Gallery: ‘Superb Sunday clashes’, ‘Never say Scudetto’ – Today’s front pages in Italy

A big clash beckons for AC Milan, taking on Roma in the capital this evening, and the newspapers naturally focused on it a lot this morning. 

Massimiliano Allegri and his men are currently six points behind their city rivals Inter, who beat Pisa rather convincingly in the end on Friday. In other words, Milan need to come away with a win against Roma tonight.

That’s easier said than done, though, as the Giallorossi have been in very good form this season. They have lost a lot more games, more specifically seven, but thanks to no draws they are still just four points behind the Rossoneri.

Allegri admitted in his press conference that a very good performance will be needed to clinch the win, but at the same time, Milan are confident after their recent displays.
