Another challenge, another step forward for AC Milan tonight. Milan is in front of everyone and we are halfway through the league's calendar. For the Rossoneri, one point is enough to close the first round as winter champions.
"One point for the Scudettino ( small Scudetto) in winter. It would be a small but significant satisfaction", writes Corriere della Sera. This has not happened to Milan in ten years and back then, Milan won the league. Stefano Pioli believes in it, as do the team, the club and the fans. The goal remains the return to the Champions League, but the truth is that management and owners want to try. The mercato done by the management proves it.
The Rossoneri, in fact, will have to contend with Gasperini's fearsome Atalanta, a team always difficult to face and unbeaten at San Siro since 2014. The 5-0 in December 2019 is now a distant and unpleasant memory, but the desire to avenge that humiliation has not faded.
