Match Stats

AC Milan:

AC Milan began 2024 with a promising start, securing a fourth consecutive home win in the Coppa Italia against Cagliari. A subsequent league victory over Empoli fueled optimism, but their Coppa Italia journey was cut short by Atalanta in the quarter-finals. Despite this setback, Milan remains focused on Serie A, having collected 16 points and four clean sheets in the last seven matchdays. With a solid home record against Roma, including five unbeaten meetings, Milan aims to maintain pressure on the top two teams, sitting nine points behind Inter Milan.


Roma:

On the other hand, Roma's recent form has been marred by setbacks, including league losses to Bologna and Juventus and elimination from the Coppa Italia. A contentious Derby della Capitale defeat against Lazio further compounds their struggles, leaving them eighth in Serie A. With Jose Mourinho serving a suspension, Roma faces a challenging task to reverse their away form, having lost their last two away games without scoring. The Europa League remains their primary hope for silverware amid a disappointing campaign.


Analysis:

Milan faces defensive challenges with injuries to Kalulu, Thiaw, and Tomori, but Gabbia's recovery provides some relief. Pobega is unavailable, and Florenzi is doubtful. Bennacer and Chukwueze are at AFCON. Okafor returns to training. Pulisic, Leao, and Giroud lead the attack. Giroud aims for double figures for the third straight Serie A season. Roma's Lukaku, seeking to continue his scoring streak against Milan, may partner with El Shaarawy or Belotti. Dybala's injury is a concern for Mourinho, who also deals with defensive issues as Ndicka is at AFCON, Smalling is sidelined, and Mancini and Llorente have minor injuries.
