Amorim chases historic record that has stood for 68 years

Portuguese manager Rubén Amorim faces a historic clash against Juventus on Sunday, with the chance to achieve a feat that has eluded AC Milan for 68 years.

Amorim has won his first two matches with AC Milan in Serie A, defeating Torino 2-1 away and then overcoming Venezia 2-0 at San Siro, securing a perfect record for the Rossoneri ahead of the anticipated clash against Juventus.

If the Portuguese coach leads AC Milan to victory over Juventus in Turin, he will become the first manager since 1958 to win his first three matches in Serie A with the club, joining a historic list of only three managers who have previously achieved this feat.

Mario Speroni previously achieved this record in 1952, Gipo Viani in 1956, and Luighi Bonizoni in 1958, while renowned coaches like Arrigo Sacchi, Fabio Capello, and Carlo Ancelotti failed to replicate the feat during their early days with AC Milan.

Amorim faces a tough challenge as his team takes on Juventus, who have also secured two victories in their first two matches. This makes the clash on Sunday a real test for AC Milan's perfect start and an opportunity for the Portuguese coach to etch his name in the club's history.
