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.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Milan have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 0-0-1 (win-draw-loss) from one match.
Spezia form and stats
0-0-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie A numbers at home for Spezia so far this season. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Spezia, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.
