OPTA STATISTICS
AC Milan have won two of the three Serie A matches against Spezia, completing a KO in last season's second leg, 0-2 at the Picco stadium.
Spezia have lost all three of their previous matches at the Meazza in Serie A (between Inter and Milan), only at the Olympic stadium in Rome have they played several times in the competition (four) always finding defeat.
Spezia remained undefeated in three of the five Serie A matches against opponents who occupied the top two positions in the standings at the start of the championship: the win against Milan in February 2021 and the one against Napoli last December was joined by a draw against Inter Milan in April 2021.
Milan have won their last three league games, always scoring at least three goals: the last time they scored more than two goals in consecutive Serie A games was in November 2011, when they reached five.
Milan have won 10 of the 11 games played in this championship against teams currently in the lower half of the table (1N), they are the team that has scored the most points against these opponents (31, three more than Inter and Napoli at 28).
Spezia have won their last two Serie A away games without conceding a single goal: in the previous 28 away games in the competition they had achieved a total of five wins, keeping clean sheets on just three occasions.
No team has scored more goals than AC Milan in the last half hour of play in this Serie A (18 goals), a situation in which Spezia have scored just seven goals, the worst figure in the league.
AC Milan's Theo Hernández is only the third defender in the last 15 leagues capable of taking part in at least nine goals (four goals, five assists) in the first 21 matches of a Serie A season, after Robin Gosens (11 in 2019/20 and 10 in 2020/21) and Achraf Hakimi (10 in 2020/21).
Rafael Leão made his only multiple scoring in Serie A in October 2020 against Spezia; against any opponent the AC Milan striker has scored more goals in the competition (two).
Simone Bastoni scored his first Serie A goal against Milan, in a 2-0 win in February 2021; no player has scored more away goals than the Spezia defender in this league (three, such as Federico Bonazzoli, Josip Ilicic, Riccardo Orsolini and Nikola Kalinic) without scoring even one at home.
