Ambitious AC Milan aiming to stun Serie A leaders Juventus

AC Milan, 10/1 with Coral to steal Juventus’ scalp, are not used to being considered underdogs, but the Milanese men are being tipped as just that ahead of their upcoming clash with historical rivals the Old Lady.

Filippo Inzaghi takes his team on a trip to Turin knowing that Milan have failed to defeat Juventus in five of their last six attempts, and have not taken the spoils on their hosts’ turf since 2011.

The Rossoneri certainly possess the quality to spring a surprise on the Serie A leaders, though, despite residing in 13th place in the league, 21 points behind Juve.

Recent loan recruit Mattia Destro is suspended for this encounter, but Inzaghi still has top options to threaten the Old Lady in attack.

Crafty playmaker Keisuke Honda, fresh from firing home three times for Japan at the Asian Cup, is 7/2 to score anytime, whilst Atletico Madrid-owned wideman Alessio Cerci is also available at the same price in that market.

Leading marksman Jeremy Menez bagged a brace last time out against Parma, and is expected to lead the Rossoneri’s resurgence again in Piedmont, where he is 8/1 to draw first blood against Juventus.

Inzaghi’s offence will certainly find themselves tested as they try to breach the Old Lady’s backline, which has been somewhat of a brick wall this campaign.

Massimiliano Allegri’s men are yet to lose in front of their home faithful in the league, and have conceded just nine times in Serie A so far this season.

After keeping four consecutive clean sheets across all competitions, jubilant Juve, who are odds-on at 1/3 to triumph, are also odds-on at 19/20 to win to nil.
