Le rossonere arrivano a questa sfida dopo la convincente vittoria con la Lazio per 4-2, che ha mostrato la capacità delle rossonere di segnare e finalmente di gestire la partita, elemento evolutivo fondamentale viste le precedenti sconfitte maturate nel finale contro la Fiorentina e la Roma. Il Milan ha dimostrato di avere un attacco prolifico, ma dovrà mantenere la concentrazione per tutta la durata del match per ottenere un risultato positivo contro la Juventus. La squadra fa la conta in infermeria e non saranno della partita Soffia, Babb, Sorelli, Stokić e Zanini. Mentre chi sta scendendo in campo con grande spirito è Monica Renzotti, che insieme ai gol di Van Dooren, ha dato spettacolo nell'ultima giornata di campionato.

Coach Bakker on the eve of the game: "After the victory against Lazio, we want to keep going on this path, grow game after game, and show that our work is bringing results. We will face Juventus, the reigning champions, a team of great quality and experience, but we have worked hard to prepare for this challenge. I want to see courage, intensity, and personality in every play. The support of our fans will be fundamental: their energy gives us strength in difficult moments and pushes us to always give something more".

Renzotti: "Juve a real test to show our strength"

LATEST FROM JUVENTUS
Juventus arrives at this encounter following a 2-1 victory over Ternana Women, which has boosted the team's confidence. Previously, the Bianconere secured a 1-0 win against Lazio, demonstrating defensive solidity. However, the 2-1 defeat in the Champions League against Bayern München highlighted some challenges the team needs to overcome. Juventus is determined to continue their positive streak in the league and further improve their position in the standings, the contract extension of key player, Barbara Bonansea, until 2027 will undoubtedly boost confidence in the Juventus Women’s team.

Max Canzi's word: "The women are doing well, having recovered from last Sunday's match. We won't be at full strength, but we'll be strong enough to be in top form to face Milan. The Rossonere are definitely a team with great individual talent and with very clear characteristics, playing directly and consistently looking for depth. They're an organized team and, I dare say, very well-coached. It will be a tough match because we'll be facing a team that has performed very well all year".

• AC Milan has scored more than two goals in nine Serie A matches since the beginning of 2025, including the two most recent ones against Lazio (four) and Fiorentina (three), a record in the period in the tournament.
