“Milan-Juventus is a big game in a legendary stadium. Playing it is wonderful and it’d be even better to win,” the Argentine told La Gazzetta dello Sport.
“Milan are a real united team and so far this season they are all rowing in the same direction. I am curious to see how they react under pressure, because it is up to them to show what they’re made of, whereas we are at the top for three years. I expect an entertaining match and if we win it will be a strong signal.
“I do not agree with those who say the Scudetto race is a head-to-head between Juve and Roma, as the Milanese clubs also seem strong to me and ready for the challenge.
“Stephan El Shaarawy is one of my favourite players, as he has exceptional natural qualities and can become a leader.”
This is a new beginning for Juventus too, as Antonio Conte left two days into pre-season training to make way for ex-Milan Coach Max Allegri.
“I could already sense in May that Conte was going to leave,” confessed Tevez.
“Allegri is more relaxed and he knows a lot about football. He has already earned everyone’s respect.”
The Bianconeri began their Champions League campaign with a 2-0 victory over Malmo thanks to Tevez’s brace.
“The Champions League mustn’t be an obsession. We should take it one game at a time.”
