Simone Sozza has been confirmed as the referee for AC Milan’s match against Genoa. Milan are seeking favorable officiating due to recent poor form and the need to avoid refereeing mistakes. Sozza has a reputation built partly on officiating the Derby della Madonnina three times, where he performed well. He has refereed nine Milan matches so far, producing five wins, one draw, and three defeats. The latest Milan match he officiated was a 0-0 draw against Juventus in late April, with no notable issues. Paolo Mazzoleni will oversee VAR for the game.
"Simone Sozza has been named the referee for AC Milan's game against Genoa tomorrow, and he has been pretty good with the Rossoneri. Given the recent run of form, which has been nothing short of terrible, Milan need as much as possible to go their way. In short, they cannot afford any refereeing mistakes tomorrow, and it's thus very important that the referee can withstand any potential pressure from the Genoa fans."
"Tomorrow's referee as confirmed by AIA, Simone Sozza, is somewhere in between. He has established a pretty good reputation thanks to the Derby della Madonnina fixture, which he has officiated three times, doing a good job in all of them. So far, the 38-year-old has officiated nine games involving the Rossoneri: five wins, one draw, and three defeats."
"The most recent Milan game was the boring 0-0 draw against Juventus at the end of April, with nothing to note from the referee's side. All things considered, Sozza is a good choice for a game that is expected to be a tough one for both sides. Paolo Mazzoleni will be in charge of VAR, just in case you were wondering."
