For the past five weeks, we’ve been seeing Juventus seemingly playing the bottom third of the Serie A table. One by one, be it a regulation battler or a team sitting in the mid-teens and not too worried about their status for next season, Juventus faced them as a busy but relatively soft domestic schedule has been the bread between the Champions League Round of 16 being the obvious meat in the middle of the sandwich.

Now, as we get closer and closer to being able to count the number of league games Juventus has left with just our two hands, there’s no relegation battlers this time around.

There is another night of Friday football to be had.

And it’s, oh, just a little Juventus-Milan rivalry action happening as well.

Juventus did something they hadn’t done in their previous 26 Serie A matches this season over the weekend against Udinese — finished with a draw. It was a pretty forgettable performance, to be honest, and anything close to that kind of effort probably won’t get the job done against a Milan side that is currently on the outside looking in when it comes to one of Serie A’s final European places.

You know Milan will want to come into Juventus Stadium and do what they failed to do when they rolled into Turin for the Coppa Italia.

That’s win.

And we know that another Juventus win will, at least temporarily, put even more distance in between Roma and Napoli as Max Allegri’s squad continue to steam right on toward winning a sixth straight Scudetto.
