Maurizio Sarri believes Juventus playing for Serie A, Coppa Italia and the Champions League at separate intervals ‘can be an advantage for us’.

Juve restart their season on Friday against Milan in the second leg of their Coppa Italia semi-final, ahead of their first Serie A game the following weekend and the Champions League’s resumption in August.

“I think we’re lucky to play for three objectives separately from each other,” Sarri told Sky Sport Italia.

Juve restart their season on Friday against Milan in the second leg of their Coppa Italia semi-final, ahead of their first Serie A game the following weekend and the Champions League’s resumption in August.

“I think we’re lucky to play for three objectives separately from each other,” Sarri told Sky Sport Italia.

“We can focus our motivations on one objective at a time. This can be an advantage for us.

“All our matches against Milan all been difficult this season. They’re a team who make things difficult for us and the result of the first leg doesn’t guarantee us anything.

“The suspensions make me think that they’ll play with the same, competitive XI like in the first leg.

“The outcome of the tie is still wide open.”

The first leg ended 1-1, although the Bianconeri scored an away goal at San Siro.
