The Rossoneri currently top the Serie A table and are coming off a big 3-0 win over Napoli on Monday, while the Bianconeri succumbed to a disappointing defeat to Bologna and are barely keeping their heads above water in the fight for the final Champions League spot.
However, the 33-year-old believes that the Old Lady will make life difficult for the league leaders on Saturday evening in Turin.
“It’s always exciting to face Juventus. It’s such a great game to play in and it will be even more emotional for me as I am close friends with [Hasan] Salihamidzic,” the Dutchman said to Sky Sport Italia.
“It will be a complicated match as Juve are going through a difficult moment right now. They have lost many games but these types of matches are tough as they believe they can win. It will not be easy as we must face them in Turin,” he concluded.
Milan are five points clear of city rivals Inter in the race for the Scudetto.
