Anytime Correct Score 1-0
Playing at the Meazza, Milan scored first in five of their eight home games. Roma meanwhile conceded first in four of their eight away games.
AC Milan
AC Milan extended their unbeaten run to four matches as they registered their second win in a row by beating Salernitana 1-2 on the road in the previous round. The Rossoneri were quickly back to business after the World Cup break as they went 2-0 up within the first 5 minutes.
The reigning champions had ten shots on goal in the process but settled with two goals which is their sixth in four Serie A matches. With 31 goals scored and an average of 1.94 goals per game, Stefano Pioli’s team has the third-best offense in the league.
AS Roma
With the 1-0 home win against Bologna, AS Roma went back to winning ways after 3 winless matches, extending their unbeaten run to 3 matches in the league. The Giallorossi have won 4 of their last 8 matches in Serie A.
AS Roma have conceded an average of 0.88 goals per game since the beginning of the season in the league. AS Roma form stats indicate an average number of goals conceded per game of 0.75 in the last 8 league matches, which is 14.8% lower than their current season’s average.
This will be a very interesting fixture as both teams are entering this game after winning their previous fixture. Milan were more convincing though and we think they have a better chance. Thus, we will back a home win or draw combined with over 1.5 goals.
AS Roma scored at least a goal in seven of their eight away games in Serie A. In addition, Roma are averaging 1.1 goals scored per game when playing on the road. Thus, with odds of 1.50 at 1XBet, we predict Roma to score over 0.5 goals.
Olivier Giroud was a key player for France in the World Cup in Qatar as well as with Milan this season. The Frenchman is the author of 14 goals since August in all competitions and is the favorite by the bookies to get on the scoresheet on Sunday.
For Milan, Ballo, Rebic, Origi, Florenzi, and Ibrahimovic are ruled out due to injury. Maignan is doubtful.
On Roma’s side, Belotti and Darboe are nursing injuries.
AC Milan: Tatarusanu; Calabria, Kalulu, Tomori, Hernandez; Bennacer, Tonali; Saelemaekers, Diaz, Leao, Giroud:
AS Roma: Patricio; Mancini, Smalling, Ibanez; Zeki Celik, Zalewski, Pellegrini, Cristante; Dybala, Zaniolo, Abraham;
Sunday’s game will be played at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in Milan.
