AC Milan have endured a miserable campaign but did earn themselves a much needed victory last weekend as the Rossoneri will lock horns against Como on Saturday evening. Paulo Fonseca was sacked due to poor results and now Sergio Conceicao is under immense pressure as he can also suffer the same fate. After they won the Supercoppa Italiana, things have gone very badly for them as they were also knocked out of the Champions League and find themselves at the 9th spot in the Serie A.
In 28 games, they have won 12 matches, eight draws and lost eight games. They surely have gained some confidence after beating Leece in a thrilling 3-2 win and now they will have to be at their best to face Fabregas’s men.
Como started their new season in the top division very poorly. They were in the relegation zone. But as the season progressed, they have improved a lot.
Despite being the away team in the upcoming fixture, they will be confident of getting a result against Milan. They can take advantage of their poor form and can beat Mian for the first time. Como have brought in a lot of quality players in their team and surely they are capable of making a difference on the pitch. This will be a mouthwatering clash for sure.
