Juventus vs. AC Milan live stream, where to watch: How Massimiliano Allegri returned Milan to top of the table

The 2025-26 Serie A season kicked off in Italy as Napoli started the campaign to defend the 2024-25 title, after winning their fourth Scudetto ever on the last matchday of the season. Inter, Juventus and AC Milan will compete with the team coached by Antonio Conte to win the Serie A title, while other teams such as AS Roma, Atalanta, Lazio, Fiorentina, Bologna and Como are all in contention for a spot in next season's European tournaments.

How Allegri turned things around

It took only seven matches to feel a different atmosphere around AC Milan, and it mainly happened thanks to the results and performances of the team, those results also wouldn't have come without the work of manager Massimiliano Allegri who made his comeback at the club after coaching the Rossoneri from 2010 to 2014. AC Milan are currently leading the Serie A standings, tied with Napoli and AS Roma with 12 points, and last week they also won a key Serie A game against the team coached by Antonio Conte, thanks to another great performance from United States men's national team star Christian Pulisic. The American striker has been phenomenal so far this season, playing in a different tactical position as striker alongside Santiago Gimenez and already scored six goals in the opening seven games between Serie A and Coppa Italia.

Allegri brought the winning mentality but also his usual optimism that helped the players to regain their self-confidence needed in such important games, something that they had lost over the last season. If the Rossoneri wanted to restore their winning mentality, they are doing it under the Italian coach who will also make his emotional comeback at the Allianz Stadium on Sunday in Turin, after coaching Juventus from 2014 to 2019 and then again from 2021 to 2024 when he was sacked they day after the team won their last trophy, the 2023-24 Coppa Italia. Despite the bittersweet end of their relationship, Allegri is expected to be received warmly by his former fans on Sunday as he has won five Serie A titles, two Supercoppa Italia and five Coppa Italia trophies in his years at the club.
