The 2022-23 Serie A season has begun in a surprisingly strange manner with Napoli, Atalanta, Udinese, and Lazio making up the top four teams in the league table.
Serie A holders AC Milan find themselves in 5th place with 17 points, and a win will tie them equal on points with league leaders Napoli, albeit after having played an extra game. The 3-0 loss to Chelsea in the Champions League must have dampened the spirits of the Milan players, but they should be able to put on a good show against Juventus.
Speaking of which, the former champions have dropped 7 points in their last 5 games, resulting in them dropping to 8th place in the league. They have been underwhelming in the league, but a win against their rivals could spark new life into them.
AC Milan vs Juventus confirmed lineups
AC Milan XI (4-3-3): Tatarusanu; Kalulu, Gabbia, Tomori, Theo; Bennacer, Tonali, Pobega; Brahim, Leao, Giroud
Juventus XI (4-4-2): Szczesny; Danilo, Bonucci, Bremer, Sandro; Cuadrado, Locatelli, Rabiot, Kostic; Milik, Vlahovic
