MAY, TO FINISH STRONGLY
MAY, TO FINISH STRONGLY AC Milan's season is approaching its final stretch, with our teams entering their closing run of matches. May is the month of decisive outcomes – there are several objectives still to achieve in order to crown weeks of hard work and, at the same time, thank our fans for their unwavering support. Here is a summary of the fixtures awaiting us in the coming weeks.
MEN'S FIRST TEAM With 360 minutes remaining in the league campaign, Massimiliano Allegri's side are edging closer to what, based on their performances throughout the season, would be a well-deserved return to the UEFA Champions League. Considering the advantage in head-to-head records over Como and Roma, mathematical qualification could arrive within the first half of the month. In any case, maximum focus and concentration will be required to reach the objective and complete the job.

Against already relegated Vogherese at the Chinetti, there is the opportunity to secure a Playoff place with a win (or through a combination of favourable results, considering the two-point advantage over sixth-placed Brusaporto). SERIE D Matchday 34, Milan Futuro v Vogherese, Sunday 3 May at 15:00 CEST (AC Milan Official App) - Stadio Chinetti, Solbiate Arno (VA) Potential Playoffs would take place on 10 and 17 May WOMEN'S FIRST TEAM With 270 minutes to go, Bakker's side are still fully involved in a challenging race for a place in the UEFA Women’s Champions League. For the Rossonere the objective is clear: win all remaining matches in order to attempt a comeback on third-placed Juventus (who hold a three-point advantage, with Napoli Women also in between).
The head-to-head advantage provides reassurance, but maximum effort will be required. SERIE A WOMEN Matchday 20, Inter v AC Milan, Saturday 2 May at 18:30 CEST (DAZN) - Arena Civica Gianni Brera Matchday 21, AC Milan v Parma, Sunday 10 May at 12:30 CEST (DAZN) - PUMA House of Football Matchday 22, Ternana Women v AC Milan, TBD (DAZN) - Stadio Moreno Gubbiotti, Narni (TR) MEN'S PRIMAVERA Three matches remain in the regular season for Renna's side. Mathematical safety, secured with the victory over Cagliari, now allows the team to look upwards in the standings, though the seven-point gap to sixth place makes a Playoff push difficult.
