AC Milan's defence leading the line in Serie A: xG against, shots against and more
"Massimiliano Allegri's men have conceded just three goals this season, two of which came in the opener against Cremonese and one against Napoli. Roma have done one better with two goals conceded, but in terms of defensive stats, the Rossoneri lead the line. As highlighted by Sky Italia, Milan have made sure not to give their opponents many chances to find the back of the net. Even in exposed situations, such as the opponent winning back the ball in the attacking half, the Rossoneri have been able to keep them at bay."

AC Milan have conceded just three goals so far this season, with two conceded in the opener against Cremonese and one against Napoli. Milan lead defensive metrics despite Roma conceding two goals. Milan limit opponents' chances and restrict dangerous situations, even when opponents recover possession in the attacking half. Milan rank first in average xG allowed, xG of shots against, xG of counter-attacks against, goals conceded from high interceptions and average goals conceded from high interceptions. Strong defensive performance increases the Rossoneri's prospects of competing for the Scudetto if maintained.
