The Story So Far
AC Milan head coach Massimiliano Allegri has called on his side to avoid a ‘disaster’ in the Serie A title race, but insists that the form of his strikers is not an issue. The Rossoneri are currently third in the table, four points behind leaders Inter Milan, and face a tough run-in to the end of the season. Allegri’s comments come after a 2-1 win over Como in midweek, which kept Milan’s hopes of a top-three finish alive.
Chelsea’s Influence on Milan’s Title Chances
Chelsea‘s involvement in the Champions League quarter-finals has been cited as a potential obstacle for Milan’s title aspirations. The Blues have a rich history of poaching top talent from Serie A clubs, and it’s understood that they may be eyeing Milan’s star players in the summer. However, Allegri remains focused on the present, and is confident that his team can overcome any challenges that lie ahead.
Key Numbers Behind the Result
- AC Milan are currently third in the Serie A table, four points behind leaders Inter Milan.
- The Rossoneri have won five of their last six league games, scoring 13 goals in the process.
- Inter Milan have won 12 of their last 13 league games, with their only defeat coming against Juventus in February.
- AC Milan’s top scorer this season is Zlatan Ibrahimović, who has netted 15 goals in 22 appearances.
- The Rossoneri’s midfield duo of Sandro Tonali and Ismaël Bennacer have created 12 chances for their teammates in their last three league games.
Allegri’s side have been in impressive form of late, with a string of victories propelling them up the table. However, the head coach knows that there is still a long way to go, and that his team must avoid any setbacks in the run-in to the end of the season. “We need to avoid a disaster,” Allegri said. “We have to focus on our own games and not worry about what others are doing.”
