AC Milan, Recent FormThe 3-2 away defeat to Atalanta will not have sat easily with the AC Milan squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. In that game they had 58% possession and managed 14 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to Atalanta who had 19 attempts and 7 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 9 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have had a good run of form at Stadio San Siro recently, having won 4 out of their last 6 home games.
Olivier Giroud will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 4 goals in the last 6 league games for AC Milan.
Monza, Recent FormMonza will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 1-0 win in their home outing against Genoa. Their share of possession in that meeting was 51%, while racking up 6 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target. Genoa had 16 shots on goal with 1 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 8 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 6 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Monza will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
On an individual basis, Lorenzo Colombo will be looking to cause AC Milan some problems having scored 3 goals in Monza's last 6 away games in the league.
In the last league encounter between these sides, it was Monza who ended up empty-handed, losing 0-1 to AC Milan.
Monza has lost the last 2 times they've faced Milan in the league.
Milan manager Stefano Pioli has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Pierre Kalulu (Tendon), Simon Kjær (Muscle), Noah Okafor (Thigh), Marco Pellegrino (Heel), Marco Sportiello (Calf) and Malick Thiaw (Hamstring) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Raffaelle Palladino has a number of injury concerns in his Monza squad to contend with: Gianluca Caprari (Cruciate ligament), Armando Izzo (Physical discomfort) and Samuele Vignato (Physical discomfort)
