Milan and Juventus may only try to improve their standings as well as chasing the top 4 and for the championship title fight can only be continued by Inter Milan with Napoli who are currently at the top of the standings and in second place, I think Juventus and Milan are experiencing stagnant condition with no significant improvement now.
There are still many match, don't be too pessimistic because surprising things can happen if it only to occupy the top 4 later.
Yes, if you look realistically, Juventus and Milan this season will probably only struggle to finish in the top 4. Because if you are chasing the Scudetto, it is clear that this season it will no longer be possible for Juventus or Milan to achieve it. Because currently Juventus and Milan are quite far behind the teams at the top in Serie A. So the only realistic goal that Milan and Juventus can pursue is a top 4 position. Maybe even reaching the top 4 positions, I think it will be a little difficult for these two teams. Because in Serie A the competition is really very tight at the moment. Because currently Milan and Juventus continue to be stuck in their current position. For this reason, Juventus and Milan's struggle this season will not be easy even though they are only targeting the top 4 positions in Serie A.

Because we can see for ourselves, Juventus and Milan have had unsatisfactory match results in their last five matches in Serie A. Because Juventus was only able to get 1 win from its last 5 matches and Milan was only able to win 2 matches. This is enough to prove that Juventus and Milan really do not have good performance developments. And I think maybe the poor performance of these two teams will continue until this season is over. Because even until the middle of the season, these two teams really didn't show any changes.
I honestly share the same sentiment as you bro, because I don't see ac Milan or Juventus going more than fourth position. if you look at the league standings, the gap between these two teams and the top is too big, and realistically speak it is only a place in the top four that is still very much achievable right now, because Atalanta and Lazio are not in the best of form right now and the point difference is not that wide, so if ac Milan or Juventus can be consistent in ranking up the winnings, a time will come when Atalanta or Lazio will drop point, and that will be the perfect opportunity to close the gap and even secure a place in the top four.
While as for the title race, it's out of their reach for now, just as you have rightfully said.
The only team among them that still has a chance of getting back into the title race is Atalanta, because right now it's just a seven points gap, which we all know that it's not that much especially when their is still a lot of games left to play, but no matter what, I believe that the race for the title and the race for a place in the top four is actually going to be fascinating among these team, between now and the end of the season.
That's right, friend, the only hope for Juventus or Milan to climb into the top 4 is to consistently win every match, while waiting for Atalanta and Lazio to lose. Because if, for example, Atalanta and Lazio can continue to consistently win in every match, it is certain that Juventus and Milan's hopes will be slimmer to get into the top 4 positions. But fortunately Atalanta and Lazio's performance is currently experiencing a decline. It has been proven that in recent matches Atalanta and Lazio have often failed to secure the full 3 points. So with this, Juventus and Milan should not waste this opportunity. Because if, for example, Atalanta or Lazio continue to get bad results in every match, it is certain that Juventus and Milan can move up to the top 4 more quickly. But even so, I personally feel that Atalanta and Lazio will not be in decline for long. Because they also realized that their squad was having problems. Therefore, it is certain that currently Atalanta and Lazio are definitely improving their teams. So if these two teams succeed in improving their teams, I think this will be bad news for Juventus and Milan. Therefore, Juventus and Milan are really very dependent on the results of the matches that will be played by Lazio and Atalanta.
