Juventus take on the visitors AC Milan in the semifinal match of Italian Super Cup. The match will be played on Friday, January 3rd at King Saud University Stadium (Riyadh).
"Juventus" leave many questions now. "The Old Lady" produced results last season, and they have always been at the forefront of Italian football. But everything was so heated by that time in Turin that Allegri was fired immediately after the victorious cup final. As a result, the team successfully rolled to 3rd place in Serie A without a full-fledged coach - the best result in recent years. And in the summer, the actively renewed team was headed by Thiago Motta, who was lured from Bologna. His work raises many questions, but if in the Champions League and the cup everything is compensated by results, then in Calcio there is little joy from an unbeaten streak, if at the same time the lion's share of matches ended in draws. And with "Fiorentina" they finished only 2-2, increasing the gap from the quartet of leaders.

Milan showed, at the very least, ingratitude. They fired Pioli, who brought them back to the Champions League (and reached the semi-finals there) and even won the "Scudetto". Moreover, last season there was a very decent result, 2nd place - only the neighboring Inter, who are in excellent shape, scored more points. But they still wanted changes - well, they got them. Just not the kind they wanted. Under Paulo Fonseca, the "Rossoneri" can pull themselves together and pleasantly surprise by winning the Inter derby or beating Real in Madrid. But there are still more misfires, and painful ones at that. And this is especially felt in Serie A, where the grandee is behind a group of leaders. So it is not surprising that when the crisis-ridden "Roma" shared the points, playing 1-1, the coach was fired. And now Sergio Conceição will make his debut.
In both extreme matches between the historical rivals, the sides managed without goals at all, before that they beat each other 1-0. Still, the Old Lady has a higher chance of success. A bet on its victory with a handicap of "0" looks safe.
Prediction for the match: Juventus to win with 0.0 handicap.
