Stadio Olimpico di Torino: Home of Juventus(credit:

AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri is wary of his side facing a “wounded” Juventus outfit this evening.
Juventus have lost four of their last six games in Serie A to slip to seventh in the table, seven points behind Lazio who occupy the final Champions League spot.
But Allegri insists his side, who currently top the table by five points from reigning champions Inter Milan, cannot afford to overlook their hosts at the Stadio Olimpico di Torino.
He said: “With 11 games to go, each match is important. It is key for the scudetto for us and key for the Champions League for them.
“Juve is a physical team, with character. It is wounded and will play an important game, but we can match that.
“We cannot have a drop in concentration or underestimate Juve.
“They played well against Inter Milan and they were unfortunate against Bologna. They will go out to win.”
While AC Milan head into this game on the back of a comfortable 3-0 win over Napoli, Juventus slipped to a 2-0 defeat to Bologna last time out.
