In a weekend match on Saturday Dec 4th, in week 16, Milan hosts Salernitana at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in a meeting of these two extremely mismatched Serie A teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cold day, with daytime temperatures of only 3 degrees, making for an unpleasant day. Milan sits at 2nd place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 1-3 loss against Sassuolo. Alessio Romagnoli scored the first goal for Milan in the 21st minute, then in the 24th minute, Giacomo Raspadori sent in a beautiful pass which was converted by Gianluca Scamacca Finally they completed the comback victory in the 33rd minute on a goal by Simon Kjær to cap off a wild match. Milan is on a hot streak lately, having won 7 of their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 20th placed Salernitana, recorded a 0-2 loss against Juventus. Paulo Dybala scored the first goal for Juventus in the 21st minute, then Morata added another in the 70th minute In the end, Salernitana couldn’t muster any offence and Juventus ran away with the shutout win. Salernitana looks to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 7 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Milan’s most prolific scorer has been Zlatan Ibrahimović. The Swedish attacker has netted two goals over the last 5 matches.
