AC Milan and Juventus will renew their rivalry this evening at the Allianz Stadium, with both teams battling to secure second spot.

Juventus are the team that Milan have played the most times in their 124-year history, with 224 official matches between the sides which have yielded 65 wins, 71 draws and 88 defeats at a win rate of 31.8%.

Our pre-match preview has the latest team news and some opposition insight, while below are the key stated ahead of the game.

➤ Following their 1-0 victory in the reverse fixture in October, Juventus could win both seasonal matches against Milan in Serie A for the first time since 2018-19 (under Massimiliano Allegri).

➤ Across the last six games between Juventus and Milan in Serie A only once have both sides scored: 1-1 on September 2021 – four clean sheets for Rossoneri and one for Bianconeri in the other five games.

➤ After nine away defeats in a row against Juventus in Serie A, Milan have gone unbeaten in the last three at the Allianz Stadium (W2 D1); only once have the Rossoneri avoided defeat in four consecutive away games against the Bianconeri in the competition: between May 1991 and March 1994.

➤ Juventus have drawn six of their 15 Serie A games in 2024 (W5 L4), during this period only Torino and Genoa (both 7) have drawn more games in the competition. The Bianconeri could draw three games in a row for the first time since September-October 2020.

➤ Milan have lost three of their last four matches in all competitions (D1), including the last two – the Rossoneri could record three defeats in a row in all competitions for the first time this season, previously doing so in May 2023 (two against Inter in that case in the Champions League and one against Spezia in Serie A).

➤ Milan rank second for points gained in away games in Serie A this season (34 in 17 matches, less than Inter), despite only Frosinone (37), Salernitana (36) and Sassuolo (33) conceding more goals than Milan (29) on the road this term.
