"This season, AC Milan have been in the Scudetto fight, but they have often been their own downfall, rather than anyone else damaging them. It has been a while since Milan last lost, yet, despite that feeling, they are not sitting at the top of the table, as many would expect. Indeed, despite losing the first game of the season, the Rossoneri have remained without a loss since then, at least in Serie A."
"Many would imagine that this would bring a first-place spot, but it has not, simply because Massimiliano Allegri's side have let results slip. After last night's draw against Como, the gap is now seven points, and whilst Inter are not uncatchable, they are further away than many would have hoped they would be at this stage. Longoni picks out Milan's faults"
AC Milan have stayed unbeaten in Serie A since the opening loss but frequent draws have prevented consistent point accumulation. The team has drawn nine league matches, more than any other title contender across top European leagues, resulting in dropped points that outweigh the value of an unbeaten run. A draw with Como increased the gap to Inter to seven points, making first place more distant despite Inter not being uncatchable. The squad has struggled to string together winning streaks, with injuries such as Rafael Leao's fitness offering occasional explanations. Champions League stability becomes a priority while internal shortcomings remain the primary cause.
