Inter Milan can currently sit comfortably at the top of the standings because their rivals are increasingly losing their balance in fighting for a place at the top of the standings. Even Juventus, after experiencing defeat to Inter Milan, has yet to win and in the last 5 matches it shows that Juventus' performance is increasingly declining. Meanwhile, Milan also after losing to Monza and lost 1 player in this match, so they lost their balance even more and this defeat is not surprising because Milan sometimes also lack stability in the season when they face quite busy matches, although this is not the expected result, but this is it Football always has surprises in it.

Indeed, Juventus' recent performance has disappointed its supporters and also the bettors who favored Juventus to win, because after experiencing a defeat against Udinese, which is also a weak club, Juventus also experienced a draw against another weak club and now the points gap with Inter Milan is getting wide. Juventus opportunity is to maintain its position in 2nd place before Milan takes over the ranking if Juventus suffers another defeat or draw.

The poor form and performance of their rivals gave them the advantage and they didn't take chances but grab the opportunities when it came knocking. This is a club with an ambition to win the league trophy this season and since the beginning of the season they've been the one of the most outstanding team and worked their way up to the very top of the league, they've maintained that position for a very long time and it's obvious that they'll win the Scudetto this season. Well AC Milan's defeat by Monza really came as a suprise and to make things worst they got booked with a red card.

 Juventus had an opportunity to close the gap to about 7 points but they went ahead to draw with a team in the relegation zone and widened the gap to about 9 points currently. That's very bad cause it's affected their chances of winning the Scudetto and further put Inter far ahead of them. I don't see Inter taking any chances, if you notice, they're the only team that's won their last 5 fixtures in the Serie A.

But honestly Monza played very well, I almost did not expect that Ac Milan could not be made to move like that in this match, yes even though they could collect two goals to keep up but Monza could not be stopped easily, 4 goals they collected for victory in the 25th week match.

Inter Milan like the easy way to go to the top until the end of this season, Juventus from their last 5 matches got the results of 2 draws and 2 defeats, of course making Inter Milan much more comfortable at the top of the standings, as well as AC Milan who often lose concentration and consistency in collecting points, in view of the match against Monza I think the formation applied by Pioli is easily penetrated by Monza which results in their defense being very weak.

The results of last week's match made Inter Milan feel at an advantage because their competitors experienced draws and losses so that Inter Milan became more comfortable at the top of the standings. AC Milan lost concentration on playing better when one player got a red card and they tried to play carefully so as not to concede more goals. But unfortunately Monza responded well and they tried to throw away attacks so they managed to take advantage of the opportunities to score goals which gave them the win.

What was even more disappointing was that Juventus drew with a bottom team that is in the relegation zone and I saw that Juventus' performance really did not show a game like a club capable of competing for the title this season. Two points behind Juventus and this will be quite fierce competition in the top two to three standings because Juventus and AC Milan's points are quite close.

Its not easy for signing Antonio Conte as Milan's manager because he has huge payment salary and won't little money for signing players, believe or not Milan financial condition is not really well regarding last several transfer players more dominance with loan or free agent. Seems Antonio Conte prefer to be Juventus manager if they will sack Massimo Allegri have bad result in last several matches. Current performance from AC Milan I think he not only has to sack Pioli but also they need allocated much money for active in transfer window signing many top players.

Actually between Milan and Juventus are both teams have inconsistency performance this season and difficult pressure Inter Milan on the top standings position. Seems Scudetto tittle race over with Inter Milan one step forward to be the winner and Juventus achievement should finish in Champion League spot standings.

Acmilan can only compete for UCL this time. This club has zero chance to enter into the title race caused by intermilan has been fully dominating it. I think that other clubs have no chance to get scudetto this seaosn. it's caused by the situation is impossible due to the big gap between intermilan and its competitors.
Milan played so horrible against monza and im getting very upset to the performance from this club. it feels like we have lost the good performance from milan. There may be annoying aspect that is greatly impacting the club. The line up was bad and the way acmilan set up was bad.
Acmilan team was not very compact defensively and struggled against monza. Acmilan was still lucked enough caused monza has more chances to add more goals but milan was lucky enough. All of acmilan fans did nothing even though it were scoring two goals but what's that mean?
It means nothing at all. Milan was still losing against monza. The fact that if it was conceded a lot of goals against a mediocre club like monza which was very pathetic. All what acmilan did during the game is aimlessly pass the ball around.


I don't even see if milan had a target that can be achieved during the game. it's such a disgraceful to see milan lost against a club like monzao. I would not be the only one that would be complaining about how badly the performance from milan. And that's why i will give credit to the monza.
Monza's defensive structure was so brilliant. Monza did look a bit disjoined, but it's still going very well for the club.

This match was very strange for me because I felt like I had been set up to lose several matches because I saw that AC Milan was a pretty strong team and couldn't possibly be beaten by a team like Monza, who was in the top 11, but in reality, Monza managed to beat AC Milan, fell to their knees, and disappointed AC Milan fans. Even many gamblers lost their money because they made the wrong decision; they thought AC Milan would win this match.

I can agree if Juventus and AC Milan won't keep these coaches. They failed to strengthen the teams, they even make them weaker. Also, they failed to win the Scudetto this season. I don't want to judge too early, but I only see Inter Milan as the champion of Serie A this season.

What do you mean? 
If Pioli can't make AC Milan to play consistently, it means Pioli isn't a good coach.
He may be good for another team but he isn't suitable to manage AC Milan. AC Milan has a high target every season, Pioli isn't likely to achieve it.
So, I can agree with AC Milan management to fire him.

As far as I know, Conte is rumored to replace Allegri as the Juventus coach for the next season. Since, Allegri will leave Juventus after this season ends, I'm very sure that Conte will replace the position. Conte will try to have a great season again with Juventus. It is interesting to see how good Conte managing the current Juventus squad.

I don't think Monza will be able to humiliate Milan 4-2, I'm sure many bettors will lose big for this match, Even statistics on the progress of the match show that the ball possession of both teams is balanced at 50% - 50%
When the match was over, Pioli immediately held a press conference and claimed that they were trying their best, it's just that Monza was luckier than us, I'm not so sure, I suspect there is something dirty behind this match because Italian teams have been involved in fixing scandals several times the final score of a match.

That was a surprising defeat for AC Milan and a happy round for Inter Milan which not only see AC Milan losing 3 points but also Juventus missing 2 points after their draw against Verona. I don't know what's worse, to see Milan defeat vs mid-table team or Juventus draw against a team in the relegation zone.
After all, that was a good reward for Inter, they are right now in advance with 9 points and could go up to 12 since they still lacks 1 match.

The last time we saw such a great performance from Inter Milan was during the time of Jose Mourinho. They are 9 points ahead of struggling Juventus even with an outstanding match which if won will give them 12 points clear. Sincerely, the level of competition for the top spot of Serie A this year is quite disappointing. At the early stages of the league, AC Milan was in the chase for the title but all of a sudden the backslide and are even struggling to keep up with the pace of the league.

If the present trend is sustained, then Inter Milan will win the league with ease because everything has aligned in their favor. They have a strong defending and attacking force which make them score many goals while conceding just few. This is what is expected of a team that is determined to lift the trophy. 

It was very unfortunate that Milan got a defeat against a small team like Monza. Milan missed the chance to overtake Juventus in the second place. If they won the match, they already returned to the second place now. The red card got by Luka Jovic was a disaster, it makes AC Milan difficult to play with their best form. AC Milan lost 1 player in minute 52', it was still in the early of second half of the match. Even worse, AC Milan lost 1 player when they were 2 goals behind.

For Monza, it was a great game, they played impressively. Leading 2 goals in the first half of the match, it becomes the key that they could beat AC Milan at their home. Although AC Milan dominated the match, Monza showed that they played more effectively. If they could keep a good game like this match, Monza can finish the season in the top 10.

There were few rumours about Antonio Conte is coming in next season but still nothing is officially about this all with AC Milan doing good job but suddenly one defeat create serious fireworks for the Pioli which is not bad at all because just because of his strategy now things are looking much better and AC Milan is sure going to end between second and third spot in early half of the season things were looking not good, but they have done good job and recover all.

Defeat against Monza is surely not good, but we also need to check all ground realities which are giving all things how they lost this all just one player done mistake and all team suffer just because of this even they fight back, but last few minutes again bring them down and also lost chance for the second spot.

Inter Milan proven to be the top team competitive for the scudetto, they have drawn but not giving to keep ranking first on the Seria A league table. Juventus gradually declining in performance because they lack the   necessary winning scores to beat their opponents this current season. Massimiliano Allegri is showing signs of weakness with his present technique, not able to beat the mediocre teams he faces with his team. The results observed are totally unacceptable because Juventus are elite team and they should be able to comprehend tough threats.

There were too much talk after change of coach and things were also not good but now in last seven games they have 5 wins 1 lost and 1 draw clearly indicating things are going on positive way for the Roma, and they can give better in coming weeks as well which is positive change their defense is still having problems, but attack is now having improvement which is giving them good results but in coming weeks hopefully they will be more aggressive with their approach because this is most wanted things for them Frosinone is on bad run, and they try their best for having something but Roma done good job and not allow them to have anything which stop them from having full three points and also near their target which is still not easy for them while we have good performance from few other teams as well.

I get that Milan could be inconsistent at times, but we are talking about a team that should be able to beat Monza at least. Sure they could lose to better teams and I would be fine, not saying just Juventus or Inter, but Atalanta or Lazio as well. However, they should be able to beat Monza, that is not a good team at all, just makes no sense to me.

I believe that we are going to end up with a world that has to be accepting that Milan just dropped the ball so to speak. They could have been second place and take over Juventus, and not like Juventus is doing alright neither, they are doing terrible so it would have been a smart way to approach it, and instead it ended up being not so great for Milan neither, a shame really.

The 2nd and 3rd positions are not much different so it's not very important for them what is clear is AC Milan and Juventus are still at the top 4 to get a ticket to the Champions League next season, while Inter Milan is really comfortable at the top of the standings no other team can chase them. I am not interested in paying attention to the top 4 but I am more interested in monitoring the top 5 I can see that 5 teams will compete to get it including Bologna, AS Roma, Fiorentina, Lazio and Napoli obviously this struggle is tighter.

With their current performance and difference of points they are not comfortable for me now they are going to be champions without any challenge because having 9 points difference and one match in hand all other teams are struggling badly Atlanta having 18 points difference so no one can stop them from winning if they keep things at this level most chances we will have good lead from them with all other opponents.

AC Milan defeat is also not ideal because this was good chance for them to have second spot, but now they need to be focus on their remaining matches for the better results with Juventus is now in trouble losing 10 points from last four games and having no win even against weaker sides making life tougher for Allegri as well which is now under huge pressure for bringing changes.

AC Milan's chances of winning the title are already over. But this match against Monza was crucial for Milan. Because Milan would have been able to occupy the second place in the table if they could get 3 points from this match. They missed the opportunity.

At the end of the first half, the Milan team was trailing 2-0. Monza scored two goals in the last minute of the first half. Milan's players were not at all ready to concede these two goals. After Luka Jovic received a red card at the start of the second half, I thought Milan couldn't get back on track. Even then, Milan scored two goals in the 65th and 88th minutes to equalize the match 2-2. But luck was not with Milan. Monza players scored two goals in 90+2 and 90+5 minutes. And Milan lost the match 4-2.

Milan was forced to swallow the bitter pill by Monza, that defeat certainly made them even more far behind Inter. For the first defeat of Rossoneri to Monza also made a new history for the club owned by the former Milan President, they had never defeated Milan. So the dramatic victory that was successfully achieved by Monza made them have a great opportunity to avoid the degradation zone. Congratulations to Monza and immediately evaluate the team for Milan!
