Milan and Torino would both be in Serie A’s top four based on the last six games, statistics from FootyStats reveal.
Both sides started the season poorly and dispensed with their Coaches, with the Rossoneri dismissing Vincenzo Montella and appointing Gennaro Gattuso.
Meanwhile, the Granata took the decision to replace Sinisa Mihajlovic with Walter Mazzarri and it appears the decision is paying off for both teams.

A look at the Serie A form table shows Napoli and Juventus leading the way with six wins from six, but both Milan and Toro are surging.
The Diavolo are third based on results over the last six games with four wins and two draws, scoring 11 goals and conceding four.
The Granata, meanwhile, are two points behind that with three wins and three draws from their last six.
Milan’s minimum aim this season was a top-four finish, and their poor start appeared to have ruled that out but Gattuso’s men are now only nine points behind Roma in fourth.
That’s thanks in no small part to the poor form of Lazio, Roma and Inter who lie eighth, 10th and 11th in the form table respectively.
Another side pushing for European qualification is Sampdoria, who currently sit in sixth place, just six points off a Champions League place.
While that may look like a stretch for the Blucerchiati, their impressive home form could well see them sneak a top four place.
Marco Giampaolo’s side take an average of 2.23 points at Marassi, and they continued that trend with a 2-0 win over Verona this weekend.
It’s away from home Samp must turn things around though, with just three wins in 11 Serie A games on the road so far this season.
Lazio’s top four hopes were dealt a blow by defeat to Napoli at the San Paolo, their third Serie A defeat on the spin.
The Biancocelesti took an early lead before being pegged back on 43 minutes and collapsing in the second half.
That has become something of a feature for Simone Inzaghi’s side, who would be third in Serie A if games ended after 45 minutes.
The second half turnaround was perhaps to be expected though, with Napoli also strong in the second half.
The Partenopei lead Serie A by a point, but they’d be six adrift of Juventus if only the first 45 minutes were played.
