The Serie A is about to enter the 34 matchday of an exciting season nearing its end. Even though Inter managed to crown themselves early, having a 17-point lead over the 2nd spot with five matches left, there is still a fight going to prove who is the second-best out there.
In this context, Juventus and Milan face in a duel of wounded giants with plenty at stake, as the positioning toward the next Champions League could change.

Why Bet on Juventus?
This match will be hosted by the 3rd placed Juventus, who is looking to use the remaining time they have in the season to retake the 2nd spot. However, they will need to kick into gear as they are five points behind and only have a few shots left to do so.Â
Losing or drawing this game would practically leave them out of the contest, putting them at great risk of being overtaken by Bologna, who plays a poor Udinese this matchday.
Overall, this has been a season of mixed fortunes for Juventus. This first half of their campaign was excellent, and the second one has been a disaster in the league. However, the team managed to advance to the final of the Coppa Italia, while keeping third place in Serie A.Â
UEFA’s new coefficient rules almost guarantee they will have Champions League action next season, as up to six Italian teams will feature. Notwithstanding, there is no doubt that significant changes are looming within the club. Primarily, this concerns the head coach, as rumors of Massimiliano Allegri’s possible departure have been circulating for a while.
Why Bet on Milan?
Milan will be visiting in this clash, but the 2nd placed team had a five-match win streak not too long ago before underperforming in what resulted in a 3 – 3 draw with Sassuolo, followed by a 2-1 loss at the hands of the leaders. In between was their elimination from the Europa League at the hands of Roma, so April has been a bad month for the club overall.
We have to say that the Rossoneri find themselves in a similar situation as their current opponents. Although the team occupies the second position, Stefano Pioli’s team performance has been underwhelming, to say the least, so the Italian will depart at the end of the season.
During their last match, they lost to Inter in the derby, allowing their rivals to clinch the 20th title prematurely, while also maintaining their recent bad streak.
We must add that the last match got on the nerves of various players, so a couple of red cards were shown to Theo Hernández and Davide Calabria. Fikayo Tomori is also suspended due to yellow card accumulation, so which defense will be featured by Pioli’s team is a total mystery.
Final Betting Analysis:Â Juventus vs. Milan
In the last six Serie A games between Juventus and Milan, only once have both sides scored. Another tight contest is on the cards for Saturday, but as the visitors must field a makeshift defense, their hosts could capitalize and close the gap to second place.
However, Juventus has managed to lose points in the most implausible scenarios recently, failing to capitalize on their rivals’ deficiencies a lot. In the end, we believe a 2-2 tie will be the final result.
Go for a tie. If you bet $100 at 3.415, you will win $242.5 for a total payout of $342.5.
