Crushing out of Europe must have been a huge disappointment for Milan, but they are at risk of a bigger one if they fail to earn a spot in top-four in Serie A this season.
Stefano Pioli’s side must improve their results for the few last rounds to save themselves from a disastrous season, and they are capable of doing so when their opponents at San Siro this weekend are the already-relegated Sampdoria.
Spezia vs AC Milan-Match preview
Inter Milan were the far better side in both legs of Champions League semifinal, as the Derby dell Madonnia ended with a 3-0 defeat on aggregate for Rossoneri. It was the fourth straight defeat against the arch-enemy from town in decades, without scoring a single goal.
Milan have just suffered from a 2-0 loss against bottom-side Spezia last week, which marked their nightmare in all competitions to the utter shocks for the fans.
Sampdoria had been relegated with only 18 points on the board so far, even with Inter Milan legend Dejan Stankovic replacing ex-Milan manager Marco Giampaolo last October could not save them from a shock outcome.
The trip to San Siro does not mean much for Sampdoria, except for honor, while it could set some light at the end of the tunnel for Milan.
