Milan – Como

Milan have a good chance of winning the match against Como

Milan finally broke their winless streak. However, they did it in their own inimitable style. Already in the first minute, the Rossoneri scored a goal that was cancelled out by the VAR system. Como, not thinking long, scored themselves. Six minutes later, Krstovic put the ball into Sprotiello's net. Menyon, by the way, missed the match due to suspension. So did Pavlovic. "Devils" very quickly got back, but the second goal was cancelled because of offside. The game was accompanied by Conceição's attacks, but the next goal was still for Lecce. Krstovic's double seemed to have "sentenced" Sergio and deprived his team of any chance of victory. But Milan showed great willpower. Gallo's goal and Pulisic's double brought Milan three points and faith in the end of the crisis. Against the background of sensational victories over Napoli and Fiorentina, the latest results of Fabregas's wards are not pleasing. Como played very poorly against Verona. "The Biancoblu allowed their opponents to create a lot of chances in the first half, but they were the first to score. Ikone's goal in the 49th minute seemed to bring the Lakesmen three points, but the Winged Lions equalised in stoppage time. A fluke? Maybe. But Di Francesco's men were definitely in favour of a goal. Before that, Como played with Roma in a similar scenario. The match, however, ended not in a draw, but in a defeat for the Biancocelesti. Milan, it should be noted, still has an extremely large underachievement in the xG and xPTS metrics. Thus, the Devils should have scored 10.26 more goals according to xG, and 6.44 more points according to xPTS. The teams met relatively recently at the Giuseppe Sinigaglia. The January match ended with a willful victory for the Devils thanks to goals from Hernandez and Lean. It is worth noting that the Rossoneri were on a very tight schedule at the time: the club had just returned from Saudi Arabia, and matches against Juventus in the league and Girona in the Champions League were on the horizon. As cliché as it may sound, Milan have taken away the burden of playing for several tournaments. Conceição's wards got an important and perhaps decisive victory over Lecce. The team showed their character and should keep the winning momentum going for a while. Como will be unlucky to fall to a "loaded" Milan. Unless Milan make life difficult for themselves.
