"Today, we're in a good position in the table, but it's not enough,"
"You don't even get to the Conference League with 50 points. The closer we get to the Champions League mark, the better we'll be doing in the standings. That's why these games before the derby are so important. We've had a good season so far. We started by trying to get back into the Champions League, and at the moment we're in the top four. That's the goal. We could have done better in the Coppa Italia, which is our big regret. We have to stay focused on our goal, aware that Inter, as we've known from the beginning, are a very strong team. Napoli are also strong, Juve are coming back up. It won't be easy to finish in the top four."
Milan sit second in Serie A with 50 points following a 3-0 win over Bologna, eight points behind leaders Inter. A win at Pisa would equal Milan's second-best points tally at this stage, after 53 in 1995-96; their best was 61 in 2003-04, seasons that ended with Scudetto titles. Opta's simulations give Milan an 11.4% chance of overtaking Inter, with Inter on 84.8%, Napoli 2.8%, Juventus 0.6% and Roma 0.4%. Allegri insists the club's main objective is returning to the Champions League and staying focused on a top-four finish.
