The Rossoneri played their first matches in Saudi Arabia under their new coach, Sergio Conceição, who replaced Paulo Fonseca. The debut for the former Porto coach was a great success. In the semifinals, the Reds and Blacks outplayed Juventus 2:1, even though they were 0:1 down after the first half. In the final, AC Milan also made a comeback. The Rossoneri conceded two unanswered goals by the 49th minute. They improved in the second half and won in regulation time. First, Theo Hernandez scored from a free kick, then he assisted Christian Pulisic, and on 90+1 Tammy Abraham sent the winning goal for Inter. 3:2 - Conceição starts his job with a trophy.
In the last round of Serie A, Milan faced Roma at home and the game ended in a 1:1 draw. This was Paulo Fonseca's last game as Milan's manager. It's not surprising that there have been some changes to the staff. Even though Milan has one game less than some of their opponnets, they sit eighth in the league, eight points behind the Champions League spot.
Cagliari
The Sardinians' last match occured on January 5th, just as AC Milan were getting ready for their finals. Davide Nicola's team played Monza away and won, which was really important. After a few goals conceded in the sixth minute, Cagliari started playing better in the 22nd minute thanks to Zortea. In the 56th minute, they took the lead thanks to Roberto Piccoli. Then, just a few minutes later, the Islanders found themselves in the majority after a penalty from the opponent and kept the advantage until the final whistle – 2:1. Now, Cagliari has 17 points. The Sardinians have left the relegation zone, currently occupying 17th place in the Serie A standings, but in terms of points, they are on par with eighteenth Lecce.

Expert Betting Tips
Milan's victory in the Super Cup, also in the derby over Inter, has clearly boosted their morale. It's important, because the Rossoneri are far behind even fourth place in Serie A, and need wins. Milan has won most of their recent matches against Cagliari, so we predict a vcitory for the hosts. We also predict a lot of corners, since the Super Cup showed that Milan will continue to play attacking football under Conceição.
