Fresh off a 4-1 victory over Torino, Milan head coach Stefano Pioli previewed the upcoming match with Roma.

The two teams will face each other in less than a week.

While Stefano Pioli’s squad are sitting at the top of the Serie A table, Roma have only collected one point in two games.

“As a team we need every game to grow and get to know each other better,” Pioli told DAZN in last night’s post-match interview.

“Loftus, Reijnders and Pulisic are ahead of the other newcomers. As soon as I can, however, I guarantee playing time to others such as Musah, Chuku, Okafor: only by playing can they improve and find the right condition.”

“Roma? I’m already thinking about the game. We play on Friday so we don’t have much time to prepare. We must get ready as soon as possible.”
