AC Milan’s awful stats against Napoli
Tomorrow at 20:30 CET, AC Milan make their Serie A debut against Ancelotti’s Napoli. One of the most difficult squads that the Rossoneri have faced in recent seasons.
There couldn’t have been a more difficult start for the AC Milan of the new American era. The Devils of coach Gennaro Gattuso make their Serie A debut in Naples, after the postponed match with Genoa. The Rossoneri at the San Paolo stadium have not won since 2010 but there’s more.
According to statistics revealed by SportMediaset, the Milanese team has collected only 14 points out of the 48 available in the last 8 years of home and away encounters with Napoli. A negative tendency that Rino’s squad will try to break this season.
The Rossoneri must keep a close eye on Lorenzo Insigne, the opponent’s most dangerous player. The 27 year old flamboyant left winger has netted 6 times against the Red and Blacks, his preferred victim.
However AC Milan can count on new arrival Gonzalo Higuain who has scored 5 goals in the last 6 games against his former team Napoli. The Argentine centre forward will lead the Rossoneri’s attacking unit alongside Suso and Giacomo Bonaventura.
