AC Milan and AS Roma have one final act before closing shop for 2024. The two sides will face off in one of the top matches in Serie A on Sunday. Here we have a prediction of the match.
Milan have put up a strong showing at home in the run up to this game. They start this game in eighth place, seven points ahead of Roma and five below European football places.
Milan’s 1-0 win at Verona last time out marked their third undefeated outing, having won twice. It was also their second straight clean sheet. Across all competitions, Milan are unbeaten in five home matches and in three of them at least one side failed to score.
AS Roma have stabilized a lot since Claudio Ranieri’s return. The veteran manager had a few shaky days at the start but the team is now steady, as depicted by their massive wins in recent times.
They are coming from a 5-0 win against Parma in Serie A, marking the fourth game in five that they scored at least three goals. An area that perhaps the visitors need to work on is their defence, as they have two clean sheets only in 10 matches.
Their away run is also not really convincing, Roma coming here without a win in their last 11 matches on the road this season.
A cagey affair is in the offing as these two sides clash off the back of impressive runs in recent matches. Roma will hope to rise above their away day woes, while Milan will be looking to extend their good run at home. One stat, however, stands out here; both teams scoring hasn’t been a recurring stat in their matches. Our prediction for Milan v Roma is for one or both sides to fail to score.
