Defence and dribbling: Interesting numbers from Milan's first six league games
"AC Milan are playing really well in Serie A so far this season. They could have been better, but they could also be much worse. The draw against Juventus has put a cloud over a fantastic recovery after the first game. Milan look like a much better team, and they have worked their way up the Serie A table to a point where they are now in the Scudetto conversation."
"Only Roma have conceded fewer goals so far this season, but to have conceded three goals so far is magnificent. Then, they have also kept the second-most clean sheets (3), and they are the only team not to concede away from home. Allegri's team do not really contest the ball, with the fewest duels sought (233) and the fewest duels won (56). With this, his team also have the fewest fouls committed (47)."
AC Milan are playing really well in Serie A so far this season. A draw against Juventus has slightly clouded a strong recovery after the opening game. Milan have climbed the Serie A table and are now in the Scudetto conversation, though it is premature to rely on that outcome. Massimiliano Allegri has made significant changes to the team that have produced visible improvement. Defensively, only Roma have conceded fewer goals; Milan have conceded three goals and kept three clean sheets, remaining the only team yet to concede away. The team records few duels and fouls, but lead the league in successful dribbles (113) and have hit the woodwork six times.
