AC Milan on the other hand have a chance to rewrite their campaign on a fresh piece of paper under new head coach Sérgio Conceição. The Portuguese tactician will be hopeful to turn things around for the Rossoneri and bring back the glory days. The Red and Blacks can turn things around massively in their favour with a good performance on Saturday.

Players to watch 

Khéphren Thuram (Juventus)

The French midfielder is Juventus’ most in-form player coming into this fixture. He is fresh off a brace in the last game where he secured a crucial point for his side. Thuram is a proper box-to-box midfielder and provides great flexibility and rigidity in both offence and defence.

He primarily operates as a central midfielder, but can also slot in as a defensive midfielder if required. The 23-year-old is known for his ability to win back possession in crucial positions.

Tijjani Reijnders (AC Milan)

AC Milan will look up to their main man Tijjani Reijnders to take them over the line in this semi-final clash. The Dutch midfielder sits right behind Alvaro Morata and shoulders the creative duties to perfection. He can open up backlines with his line-breaking passes coupled with his vision.

Reijnders has made five goal contributions for Milan this season, including two goals in the last two games. Moreover, his technical prowess combined with his versatility comes in as an added advantage for his side.
