Milan vs Roma: Match Preview
Milan underwent a managerial change in the summer of 2025, appointing Massimiliano Allegri, and the results have been quite positive. After nine rounds, the Rossoneri have collected 18 points and currently sit fourth in the standings, just three points behind the top two. Their recent form includes two consecutive draws — 2–2 against Pisa and 1–1 versus Atalanta. However, injuries have hit the squad hard ahead of this fixture, with Pulisic, Rabiot, and Jiménez ruled out, while Leão remains doubtful. The bench looks thin, which could cause issues for Allegri’s side.
Roma, meanwhile, are among the league leaders and share top spot with Napoli. They’ve earned 21 points from nine games and trail only on goal difference. The Giallorossi have scored ten goals and conceded just four — the best defensive record in Serie A. They come into this match following two straight wins, having previously lost twice in a row.
Probable lineups
- Milan: Maignan, De Winter, Gabbia, Pavlovic, Saelemaekers, Fofana, Modric, Ricci, Estupiñán, Nkunku, Leão
- Roma: Svilar, Hermoso, Mancini, Ndicka, Celik, Cristante, Kone, Wesley, Soule, Pellegrini, Dybala
Prediction
Two evenly matched sides, both eager to extend their unbeaten streaks, promise a tightly contested encounter. Goals may be at a premium here, so the smart pick is the total under 2.5.
