AC Milan are getting ready to play Juventus on Matchday 2 of the Women's Serie A 2024/25 Championship Round. The match will be played on Sunday 9 March at 18:00 CET at PUMA House of Football. Bakker's girls are looking for redemption against Juventus at an important point of the season. Let's get ready for the game with our Match Preview.

LATEST FROM THE PUMA HOUSE OF FOOTBALL AC Milan are going into the match after a goalless draw against Fiorentina. At Viola Park, the Rossonere were strong defensively, also thanks to the keeper's saves, including a penalty stop after the break. The girls need to refind the route to goal to win, and we must finish off those top chances against any team, depsite the fact that the opponents are often very strong. Bakker's team are determined to try and improve and to pick themselves up at this stage of the season. Two important factors: Chanté Dompig recently signed a new contract and the captain Grimshaw returned to training.

Coach Bakker spoke on the eve of the game: "As a unit, we will show through hard work, fight, discipline and of course passion that we can be competitive with Juventus, a team with experience. It will be another good test for us to see if together we can get the most out of this match".

LATEST FROM JUVENTUS Juventus left with all three points in an emotional victory against Roma (4-3), a result which could have slightly opened up the top of the table but instead the Bianconere extended their lead and they are now ten points clear. Canzi's side have shown their character and offensive prowess, qualifying a few days ago for the Coppa Italia Final, eliminating Fiorentina and keeping their formidable form going. They're a strong side, ready to give there all to take all three points.
