Chievo vs Milan: The match in 5 numbers
AC Milan through their official site present the most interesting stats and numbers produced by the game at the Bentegodi yesterday.
A boost of confidence was needed and it came in the right dose. Being back to winning ways after more than a month is a true boost for Vincenzo Montella’s AC Milan who now have an even more important series of games ahead. Starting with the clash against Juventus on Saturday evening. A crucial game, which could give the rossoneri that hoped-for consistency in results after the three points taken home on Wednesday evening away to Chievo Verona at the Bentegodi. A win that we analysed through these five numbers.
TWENTY-TWO
The number of matches AC Milan are unbeaten against Chievo in Serie A (19 wins and 3 draws). The Rossoneri are the team against whom the Gialloblu have lost the most in the Italian top-flight: 23 times.
ONE
Year has gone by since AC Milan last scored four goals away from San Siro: it was against Empoli in November 2016 thanks to a brace from Gianluca Lapadula and a goal from Suso.
FOUR
Are the goals scored by Suso this season so far. His net at the Bentegodi is his third away from home. The Spanish winger is top scorer of the rossoneri so far in Serie A with Kalinic following closely with 3 goals.
ONE
First goal in Serie A for Hakan Calhanoglu. The Turkish number 10 last scored (in all competitions) away to Austria Wien in Europa League. His goals and good performances are crucial to help Milan turn things around.
THREE
Are the goals scored by Nikola Kalinic this season so far. The Croatian last scored in an away game in Serie A in March (Crotone v Fiorentina). The 29 years old struggled initially with a muscular injury but finally seems fully fit.
