Milan's Preparations For Real Madrid, Learn El Clasico Recording
AC Milan will travel to Real Madrid headquarters, Santiago Bernabeu, in the fourth match of the 2024/2025 Champions League, Wednesday, November 6, 2024, early morning WIB.
I Rossoneri has made maximum preparations before meeting the star-studded team.
Milan coach Paulo Fonseca even watched the El Clasico match where Real Madrid lost Barcelona 0-4 last week.
The recording of El Clasico, according to Fonseca, is the subject of his team's learning to find out more about Los Blancos.
"I watched Real Madrid vs Barcelona. It was impossible not to watch it. They are the team I love to watch."
"We are a different team, of course, but we used the recording from El Clasico to prepare for this match," Fonseca said at TMW.
AC Milan was not seeded when they met Real Madrid. Just like when they met rivals Inter Milan in the Derby della Madonnina in September 2024.
Fonseca was also asked about Los Blancos' favorites in a press conference on Monday, November 4, 2024, evening local time.
However, he did not agree to equalize the situation ahead of Inter's match with Real Madrid.
"It's the same because Milan is not favorite against Inter. We're also not favorite tomorrow."
"It's just that the matches are completely different. They are opponents with completely different styles of play."
"We have prepared ourselves for this match differently," Fonseca said again.
Milan faces Real Madrid who have longer rest time and preparations.
You see, Carlo Ancelotti's team did not play last weekend because the La Liga match against Valencia had to be postponed due to Hurricane Dana.
This means that since El Clasico on October 26, 2024, Real Madrid has focused on preparing for the Champions League against Milan.
