AC Milan vs Juventus Prediction and Betting Tips | October 8, 2022

Reigning champions AC Milan will lock horns against Juventus at the San Siro in an exciting Serie A clash on Saturday (October 8).

The Rossoneri returned to winning ways with a 3-1 win at Empoli, with all four goals coming in the final 17 minutes. They were unable to maintain that form in the UEFA Champions League, though, falling 3-0 at Chelsea in midweek. Milan's only league defeat this season came against league leaders Napoli last month.

Juventus, meanwhile, recovered from a 1-0 reverse against newly promoted Monza with a 3-0 win over Bologna on Sunday. The Bianconeri then beat Maccabi Haifa 3-1 in the UEFA Champions League in midweek.

Milan and Juventus are fifth and seventh respectively in the standings and need to win to keep pace with the league leaders.
