AC Milan vs Juventus Match Preview: Serie A Clash

Match Context

AC Milan host Juventus at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in Milan on 26 April 2026, in Serie A Regular Season - 34. AC Milan arrive sitting 3rd on 66 points, with a goal difference of 21, while Juventus are 4th on 63 points and a goal difference of 28, both firmly in the race for Champions League qualification.

AC Milan & Juventus Availability

AC Milan report no absentees in the official lists, so Stefano Pioli should have a full squad available. Key attacking figures Rafael Leão (9 league goals, 3 assists) and Christian Pulišić (8 goals, 3 assists) are both available to start.

Juventus, by contrast, travel with several concerns. J. Cabal (Muscle Injury) is sidelined. A. Milik (Muscle Injury) is sidelined. E. Holm (Calf Injury) is doubtful. M. Perin (Injury) is doubtful. D. Vlahović (Calf Injury) is doubtful. These issues mainly affect defensive depth, wide options and the centre-forward rotation behind first-choice attackers.

Impact Summary

AC Milan’s attacking structure is intact, with Leão and Pulišić combining for 17 league goals and 6 assists, ensuring their primary offensive output is preserved. Juventus’ main creative and scoring hub K. Yıldız (10 goals, 6 assists) is available, as are key support options like W. McKennie (5 goals, 5 assists) and J. David (6 goals, 4 assists). However, the potential absence of D. Vlahović would reduce their ability to vary the attacking profile in the penalty area and could limit Massimiliano Allegri’s in-game tactical flexibility.
