AC Milan prepare to take on Atalanta at SanSiro on Sunday at 6pm, following a clear 4-0 win over Salzburg and two successes in Serie A. The Rossoneri, still unbeaten in the league, aim to break their run of eight defeats against the Dea, while Atalanta, who have lost both away games in the league, look to consolidate their positive form following their 3-1 win against Pafos in Europe.
Over the last few years the precedents between the two teams have been decidedly unfavorable for the Rossoneri: 69 victories in favor of Milan against 32 for Atalanta and 49 draws. However, the last decade has seen a reversal of the balance. Since 2023, Milan have not won against Atalanta, with the last success dating back to that 2-0 match at SanSiro. Since then they have met eight times, with three 1-1 draws and five victories for the Dea, who have proven to be a particularly tough opponent. The last match at SanSiro, in the previous season, ended 3-2 in favor of Atalanta, with an initial domination by the Nerazzurri and a late comeback by Milan thanks to Pavlovic and Nkunku.
Milan, which has just achieved its first victory in the championship after the defeat against Venezia, also relies on young talents such as AlphadjoCisse. The attacking midfielder, born in 2006, has already scored a hat-trick in Europe and established himself as the team's top scorer. With an average of a goal every 70 minutes, his form could push him to become a starter ahead of the match against Atalanta, where his presence on the pitch could be decisive.
For fans who want to follow the match, the match will be broadcast live on DAZN and on Sky Sport, with the possibility of streaming on SmartTV, tablet, smartphone and PC. The match, in addition to offering a direct comparison between two high-level teams, represents an opportunity for Milan to interrupt the long series of defeats against the Dea and re-establish their position in the standings. Atalanta, on the other hand, will look to consolidate their positive form and confirm their strength in SerieA.
