Milan have traveled here for an interesting Champions League fight against Paris Saint Germain. Prepare for the match with this cup preview!

Milan have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Milan form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Serie A travels is 4 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat.

Milan might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Juventus proved too strong as Milan slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. Defender Calabria was the best team player with a rating of 7.25. Calabria won 5 of 6 duels.

Before that one, a nice away victory 1-0 at Genoa.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Milan when being an outsider away as they are today, we find 4 matches with the visitors losing 1 time, drawing 2 and winning 1 game.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Milan manager Pioli as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Napoli.

Milan has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 9 goals from 5 games. Milan have conceded 7 goals in these away matches.
