AC Milan take on the visitors AS Roma in the quarterfinal match of Coppa Italia. The match will be played on Wednesday, February 5th at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza (San Siro) (Milan).
Milan Pioli won the Scudetto and returned to the Champions League. But after last season, which brought 2nd place, they said goodbye to this coach. And they clearly didn’t guess with the successor, it was not for nothing that Paulo Fonseca was fired on New Year’s Eve — and talk of his resignation began after the first matches, which immediately brought misfires. It seemed that his successor and fellow countryman, Sergio Conceição, had a great start: they consistently beat Juventus and Inter and won a trophy, albeit in the form of the Super Cup. There were no problems in the Champions League either, although many did not like the defeat of Dinamo Zagreb in the last round. But in the very first match of Serie A there was only a draw, and they lost to Juventus. In the derby with Inter, leading until 90+ minutes, they still conceded and missed the victory.

Roma has noticeably come to life under Ranieri. The Giallorossi still can’t return to the Champions League. Mourinho, who started with a victory in the Conference League, the first European Cup for the club, has not coped with this task. After his dismissal a year ago, De Rossi started well, but eventually lost in the semi-finals of the Europa League and finished in Serie A only 6th. He was removed in the new season, after active transfer work on requests for Daniele in the summer. But that decision only made things worse: Juric did not so much take points with his charges as he clashed with them, even getting into a fight at half-time with one of the players. It is not surprising that Ranieri, having returned from retirement and for the third time returned to the post in Rome, managed to improve the game quite quickly. Although there are also misfires, like the defeat to the newcomer, Como. In the last round with Napoli, however, they ended with an honorable draw. At the same time, they confidently reached the playoffs in the Europa League.
Last season, the clubs played four times, and the "red-blacks", having taken 6 points in Serie A, then lost twice in the Europa League. And in December, there was 1-1 at the San Siro - after which Paulo Fonseca was shown the door. It is unlikely that this match will be spectacular, the result is at the forefront - we are betting on "total under 2.5 goals."
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
