Juventus and Milan Meet for a Place in Coppa Italia Final

Juventus FC vs AC Milan - 12/06/2020

2057

We have reached the semi-final stage of the 2019/20 Coppa Italia in Italy and have a very exciting game to look forward to on Wednesday the 4th of March. Juventus welcome AC Milan to the Allianz Stadium in a game which will decide which team goes through to play in the final this season.

Juventus were due to play Inter Milan in Serie A on the weekend but the fixture was postponed due to the Coronavirus. This was said to be one of the biggest fixtures of the season in Italy as both teams are in contention to win the title. However, it was not to be and Juventus must now focus on this match.

The Italian champions come into the game having lost their previous outing which was away against Lyon in the Champions League. It was a shock result as Juventus were expected to win the game despite being away from home. However, that was their first defeat in 4 games in all competitions and Juventus will be hoping to get back to winning ways.

Trends show Juventus are very strong at home and they have one each of their last 6 matches in all competitions. All 6 of the results in those 6 games would be good enough to see them progress having drawn 1-1 in the first leg of this tie. Their previous 2 fixtures in the Coppa Italia this season were both at home and Juventus won them 4-0 and 3-1, both of which would be good enough to see them progress to the final if they repeated the scoreline in this game.

AC Milan also saw their Serie A game postponed on the weekend meaning their previous match came the weekend before at Fiorentina. AC Milan came away with a point in a 1-1 draw although they will be disappointed having conceded a late penalty against a team with 10 men. That result means AC Milan have won only one of their last 5 games in all competitions.

That victory came at home against Torino in Serie A. Away form shows AC Milan have lost only one of their last 4 games, all of which have come in Serie A. In addition to the draw at Fiorentina, AC Milan have defeated Cagliari and Brescia.

All 3 of AC Milan’s Coppa Italia matches this season have been played at home and in addition to the first leg of this tie which ended 1-1, they have defeated SPAL and Torino.

Team news and Juventus are without central defender Merih Demiral who has a knee injury. Adrien Rabiot could miss out due to a heel injury while Douglas Costa and Gonzalo Higuain are doubts.

AC Milan have 4 players unavailable due to injury with Gianluigi Donnarumma, Léo Duarte, Rade Krunic and Simon Kjær all set to miss out. Lucas Biglia is also unlikely to play as he comes back from a knee problem.

Juventus will be delighted to have scored a late equaliser in the first leg of this semi-final and that puts them in control of the tie. AC Milan will need to score at least once to have any chance of progressing but expect to see Juventus win the game and reach the final.
