AC Milan

Summary

Generated by

AC Milan head into Saturday's derby against Inter under real pressure after a damaging 2-4 home defeat to Bologna, their first league loss of the season. The result has dropped them to fifth in Serie A with 18 points from nine games, seven points behind Inter, and pushed them outside the Champions League places. Ruben Amorim cited fatigue and a crowded injury list as factors, telling DAZN after the match: "Tante partite, tanti giocatori fuori, è uscita un po' di stanchezza."

The squad situation remains a significant concern. Eight players missed the Bologna game, including Adrien Rabiot, Mario Gila, Diego Moreira, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Samuel Chukwueze, and Fikayo Tomori, who went off injured during the match itself. There is some relief ahead of the derby, with Sky Sport reporting that Gila, Rabiot, and Moreira all returned to group training on Thursday morning. Amorim is expected to restore Rabiot and Gila to the starting eleven, with Pulisic also returning to the lineup after being rested against Bologna.

The derby now carries extra weight. A second consecutive defeat would stretch the gap to Inter further and deepen questions about the squad's depth and consistency under Amorim. Milan host Inter on Saturday 31 October at San Siro, with the match broadcast on both DAZN and Sky.
