Milan - Form analysis: Pioli's imminent departure is not conducive to results
The Milan leadership took the defeat in the Europa League quarterfinals hard - they lost to Roma in both legs. Now they are in search of a new coach - it's almost certain that Stefano will step down in the summer. It's not surprising that in such circumstances, they failed to win not only against Juventus (0-0) but also against Sassuolo (3-3). They also lost to Inter in the derby as the nominal home team. The match against Genoa ended in a thrilling 3-3 draw.
Cagliari - Form analysis: progress towards season objectives has been challenging
The "Islanders" had a difficult time returning to Serie A from Serie B, only doing so through the playoffs. They struggled at the start at their new-old level. However, the management had enough patience to continue trusting Ranieri. This has been justified, especially with the results since mid-February. They had draws with Napoli, Inter, and Juventus, as well as victories, including one against Atalanta. They also shared points with Lecce but played in a minority there.
