MILAN FUTURO v PESCARA: MATCH PREVIEW

Pescara are on the menu for Milan Futuro's Sunday Lunch, on Serie C matchday 28. It is a match which will be an important but difficult test, just like the previous and future matches. Making calculations is not needed, gaining points is more important. We prepare for kick-off with our usual Match Preview. 

LATEST FROM MILAN FUTURO
Coach Bonera's Rossoneri have to keep marching forward, but also while looking behind them and returning to the form shown at the start of the month. The win against Ferrara showed the true strength of the group, after gaining reinforcements in the Winter transfer window. Results against SPAL, and then Ascoli and Rimini prior to that showed signs of progress and raised hopes, but then losses against Lucchese and Pianese - the most recent narrow defeat caused by a conceded penalty and Camporese's early red card (now suspended) - delivered a negative blow. The team need to raise their level of focus to the maximum in order to improve their performances and turn key moments into positive moments, whilst also looking for more attacking sharpness, as goals have been lacking for a while.

It's also been a difficult period for Gli Abruzzesi. In the first meeting between the sides this season, Pescara faced the Rossoneri as league leaders, winning convincingly, but now they sit in fifth, still in the play-off zone but eleven points off the top of the table. Since the end of 2024, Baldini's side have dropped their pace a bit, a trend that has become even more evident since the Winter break: just one win - away at Carpi - in the past two months, alongside four defeats and five draws. Last weekend, they were defeated at home by Ascoli, a 1-2 loss with the decisive blow coming in stoppage time, despite Pierozzi's opener. Their need for redemption will be undeniable.
