Serie A 14 round preview AC Milan has a shortage of talent at both ends, and Genoa prefers the oppon

Mondo Sports Updated on 2024-01-19

The 14th round of Serie A matches continued on the evening of December 2, Beijing time, AC Milan's back line and forward line were full of injuries, and it was inevitable to find midfielders to play as defenders in this game. Genoa have already beaten Salernitana and Hellas Verona at home to the top two of the table this season, and Empoli, who are third in the round, will also be a guest at Port City

Olivier Giroud, who was suspended from Serie A last week, almost surprised Milan fans in the Champions League in midweek, scoring from the penalty spot in the sixth minute, but Giroud was unable to capitalise on the opportunity to give Milan the lead. Since there were no surprises, let's be a scare, and four minutes later Borussia Dortmund were also awarded a penalty and Reus did not repeat Giroud's mistake.

The stunned Milan fans had no surprise to come, as Chukweze received a pass from Calabria just before half-time to score for MilanFirst goal。The first goal of the new signing in the Champions League is a very auspicious omen, presumably Milan fans at this time are reminiscing about the previous Champions League magical moments, but unfortunately the lack of strength has pulled them back to reality, Giroud did not complete the redemption of himself, and Dortmund became more and more courageous, and finally Milan successfully made a wedding dress for the opponent. Although there is still hope of qualifying, Milan fans may not dare to hope for it.

While Milan are struggling, last season's Serie B champions Frosinone have gone from strength to strength, winning three of their last six games and even picking up one point more than Milan over the same period, and have climbed into the middle of the table. Frosinone have been resilient this season, with just three games after 13 rounds to reach two goal nets against the top five teams at the moment. And against teams in the middle and lower reaches, they have a very high point stealing rate.

In the last round against relegation rivals Genoa, who have also been in good form recently, Frosinone played with the style of a strong team, not only mastering close to 60% of the possession, but also turning the situation around through substitutions when they were passive. The winner was scored by substitute defender Montlis.

Milan will face a very serious personnel shortage in this game, with striker Olivier Giroud suspended, Rafael Leao injured, Jovic struggling to take on the role, and Kamalda will at least be able to playNourish your eyes。The backline is also riddled with injuries, with Krunic likely to play at centre-back as he did in the Champions League in midweek. Frosinone is expected to hold Milan to a 0-0 draw.

Promoted side Genoa have won two of their last four games, which has temporarily extended their lead over the relegation zone to one goal. Genoa, who were promoted directly from Serie B last season with a tough defence, have found a way to maintain their defensive intensity when they arrive in Serie A this season, and are currently the third-fewest in the bottom half of the table with 18 goals conceded.

Genoa's last two victories have come at home to sit bottom of the table.

The first and second place teams won the score 1-0, which shows that they can control the situation well against both teams. Empoli are third from bottom against them, while Genoa are playing at home and they can finish at homeThe bottom three of the listThree kills?From the next round onwards, Genoa's opponents will inevitably improve, so they must save up enough money to lose now.

Empoli have been very slow to get into form this season, suffering five consecutive defeats at one point and losing 7-0 to the likes of Roma. But they have recently started to bounce back, and seven points from the last six rounds is not a small amount for a relegation team. Empoli were confident at home to Sassuolo in the last round as they had beaten defending champions Napoli earlier.

Empoli did get off to a good start as they took the lead in the fourth minute with penalties, but Sassuolo's attacking line was in excellent form, with goals from Pinamonti and Berardi both netting to make it 4-3 to Empoli. Three goals is already Empoli's record for most goals in a single game this season, but it's a shame they haven't been able to win.

Genoa are unbeaten in five games at home to Empoli in the Serie A era, with two wins and three draws. Genoa have been very consistent at home and will be looking to win 1-0 against relegation zone Empoli again.
