• Lazio vs Monza Prediction: Serie A Match on 23.09.2023

Serie A Preview

AC Milan had made a promising start to the new Serie A season, as they had won their opening three matches to start the new season. However, that solid form came unstuck on matchday four, as they were easily beaten by Inter Milan at the San Siro. Despite the defeat, Milan remain third in the standings, and they sit just three points off the top spot. 

But, they will need to quickly put their performance against Inter behind them, as they were hammered 5-1 in the first Milan derby of the season. AC fell apart in the second half of that fixture, as they conceded three goals. Rafael Leao was the only bright spark on a difficult evening for Milan, as he netted what turned out to be a consolation in the 57th minute.

 

Hellas Verona will also have a point to prove in Serie A this weekend, as they come into this fixture after failing to win in their previous two matches. That poor run of form came after winning each of their opening two games at the start of the season. 

Despite recent shortcomings, Verona still sit ninth in the league standings, and they could move into the Champions League spots if they pick up maximum points this weekend. They avoided losing a second straight match last weekend, as they picked up a point against Bologna. 

AC Milan vs Verona Head to Head

Milan has an excellent record in this fixture, as they have won ten of the previous 17 clashes between these sides. Over that period, Verona have won just three times, and four draws have been played out. Milan have won each of the last five, which includes a 3-1 win in this exact fixture last term. 

AC Milan vs Verona Prediction

Milan will need to put their no-show against Inter behind them this weekend if they are to consolidate their place in the top four. The fact that they have an excellent record against Verona is challenging to overlook, meaning that we will be siding with a home win.
