Quotes
 
“We must think that we ended the Girone d'andata with just one point more than last season, so it was barely an improvement," Milan manager Stefano Pioli said after his side's win over Empoli.
 
“Now, we must think about earning as many points as possible, we can't think about anything else. There is a big gap with two clubs ahead of us [Inter and Juventus], but the season is long, and there are many points still available. 
 
“As a coach, behaviour makes the difference, not the words and I have never had the feeling that players were letting me down. I am proud of the work we are doing at Milan. The availability and determination make us go ahead even if results ultimately make the difference."
 
Head-to-Head 
 
Milan emerged as 2-1 winners over Roma in their last meeting in Serie A which was on 1 September 2023 at the Stadio Olimpico.
 
As a result, Rossoneri are undefeated in their last eight matches in the league against Wolves having registered three draws and five wins.
