Ruben Amorim seeks historic start with AC Milan against Juventus
Summary

AC Milan head coach Ruben Amorim has the chance to set a club record when his side faces Juventus this Sunday. Following a pair of season-opening victories, including a 2-1 win over Torino and a 2-0 result against Venezia, Amorim enters the match with six points from his first two fixtures. A win in Turin would make him the first AC Milan manager since 1958 to record victories in each of his first three league matches. This potential milestone surpasses the starts of notable predecessors such as Arrigo Sacchi, Fabio Capello, and Carlo Ancelotti. While Capello won his first two games in 1991, his third match against Juventus resulted in a draw. Only Mario Sperone, Gipo Viani, and Cina Bonizzoni have previously achieved three consecutive wins to open their tenure with the club.
