Juventus: 5 players who must shine in Coppa Italia vs. Milan

Juventus needs these five players to be at their best on Friday night.

After drawing 1-1 with Milan in the first leg, Juventus must win the second leg at their own stadium in order to advance to the Coppa Italia final.

Juve will surely like their chances at picking up a victory, even though they could be without two starting-quality midfielders in Miralem Pjanic and Aaron Ramsey.

Here are five players who will need to shine for the Old Lady in order for Maurizio Sarri’s side to keep their dreams of a double (or rare treble!) alive.

Juventus LW Cristiano Ronaldo

The legendary Cristiano Ronaldo will likely line up as the left winger with Paulo Dybala starting in the middle of the Juve attack. While Dybala and the other attacking players will also be important to victory, nobody will be tasked with doing more on Friday night than the former Real Madrid man.

Ronaldo will likely have to make a goal contribution in order for Juve to pick up the victory at the Allianz Stadium, and he may have to come through in the clutch. His instincts and movement off the ball, as well as his lethal finishing in the air, will be among the biggest individual keys to victory for the Bianconeri.
