Serie A 2025-2026: Milan-Juventus, the likely lineups

The 8:45 p.m. kickoff for Milan-Juventus, the big match of the 34th day of Serie A. The Rossoneri regained victory in Verona after two knockouts in a row against Napoli and Udinese: Allegri’s team wants the three points at home to almost definitively secure qualification for the next Champions League. Spalletti’s men come from three wins in a row with Genoa, Atalanta and Bologna and want to make poker to hook the Rossoneri in third place and move away from the pursuers Roma and Como.

Allegri could change on the flanks: Saelemaekers will take Athekame’s place, while Estupinan could start from the 1′ beating Bartesaghi in the ballot. Confirmed is the Pulisic-Leao attacking pair, in the median there is Modric in the director’s chair with Fofana and Rabiot on his flanks.

Spalletti is grappling with several players who are not 100 percent fit. Yildiz is recovered and should start from the first minute with Conceiçao and David in attack: if he cannot make it, Boga is ready to take his place. In the midfield to be evaluated is the condition of Thuram, who could start from the bench with McKennie and Locatelli in the midfield and Holm and Cambiaso on the flanks. Kalulu, Bremer and Kelly form the defensive trio.
