Two clubs in opposite halves of the Serie A table will do battle today in a league match between AC Milan and Chievo Verona. The first-division clash scheduled for 2:45 p.m. ET will be held at the San Siro in Milan and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on beIN Sports.
Chievo Verona's Alberto Paloschi had this to offer ahead of today's league encounter (via Football Italia): "I am glad because if a team like Chievo has invested so much, then it means that they believe in me. I am always joking with President Luca Campedelli telling him he did a half-crazy thing and I want to repay his confidence and that of sporting director Luca Nember."
"[The return this weekend] is special to me because with Milan I debuted in Serie A," he added. "And I have great memories of my time spent in the Rossoneri youth sector. I was taken from amateur football and they led me to the professional game. To them I will always be grateful."
