Allegri says Milan cannot afford more than one loss in Scudetto race - Soccer News
"The season is still long, with 13 games to go. We have to do our job, starting with beating Parma, I'm disappointed not to be part of the game tomorrow. I won't comment or say anything else, so let's move on. These two games are very important for us, as are the derby and the others, until we reach our objective."
"Inter are on a very strong run, and with 13 games left, at an average of two points per game, they'd get 90. So, for us to get to 90, from 54, we need to get 36 points, meaning 12 wins and one defeat. If Inter were to fall off, and we fail to capitalise on their mistakes, that's our responsibility, but Inter are the clear favourites for the Scudetto."
"Allegri was sent to the stands during the second half of that match following a scuffle on the sideline, as he felt Como boss Cesc Fabregas had pulled Alexis Saelemaekers back near the touchline, preventing a Rossoneri counter-attack. Ignace van der Brempt also went unpunished for a challenge on Strahinja Pavlovic, and Allegri's red card means he is suspended for Sunday's meeting with Parma at San Siro."
AC Milan trail Inter by seven points with 13 Serie A games remaining after drawing 1-1 with Como. Manager Massimiliano Allegri was sent to the stands following a sideline scuffle and is suspended for the upcoming match with Parma. Allegri calculated that Milan must obtain 36 points from 13 games — effectively 12 wins and one defeat — to reach 90 points and match Inter's projected run. Milan remain unbeaten in their last 24 league matches, but statistical models give them a single-digit percentage chance of winning the Scudetto compared with Inter.
