AC Milan and Lazio will lock horns with each other in Serie A this weekend. The match between Massimiliano Allegri’s side and Maurizio Sarri’s team will be held at San Siro and is scheduled to kick off at 7:45pm UK time on Saturday.
AC Milan
AC Milan are one of the biggest clubs in the world and have been challenging for the Serie A title in recent seasons and have also been doing well in the UEFA Champions League. However, the Rossoneri endured a disappointing 2024-25 campaign.
The Rossoneri ended up as low as eighth in the Serie A table last season and could pick up only 63 points from 38 matches. Milan finished seven points behind Juventus, who occupied the final UEFA Champions League spot in the Serie A table. Milan are now second in the Serie A table with 25 points from 12 games, just two points behind leaders AS Roma.
Milan will head into the Serie A match against Lazio at San Siro on the back of a 1-0 victory over Inter in the Derby della Madonnina. It came after a 3-2 defeat at the hands of Virtus Entella in a friendly match, which followed a 2-2 draw with Parma on the road in Serie A.
Team News:
AC Milan are likely to line up in a 3-5-2 formation against Lazio. Mike Maignan will be in goal for the Rossoneri. Fikayo Tomori, Matteo Gabbia and Strahinja Pavlovic will be the three defenders. Alexis Saelemaekers, Youssouf Fofana, Luka Modric, Adrien Rabiot and Davide Bartesaghi will be the five midfielders. Christian Pulisic and Rafael Leao will be the two centre-forwards for Milan.
Lazio
Lazio are one of the biggest clubs in Italy and tend to challenge for the European places in the Serie A table on a regular basis. Le Aquile, though, finished a disappointing seventh in the league table last season and will be determined to at least end up in the UEFA Champions League places.
Things are not going so well for Lazio at the moment. Maurizio Sarri’s side are eighth in the Serie A table right now with 18 points from 12 matches, six points fourth-placed Inter Milan and nine points behind leaders and city-rivals Roma.
Lazio will head into the Serie A match against AC Milan this weekend on the back of a 2-0 victory over Lecce at home in the league. It came after a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Inter Milan at San Siro in Serie A, which came after a 2-0 victory over Cagliari in the league.
Team News:
Lazio are likely to line up in a 4-3-3 formation against AC Milan. Ivan Provedel will be in goal and will have Adam Marusic, Mario Gila, Alessio Romagnoli and Luca Pellegrini in front of him in goal. Matteo Guendouzi, Danilo Cataldi and Toma Basic will be the three midfielders. Gustav Isaksen, Boulaye Dia and Mattia Zaccagni will be the three forwards.
