The Italian Sucercup between Juventus and Milan will be held not in Turin or Rome, but in Doha. The organizers have made the decision to popularize Serie A on the East, especially in the Arabic world, and also to draw some new investors. Bookmakers quite rightfully consider Juvenus obvious favorites in the upcoming game, as Allegri’s team has been showing some great level of football recently, and managed to get several important wins in Serie A, while Milan is somewhat mediocre in terms of gaining points and results.
Juventus won four previous matches. The victories happened over Atalanta, Torino and Roma in Serie A, and also over Dinamo Zagreb in Champions League. As a result, Juve have secured the first place in their UCL group, and Allegri’s men lead the Italian championship with seven-point handicap from the closest chaser.
Meanwhile Milan has fallen from the second place in the Serie A tournament table to the fifth. Montella’s team is eleven points behind Juve now, and frankly, it is hard to believe, that Rossoneri will manage to be serious competitors to the Zebras in the battle for Scudetto. However, the Devils can give battle, as it happened not that long ago.
Milan have already beaten Juventus recently, and the story may repeat, but another scenario is more likely, where the stronger, current champion will take revenge for the defeat, which recently happened in the World’s fashion capital. And the rematch probably wouldn’t be minimal.
Prediction for the match: Juventus to win.
