Concedes once in draw Milinkovic-Savic made one save and allowed one goal in Wednesday's 1-1 draw versus Hellas Verona.

Impact Milinkovic-Savic conceded once just before halftime versus Verona, and was forced to only make one other save through the 90 minutes. This is the third time in the past five games which the Serbian keeper saw two or fewer shots on target, a credit to the team's defense over that stretch. Still, not keeping a clean sheet versus a last-place Verona side is not the best result out of the match. Milinkovic-Savic faces a tougher task on Sunday as he takes on a superior Salernitana attack.
