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. LATEST FROM PESCARA 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.

Milan Futuro 0-0 Rimini: Penalty miss leaves Bonera's side with bittersweet feeling
Milan Futuro's winless run in the league continued as they were held to a 0-0 draw at home by Rimini in round 24, but they really should have got all three points. There was a bitter taste in the mouth after the 2-2 draw away against Ascoli one week ago as Milan gave away a late equaliser after a needless red card, and after having played well for most of the game. They were back home today and they got a clean sheet in a scoreless stalemate against Rimini, who are eighth in the table, but it inevitably leaves some regrets because Daniele Bonera's side certainly deserved a different score at the final whistle, just like last week. The biggest opportunity fell to Magrassi who took the responsibility of a spot kick in the 26th minute, but it was met by a great save for Colombi. There were further great chances for Ianesi, Quirini and Sandri, all in the second half. It was another good performance but ultimately another game without a win, extending the run to six games without victory in Serie C. The next match is on Saturday at 15:00 CET in Ferrara against SPAL, with the Futuro third-bottom in the league on just 19 points from 24 games.
