GdS: Milan's road to the derby and hopes regarding Inter's fixture congestion
"AC Milan, despite dropping points at San Siro, will still have a slight hope of the Scudetto, despite the seven-point gap being solidified. The draw against Como hurts. Whilst the Scudetto has never been the end goal for this season, it has been there, and Milan have probably allowed themselves to dream a little. Even if Massimiliano Allegri has tried to lower the hopes, he has led the side excellently."
"It is an unfortunate reality, but the Diavolo have not helped themselves at times. Indeed, the draws against lower-ranked sides have hurt them a lot this season. Nevertheless, they have often redeemed themselves with the wins against the European chasing outfits, which, if nothing else, have solidified their hopes of the Champions League next season."
"This weekend, it's Parma for the Rossoneri, whilst Inter travel back from Norway to face Lecce at the Via del Mare. In midweek, they then host Bodo Glimt, where they must overturn a two goal defecit to stay in the Champions League. Following that, Chivu's team will face Genoa and then Como in the Coppa Italia before the big day,"
AC Milan remain marginally in contention for the Scudetto despite a seven-point deficit after drawing with Como at San Siro. The draw against Como damaged Milan's title prospects but the Scudetto was never the explicit season target. Massimiliano Allegri has attempted to temper expectations while managing the team effectively. Milan's dropped points against lower-ranked opponents have hindered their campaign. The team has offset some shortcomings with victories over rivals pursuing European places, strengthening hopes of Champions League qualification. Inter's lead now stands at seven points, increasing the significance of the Derby della Madonnina. Milan must win remaining matches to keep title hopes alive.
