"You are playing after Napoli and Inter... "The standings are what count now. We have earned 40 points, but we need to get almost as many to finish in the top four and stay close to the Scudetto contenders. "Tonight's a tough match. Como have very specific characteristics: excellent ball possession and few goals conceded. We will need a very precise technical performance."
"Can Leao exploit the space that Como leave opponents tonight? "It's not just Leao, you need runs from behind and from the second lines. You have to be very good at escaping that pressure when they attack you again." Fullkrug is already on the bench. Is he available? "The boy made himself available right away. He said he has always played with this pain [from the stubbed toe] before, so I brought him along. It shows that he's a player with character and cares deeply; he's very important to us.""
Milan sit on 40 points and need roughly the same again to secure a top-four finish and remain close to title contenders. Recent results yielded only two points from matches against Genoa and Fiorentina, increasing urgency for victories. Como pose a difficult opponent with strong ball possession and a low goals-conceded record, demanding a precise technical performance. Attacking success will require coordinated runs from behind and from second lines rather than reliance on a single player. Niclas Füllkrug travelled and is on the bench despite a stubbed toe, showing commitment and squad importance.
