"After doubts for months about when and even where the game would be played, AC Milan will finally host Como at San Siro tonight. As La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) write this morning, in other eras you might have thought it was a classic David versus Goliath showdown. In reality, Como are now chasing a European spot for the first time in their history."
"The absence of the French midfielder leaves Allegri feeling uneasy. In the middle, where Fabregas knows how to move the ball, Luka Modric will be without his trusted guide. Rabiot has played 17 league games, resulting in 12 wins without a single loss. With him in the side, the Rossoneri's average points per game in the league has risen from 2.21 to 2.41, a league-winning average."
AC Milan will host Como at San Siro tonight after months of doubt over when and where the game would be played. Como are chasing a European spot for the first time in their history. Milan has picked up the most points against top-ranked opponents, earning 25 points in 11 games while conceding six goals. A Milan win would move them within five points of league leaders Inter and keep the title race alive ahead of the Derby della Madonnina on March 8. The first leg ended 3-1 to Milan despite Como's statistical dominance. Adrien Rabiot's absence weakens Milan's midfield; with him Milan averages 2.41 points per game, without him 1.71.
