AC Milan hosts Genoa in round 31 of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Sunday, April 18th at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza (San Siro) (Milan)
The club from the fashion capital is gradually lagging behind Inter, which reduces its chances of a champion title. Stefano Pioli simply does not have enough human resources to keep AC Milan in strong shape throughout the long competitive period. There are also problems with the condition of the team leaders. An important challenge for Milan will be to maintain its position in the Champions League zone. Ibrahimovic received a stupid red card in the last round, leaving Milan without a main forward. Rafael Leao, who once shone with his goal-scoring talents in France, must solve this problem. Skillful Kessie, Rebic, Calhanoglu, and Saelemakers should also compensate for the absence of the Swede. However, the defenders of Milan were not distinguished by their reliability in the last rounds.

Genoa is a middle peasant of the Italian championship that occupies the 13th line in the standings, outranking the relegation zone by ten points. The Griffins have practically ensured their place in the elite, and the coaching staff can gradually prepare the team for the next championship in the final segment of the season. Davide Ballardini works with the team. He was appointed to his post in December 2020. However, the coaching staff of Genoa has more than enough work to do - the quality of the team's roster leaves much to be desired. The downside lies in the large number of loaned footballers who will leave the club at the end of the championship.
Milan must not lose points in matches against the middle peasants of the Italian championship and its outsiders. Pioli's charges are at risk of leaving the Champions League zone. Without Ibrahimovic, the game of the hosts will change - it will become faster due to the abilities of Rafael Leao. Genoa will play defense first, relying on set pieces and counterattacks. But the hosts will probably manage to earn three points.
Prediction for the match: AC Milan to win
