Later, all eyes will be on the San Siro stadium, which will host the biggest clash of the weekend in Serie A.
Before the match against Milan, the official website of Juventus provided us with the most interesting statistics and data prior to the match.
The Bianconeri have had the upper hand in recent years, winning six of their nine away meetings against the Rossoneri and outscoring their foes 14 to seven.
The last time the Diavolo emerged victorious against the Old Lady in the first meeting of the season was in October 2016, courtesy of a wonderful strike from a teenager by the name of Manuel Locatelli.
Last season, the two teams drew on both occasions. Only twice in history have the two rivals shared the spoils in three or more games in a row (between 1972 and 1973 and then between 1938 and 1939).
Juve’s Serbian duo have been decisive of late, contributing directly to eight of the club’s last 12 goals. Dusan Vlahovic scored five while Filip Kostic has two assists and a goal to his name (with Vlahovic assisting).
Adrien Rabiot scored his first Serie A goal against Milan, and in memorable fashion. The Frenchman has been Max Allegri’s lucky charm this season. Juventus have only conceded one league goal with him on the pitch, winning 50% of their games and never conceding defeat.
Finally, Wojciech Szczesny has made more penalty saves against Milan than any other Serie A team (3 out of 9), two during his time at Juventus, against Franck Kessié and Gonzalo HiguaÃn.
