Competition: Italy Serie A
Competition: Sat 19.February
Match begins: 19:45 (UTC)
Venue: Stadio Arechi (37245 seats)

Both Salernitana and Milan are aching for points in this fixture, despite the visitors holding a 43 point lead so far this season.

Insights:
  • Salernitana have the fewest scored goals (17) in Serie A
  • Milan have the most scored goals (29) away in Serie A

These teams have little in common geographically as Milan have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

With seven home Serie A games in a row without a win, the Salernitana fans could feel they are not getting value for their money.

In the match before that, Salernitana hosted Spezia and drew the game 2-2.

Salernitana aren't scoring a lot here at Stadio Arechi in the league, with only 7 goals from 11 games. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Salernitana with 26 goals conceded in these matches.
