Sinisa Mihajlovic: 'AC Milan not getting the same recognition as Juventus'

Sinisa Mihajlovic has said that AC Milan do not get enough credit as Juventus, despite both teams having similar form in the league.

The Rosseneri have lost just once in their last eight games but failed to start the season in similar form, mimicking Juventus's wobbly start, which the Old Lady have also managed to turn around as of late.

However, the Milan head coach feels that his players are not receiving the same credit as Massimiliano Allegri's side, who had a similar record in that same timespan.

"We have done well in the past eight matches and we have lost just one match," Mihajlovic said at his pre-match media conference.

"But I do not see the same enthusiasm around Milan that there is for Juve's recent run of results.

"My players have to stay focused on our objectives. We will fight for a top-three finish, the season is long, so let's see how the next five matches go and then the second part of the season."

AC Milan head to Capri on Sunday to try to close the gap on fifth-place Juve.
