But two weeks in a row Milan are getting the 14:00 hours Sunday slot. That's traditionally the 'midtable and not very important' general Serie A card slot while the later in the day it is for TV coverage, the bigger the match. Like Sunday evening then night has Juve Torino then Roma v Inter.

It seems despite the great name of Milan, we truly have fallen even in the eyes of broadcasters - our hope (here in UK) is that we don't start getting shown less on TV, even if we do have to accept the 'lesser' KO time. Milan will continue to be shown on Sky Sport Italia but I really hope BT don't start to reject us in favour of other matches more frequently.

Yes, it's the 'usually' bit that concerns me in light of the last two.

Yeah, but no team can take up all the night time fixtures

I think Juve and Roma have both played more afternoon fixtures than us so far this season

I think it mostly depends on the opponents we're facing that week and what other important games are taking place.

Usually derbies (no matter which ones - even if it's the Genoa derby or Sicilian derby) are played at night, then you have the big fixtures with the top teams facing each other.

For example, Juve will be playing at 6pm today, even though it's still a derby the Roma-Inter fixture is deemed more important so they get the night time slot
