, giving Juventus a slight edge in physical duels inside the box. Milan, however, remain dangerous on the counterattack, especially with Christian Pulisic and Santiago Gimenez capable of punishing any defensive lapses. Yet, the Rossoneri’s lack of defensive stability and fatigue from squad adjustments could tilt the contest in Juventus’s favour. .

Round 6: Juventus vs. AC Milan match preview Even if a certain somebody wasn’t coming back to Turin this weekend, Juventus and AC Milan’s first meeting fo the 2025-26 season would be filled with narrative with how both clubs have started the season. They’re one point apart in the Serie A standings, with Milan sitting atop the table alongside defending champions Napoli and Roma on 12 points. Juve, of course, are just one point behind despite their recent string of draws. ............ This weekend is the first time since their not-so-amicable split a year and a half ago following the Coppa Italia final that Max Allegri will be walking through the tunnel at the Allianz Stadium. But instead of making the turn to the home bench that he’s spent so many years patrolling, he will turn the opposite direction on Sunday night as he makes what he has described as an “emotional” return to Turin for the first time with Milan. He will almost certainly get a warm reception for what he did during his time as Juve manager regardless of how things ended. (And things technically ended with him winning a trophy, so it’s not like it was so bad.) ............ Allegri has the same kind of situation going for him in his first season with Milan that he did during his last campaign with Juventus — no European football and a week to train (and rest his players accordingly) between games. It’s clearly paying off so far, and the proof of that is what they did against Napoli last weekend even with the hurdle to clear of being down to 10 men for the final half hour at the San Siro. So, it’s pretty easy to see that Milan enter Sunday night’s showdown as the more in-form squad. And the much more rested, too. ............ Regardless of the results, Juve manager Igor Tudor says that things are improving. That, of course, is the public-facing view on things, but Tudor has shown during his short time as coach that he is a pretty straight shooter when it comes to how he views his team and the things going on around them. So this is what he had to say about things when asked about the current state of his squad at Saturday’s pre-match pre-match press conference: TEAM NEWS The two big doubts for Juve’s meeting with Milan continue to be Gleison Bremer and Khephren Thuram, who both missed the draw with Villarreal due to their respective injuries. Even if available for selection, neither player is expected to start against the current league leaders. Thuram did return to full training on Satruday, so he looks to be available to face Milan in some capacity. Bremer, however, could miss a second straight game going into the international break after doing individualized training to start the weekend. ............ Dusan Vlahovic appears to be the favorite to start in the No. 9 spot of Tudor’s 3-4-2-1 formation over Jonathan David and Loïs Openda. So if you were hoping for a little continuity up front, it might not be happening this weekend coming out of the midweek fixture. Francisco Conceição is expected to be back in the starting lineup after only being fit enough to come off the bench against Villarreal, a game in which he scored in to give Juve the lead. In a clear sign of just how long his wonderful career has spanned, 40-year-old Luka Modric will be playing against a team managed by his former national team teammate in Tudor, who is seven years his senior. That is pretty nifty. JUVENTUS PLAYER TO WATCH He was the unexpected source of an absolute worldie of a goal midweek. But, at the same time, there is still a lot to be desired about what his primary responsibility on the opposite end of the field. And with Bremer looking like he’s set to probably miss a second straight game, Mr. Cats only becomes that much more important to Juventus’ chances of beating their former manager at the Allianz this weekend. If you were to compare the form that Federico Gatti is displaying at this point of the season compared to 12 months ago, it is a very noticeable difference. For whatever reason, the early-season level Gatti displayed to begin the 2024-25 season has not been the same come the 20245-26 campaign. ............ With Allegri switching to a 3-5-2 a few weeks back, it likely means that Gatti will be going up against more speed in attack rather than a pure No. 9 that is brute force trying to match his brute force. That’s not something you really associated with Santi Giménez, and certainly not with Christian Pulisic — who should combine to form an all-CONCACAF strike partnership against Juventus. So that means Gatti will, like against Villarreal, have a lot of pace and technical ability to try and stop no matter if he’s on the right or in the center of Tudor’s three-man backline. ............ MATCH INFO When: Sunday, Oct. 5, 2025. Where: Allianz Stadium, Turin, Italy.

Del Piero suggests Juventus is under less pressure to win than AC Milan Alessandro Del Piero is expected to tune in and watch Juventus’ match against AC Milan this weekend if he is not present at the stadium. The former Juve icon maintains a keen interest in his old club and, like millions of supporters worldwide, hopes to see the team secure a victory. ............ Del Piero commented on the situation: “The fact that they’re playing in the Champions League doesn’t put any more pressure on them. When you play a game a week, you absolutely have to do it well, so Milan has a huge responsibility. But they’re two teams equipped to do anything.” His remarks highlight the contrasting circumstances both clubs face and underline that Milan’s lighter schedule places expectations on them to perform consistently. Top teams with strong squads, who compete in fewer matches per week, are often seen as having a better opportunity to challenge for domestic titles. Yet Del Piero emphasises that such factors should not be an excuse for Juventus. Elite clubs, he suggests, thrive under pressure and are expected to deliver results regardless of the schedule or the obstacles in front of them. ............ While Juventus may not be considered outright favourites for the clash, the team is determined to demonstrate its ambition in the title race. Del Piero’s insights reinforce the idea that, despite the challenges posed by European commitments and the strength of the opposition, Juventus possess the quality and experience required to compete at the highest level. ............ .
