JAKARTA - AC Milan coach, Stefano Pioli admits the competition to win the Italian Serie A title this season is very tight. He said there was no favorite team for the current champion.
This was revealed by Pioli after AC Milan played a goalless draw against Torino. The meeting took place in the 32nd week of the 2021/2022 Italian League on Monday, April 11 in the morning of Indonesian Western Time (WIB).
The draw against Torino did not change Milan's position in the standings. They remain at the top with 68 points.
However, the results were not optimal in the two games also made AC Milan only two points away from Inter Milan who followed in second position. AC Milan's position can't be said to be safe either because Inter still have a game in hand.
Meanwhile, if you look at the competition at the top of the standings, the situation is also getting fiercer because there are Napoli who have 66 points and Juventus with 62 points who also have the opportunity to become champions.
Based on this standings, Pioli then said the competition to win the Italian League title was still very open. According to Pioli, all teams could slip in the remaining matches.

"Over the last two or three weeks, whoever is called the favorite team to win tends to slip. There is no favorite team to win now," Pioli was quoted as saying by Football Italia.
In the last three weeks, Pioli claims that the public thinks AC Milan is the favorite team to win. However, the favorite label then moved to Napoli and now to Inter Milan.
"This is a competitive league. Every game is very difficult. You can't predict the outcome of the game so it's very difficult to judge which team is the favourite," said the Italian coach added.
In the next match, AC Milan will face Genoa in the 33rd match, Friday, April 16. The match could be a momentum for Milan to return to a positive path.
However, AC Milan also cannot relax because after the meeting with Genoa there was an important match full of prestige. The Rossoneri will face Inter Milan in the second leg of the Coppa Italia semifinal, on Tuesday, April 19.
