**Luciano Spalletti has restored some order at Juventus and now believes that they could leapfrog AC Milan in the standings, currently just three points behind.**
After Milan’s big defeat against Udinese last night (0-3), which kicked off at 18:00, Juventus faced Atalanta away from home in the late slot. One goal in the second half by Jeremie Boga was enough to seal the three points for the Bianconeri, who moved [**within three points of the Rossoneri**](https://sempremilan.com/gallery-shock-milan-allegri-papers-italy).
During his post-match presser, as transcribed by [MilanNews](https://www.milannews.it/news/juventus-spalletti-riprendere-il-milan-giusto-farci-un-pensierino-613693), the Juve gaffer Luciano Spalletti was asked about the top-four race and specifically if they can leapfrog. He seemed confident about the matter, stating that it’s only right to believe in it.
**Can Juve leapfrog Milan?**
“It’s only right to think about it. However, we have some very difficult matches ahead of us. For example, we have Bologna, who have certainly rediscovered their enthusiasm.
“We have to focus on playing our game. Unfortunately, Juve have dropped too many points this season, and we need to recover them in this final push,” he stated.
The two teams will face each other in a direct clash in just two weeks, which undoubtedly will decide a lot in the top-four race. You would imagine that the Bianconeri will be the favourites for that one, having remained unbeaten in the last six games (four wins too).
