The Rossoneri tonight recorded a deserved 2-0 victory at San Siro to get back to winning ways in Serie A after drawing away to Atalanta. With goals from Leão in the first half and Giroud in the second, AC Milan got past a tricky opponent in Bologna to claim top spot in the table - ahead of Napoli's game - on seven points. Let's take a look at the main stats from our game on matchday 3:
1- AC Milan's streak of 19 consecutive unbeaten league games (W13 D6) is the longest unbeaten run currently ongoing in Europe’s Top-5 leagues.
2- AC Milan have not lost any of their first three Serie A matches of the season since Stefano Pioli became Rossoneri boss (three wins in as many games in 2020/21 and 2021/22, two wins and a draw in 2022/23).
3- Since the beginning of 2022, no team in Europe’s Top-5 leagues has collected more clean sheets than Milan (13 alongside Real Sociedad).
