With yesterday’s Juventus win over Lecce, Milan has slipped down to fourth place in the standings. It feels strange, but also almost amusing, that just a few weeks ago the Rossoneri were actually in second place with a significant gap over fifth place, which has now narrowed to almost nothing.
For this reason, tonight’s match is worth more than just three points for Milan, who are called upon to deliver an important response not only in the race for Champions League qualification but also, and above all, to their supporters. Regarding the San Siro clash, La Repubblica this morning ran the headline:
"Allegri with Atalanta for the counter-overtake."
