Juventus host AC Milan in Serie A on Sunday in what will be a crucial clash in the race for the top four.
Both teams are currently tied on 69 points alongside Atalanta. The Bianconeri, however, are ahead of the Rossoneri in third place due to goal difference. Both sides have a great chance of finishing the weekend in second place and improving their chances of a top-four finish.
Andrea Pirlo's side have only lost two of their last 14 games across all competitions and have been in strong form of late. Juventus came from behind to beat Udinese last time out courtesy of a late brace from Cristiano Ronaldo.

Stefano Pioli's Milan side, on the other hand, snapped their two-game losing streak with a 2-0 win against Benevento last weekend. They will be hoping that they can build upon that victory when they come up against Juventus on Sunday.
