Juventus vs Milan Prediction 6 September 2026
📢 Were it not for the Inter vs Napoli fixture, the Juventus-Milan clash would arguably be the match of the week. Even so, the game at the Allianz Stadium is sure to attract a huge audience, particularly with both sides having made excellent starts in Serie A and sitting on six points after two rounds. In a fixture of this importance, neither side will want to give ground.
🔁 Our prediction for the Juventus vs Milan match is updated throughout the day. Follow the Latest News section for important updates.
Head-to-Head
📊 Over recent years, the two sides have met 52 times. Juventus hold a clear advantage: 28 wins to Milan's 11, with 13 draws. Notably, four of the last six head-to-head meetings ended 0-0, and both fixtures last season also finished goalless.
Head-to-head statistics Juventus - Milan
Juventus Turin Team Overview
⚫ Last season was an extremely difficult one for Juventus, particularly given that they missed out on Champions League qualification at the very last moment. At the start of the new league campaign, the Old Lady look noticeably better - two clean-sheet wins from two matches and a maximum six points. The victories were not especially convincing in terms of scorelines, though (a combined score of 3-0), which is why the Turin side sit fourth on goal difference. After just two rounds, however, there is little point reading too much into the table - there are still 36 matches to go, and a great deal can change.
⚪ In their previous meeting with Parma, which ended in a 2-0 win, Juventus were very impressive. They did have to work hard to break down the opposition's defence, with the opening goal not coming until the 62nd minute, but the Turin side were completely dominant throughout. What's more, the Old Lady allowed their opponents just four shots on goal, and Parma had no genuinely dangerous moments. That makes it a thoroughly comfortable victory.

Milan Team Overview
🔴 Milan have also made a strong start to the Serie A season under their new coaching staff, taking six points from six. It is worth noting, though, that the opposition was not particularly demanding: the Rossoneri first beat Torino 2-1 away from home - a Torino side who have been far from impressive so far - and then saw off newly promoted Venezia 2-0 at home. That is hardly Milan's concern, however: they were handed those opponents, took the points comfortably and moved on.
⚫ In terms of performance, Milan deserve credit too. They outplayed both Torino and Venezia, leaving their opponents with virtually no chance of a positive result. As with Juventus against Parma, the Rossoneri did struggle for a long time to break down Venezia's defence - the score remained 0-0 until the 69th minute - but sustained pressure eventually told. Gonçalo Ramos also marked the occasion with his first goal, and it turned out to be the winner.

Latest news
Juventus Turin
❌ Juventus head into the third round with several injury concerns. Weston McKennie remains doubtful with a muscle injury, Andrea Cambiaso is out for around one to two weeks, and Juan Cabal and Jeff Ekhator are both continuing their recovery from thigh injuries. Kenan Yıldız will be sidelined for a longer period with a foot fracture. Khéphren Thuram is also out for an extended spell and is not expected to return until around February.
🔁 Update - 6 September, 05:20 UTC:
- Spalletti has confirmed that McKennie, Cambiaso, Yıldız and Pape Matar Sarr will definitely miss the match against Milan. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Francisco Conceição, Nicolás González and Jérémy Boga are highly likely to start in attack for the Turin side, with Randal Kolo Muani leading the line.
🔁 Update - 6 September, 09:30 UTC:
- Nick Woltemade will be an option from the bench for Spalletti in the upcoming match. The Juventus head coach has said the forward, on loan from Newcastle, is ready to play against Milan but is unlikely to start. Scores24 sees the most probable scenario as the German striker coming on as a substitute for Kolo Muani after the 60th minute.
Milan
❌ For Milan, only Matteo Gabbia is a doubt due to a thigh injury.
Predicted Lineups
⚫️ Juventus predicted starting XI: Vicario - Çelik, Bremer, Lucumi, Kalulu - Douglas Luiz, Locatelli - Boga, González, Conceiçao - Kolo Muani.
🔴 Milan predicted starting XI: Maignan - Pavlović, De Winter, Gila - Bartesaghi, Modrić, Musah, Chukwueze - Saelemaekers, Rabiot - Ramos.
⚽️ Goals Prediction
In the Derby d'Italia, both sides tend to be as disciplined as possible - nobody wants to lose to their fiercest rival. Teams are particularly careful defensively and look to keep mistakes to a minimum. The head-to-head history backs this up: in the last 10 Serie A meetings between Juventus and Milan, no more than two goals were scored. This match looks unlikely to be any different, so Total Goals - Under 2.5 at 1.80* is worth considering.
🚩 Corners Prediction
Juventus earn corners particularly frequently in home matches. In 9 of their last 10 games at home, the Old Lady won at least five corners. It is also worth noting that across the two rounds played so far, the Turin side have earned 22 corners in total. Juventus Team Total Corners - Over 4.5 at 1.55* looks a very logical option on that basis.
🟨 Yellow Cards Prediction
Naturally, fixtures of this intensity rarely pass without plenty of emotion, strong challenges and arguments with the referee. In the last head-to-head meeting between Juventus and Milan, the referee showed five yellow cards. A bet on Total Yellow Cards - Over 3.5 is worth considering here.
🚀 Player Statistics Bet
Last summer, Juventus signed Randal Kolo Muani from PSG. During his first spell in the 2024/25 season, the Frenchman looked very impressive, registering 8 goals and 1 assist in 16 matches. He has 0 goals and 0 assists after two rounds so far this time, but the coaching staff clearly trust him - he has played the full 90 minutes in both matches. Perhaps a high-profile fixture against Milan is exactly where the Frenchman's goalscoring instincts will finally come to life. Randal Kolo Muani to Score is available at 2.95*.
😱 Risky Bet
As already noted, recent head-to-head meetings between Juventus and Milan have been extremely low-scoring. In four of the last six matches between these two sides, not a single goal was scored. Total Goals - Under 1.5 at 3.50* looks an interesting risky option given that trend.
🎯 Safe Bet
If you would rather not take too much risk, Total Goals - Under 3.5 at 1.27* is an option. Over the last 12 head-to-head meetings, the teams have never exceeded that threshold. Such caution has become a familiar feature of this rivalry, which makes this one of the more reliable options.
👀 If the Match Goes Against the Script
Despite all the statistics pointing towards a low-scoring game, the opposite scenario cannot be ruled out entirely. This is still only the start of the season, when teams do not yet feel the weight of every dropped point as acutely. An early goal could also change the nature of the match completely and push both sides into playing considerably more openly. If things unfold that way, Total Goals - Over 2.5 at 2.10* starts to look interesting.
*Odds are indicative and may vary across different bookmakers.
⭐️ Editorial Prediction
Bookmakers make Juventus favourites for this one. However, Milan are capable of making it a serious contest - in their last six head-to-head meetings, the Rossoneri have lost just once. Backing a result here is therefore a risky approach. The more straightforward option is Total Goals - Under 2.5, which has come in regularly in this fixture. We are also expecting a narrow Juventus win, 1-0.
