Strahinja Pavlovic spoke to the media just a few minutes ago and admitted that tonight’s clash against Lazio is ‘a great opportunity’ for AC Milan.
As a result of Inter’s draw against Atalanta on Saturday afternoon, Milan could reduce the gap once again tonight. A win against the Biancocelesti would take it down to five points which, albeit still very difficult, would at least give them some more hope.
Speaking to DAZN just a few minutes ago, as transcribed by MilanNews, Pavlovic admitted that Milan have a great opportunity that they simply must seize. He also warned that facing Daniel Maldini will be a difficult task for the defenders.
It’s a big game for the Scudetto race…
“A great opportunity. We are ready, and we need concentration from the get-go. We have to think about ourselves and play our game until the end.”
There will be a lot of Milan fans present too…
“Yes, 10,000 today. I’m very happy.”
How difficult is it to mark a player like Daniel Maldini?
“It’s not easy. We have to be ready for him and always be alert. He’s a great player, with so many qualities. We have to be ready for him.”
Since Matteo Gabbia is still unavailable, Pavloivic is starting alongside Koni De Winter and Fikayo Tomori in defence once again. The trio have done very well lately and will definitely be hoping to continue their positive run tonight.
