"We need to be ready to play a solid game. Tomorrow we'll face a team... There are some numbers we'll try to reverse. In the last 12 years, six draws, five defeats, and just one win. In the last three years, Milan has lost three times. We need to approach them with great humility. Torino are a very physical team; playing at their home ground right now is very difficult; they're coming off a string of negative results. We need to play a very solid game. We've reached a point in the season where, between now and the end of January, the table will be decided."
"We hope to have Gimenez back as soon as possible. He's an important player, and we need him in terms of numbers. Both technically and numerically. Pulisic had a fever last night, so we'll see if he'll be available or not. Athekame is completing his recovery. We hope to have Fofana back against Sassuolo. Between tomorrow and Sassuolo, we have a very important week ahead of us."
Milan enter Monday's match at Torino after a recent cup exit to Lazio and a rare defeat, but retain a 12-game unbeaten run in Serie A and the chance to stay top. The club have a poor recent away record at Torino, with one win, six draws and five defeats across the last 12 years and three losses in the past three seasons. Torino are physically strong at home and under pressure from negative results. Injury concerns include Pulisic doubtful after a fever, Gimenez and Fofana hoped to return soon, and Athekame completing recovery. January fixtures will be decisive for the table.
