AC Milan vs Verona Predictions

Can Milan Bounce Back Against Verona to Keep Their Top-Four Hopes Alive?

• Milan’s struggles at the back – The Rossoneri have gone four consecutive home league games without a clean sheet, making them vulnerable to conceding again.
• Verona’s defensive nightmare – The visitors have shipped 53 goals this season, making them one of the worst defensive teams in Europe’s top five leagues.
• Goals are likely at both ends – Six of the last eight meetings between these sides in Serie A have seen three or more goals scored, with Milan winning each of the last eight.

Best Bet for AC Milan vs Verona

AC Milan return to domestic action on Saturday, desperate to shake off the disappointment of their midweek Champions League defeat as they welcome Hellas Verona to San Siro. The Rossoneri’s 1-0 loss to Feyenoord left them with an uphill battle in Europe, but their focus must now shift back to Serie A, where they are still fighting to break into the top four. Currently sitting in seventh place, Milan are seven points adrift of the Champions League spots, meaning that every game from here on out carries immense weight.

While Milan’s European struggles are grabbing headlines, Verona’s situation is equally precarious, though for entirely different reasons. The Gialloblu are hovering just above the relegation zone, with only three points keeping them safe from disaster. Their season has been defined by inconsistency, and last weekend’s crushing 5-0 defeat to Atalanta served as a brutal reminder of their defensive frailties. To make matters worse, history is firmly against them in this fixture—Verona have never won a Serie A match at San Siro. Their last 65 attempts have ended in failure, and given their current form, that miserable record looks unlikely to change.

Milan, despite their flaws, have been dominant against struggling teams, winning 11 of their last 15 games against sides in the bottom six. They also boast an eight-game winning streak over Verona, underlining their superiority in this fixture. However, complacency could be their biggest enemy. With the second leg against Feyenoord looming, Sergio Conceição must ensure his players are fully focused on the task at hand.

Why Should You Back This Prediction?

Milan have shown a habit of conceding goals at home, and that trend is hard to ignore. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last four league matches at San Siro, and their defensive vulnerabilities were exposed again in midweek when a rare mistake from Mike Maignan gifted Feyenoord the only goal of the game. With Fikayo Tomori suspended, Milan’s backline will be reshuffled, which could create even more uncertainty at the back.

Verona, for all their struggles, have been more effective on their travels than at home this season. While they were demolished by Atalanta last weekend, they had been relatively solid away from home before that, losing just one of their previous five matches on the road. With key midfielder Ondrej Duda returning from suspension and Daniel Mosquera leading the line, they have enough quality to trouble a Milan defence that has looked anything but watertight.

That being said, Milan’s attacking firepower should ultimately prove too much for Verona. Santiago Gimenez has made an instant impact since his arrival from Feyenoord, scoring in both of his first two Serie A matches. With Christian Pulisic and Tijjani Reijnders pulling the strings in midfield, the Rossoneri should have no issues creating chances. Verona’s defence has been one of the worst in Europe’s top five leagues, conceding a staggering 53 goals this season—only two other teams across the continent have fared worse.

“Milan’s defensive concerns make a Verona goal more than likely, but their attacking quality should see them through. Expect an open game, with Milan ultimately proving too strong.”
— BettingTips4You.com expert Luca Semproni

With Milan expected to dominate but also vulnerable at the back, a 3-1 home victory seems the most probable result. The Rossoneri should have enough firepower to take the three points, but Verona may find a way to get on the scoresheet.
