Amorim's Milan debut in Serie A against Torino: all the Rossoneri's previous first‑day records

The new Milan under Ruben Amorim begins its Serie A adventure away from the Olimpico Grande Torino. A start far from the warmth of San Siro, the venue of the debut in the last two seasons, but numbers on hand suggest the away game could prove a valuable ally to break the recent spell.

Milan, the debut seesaw

The Rossoneri's performance at the start of the league in the last seven years shows many often convincing openings, but still marked by huge slip‑ups against familiar opponents:

2019/20, Udinese‑Milan 1‑0 (72′ Becao).

2020/21, Milan‑Bologna 2‑0 (35′, 51′ Ibrahimovic).

2022/23, Milan‑Udinese 4‑2 (2′ Becao, 11′ Theo Hernandez, 15′ Rebic, 46′ Diaz, 49′ Masina, 68′ Rebic).

2023/24, Bologna‑Milan 0‑2 (11′ Giroud, 21′ Pulisic).

2024/25, Milan‑Torino 2‑2 (30′ own goal Thiaw, 68′ Zapata, 89′ Morata, 90′ + 5′ Okafor)

2025/26, Milan‑Cremonese 1‑2 (28′ Baschirotto, 47′ Pavlovic, 61′ Bonazzoli).

The match against Torino is the third encounter in the last ten championships. Both previous meetings were played in Milan: the first ended 3‑2 with a hat‑trick by Bacca and a penalty by Belotti saved by Donnarumma, the second with the comeback signed by Morata‑Okafor under Fonseca's management.

To find the only historic precedent linked to a first‑day match at Torino's home one must go back to 1939, when the granata won 2‑1. Awaiting Amorim, therefore, is the task of rewriting history and giving Milan a beautiful start, securing three important points.

Milan, transfer window closed in defence. Nkunku‑Lipsia, we are ready. New name for the front three.
