The “glorious” played very well in the last rounds. For the previous five, they managed to defeat Aibaru and Athletic Bilbao with the same score of (2: 1). By the way, they did it in their native glade. They were also finished with a draw with Sevilla (1: 1) and Leganes (0: 0). The only team that managed to upset Alaves fans during this period was Mallorca, which managed to achieve a minimum victory over the Basques (1:0) at home. Such good results allowed Alavez to move slightly up the standings and stop in 13th place, nine points from the relegation zone. Basques play well at home. For 13 matches in the current championship they have conceded only three times in their native walls. There are, however, some personnel problems. Due to disqualification, Aleix Vidal will miss the game. Also at the infirmary Oliver Burke and Thomas Pina.
Milan also does not justify the forecasts of fans – after 25 rounds, the team of Stefano Pioli is only in seventh place in the table. The Rossoneri may well compete for the Europa League, given a three-point gap from the sixth Napoli, but they are unlikely to be able to sway more – the fourth Atalanta is 12 points away. In the last round, Milan had every chance to bring three points from Florence – the Rossoneri were in the lead and had a numerical advantage, but in the end they almost lost. Draw (1: 1) further removed the team from the Champions League area, and showed that there were plenty of problems in the game. Nevertheless, the final of the Italian Cup for Milan may become a panacea – in the home match they looked no weaker than Juventus, and his position cannot be called hopeless. Theo Hernandez and Zlatan Ibrahimovic were disqualified.
