**Ahead of the game between AC Milan and Juventus, Davide Bartesaghi spoke to the media and shared his thoughts on the task at hand.**
After the win against Hellas Verona, Milan restored some much-needed confidence ahead of what can only be described as a Champions League clash. Juventus are just three points behind, and since this game will decide the H2H too, they could leapfrog the Rossoneri.
Speaking to DAZN just a few minutes ago, as transcribed by [MilanNews](https://www.milannews.it/news/bartesaghi-a-dazn-ci-siamo-preparati-bene-in-palio-tre-punti-importanti-per-la-champions-615269), Bartesaghi shared his thoughts on the game. He highlighted just how important it will be for them to succeed in the Champions League encounter.
**On their status…**
“It was a good week after an important victory in Verona. We prepared well, three important points for the Champions League are up for grabs.”
**On his current form…**
“There’s always great desire. We are at the decisive moment of the season. We absolutely must stay on top of things.”
**On what it’s like to play against Juventus…**
“Milan-Juventus at San Siro always has an impact on you.”
Bartesaghi was initially named as a bench player for the game, with Pervis Estupinan included in the XI, but the youngster’s condition improved massively today. As such, Massimiliano Allegri [**decided to go with him**](https://sempremilan.com/official-ac-milan-juventus-starting-xis-2025-26) instead of the Ecuadorian.
