Prediction: 1-0
Genoa
AC Milan will look to move closer to the Champions League berth when they take on Genoa at their Stadio San Siro on Matchday 16. The Rossoneri are eyeing their fifth home win of the process, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. USA ace Christian Pulisic has joined the likes of Luka Jovic, Ismael Bennacer, Alessandro Florenzi in the recovery room, while former Salzburg forward Okafor is a major doubt.
The Rossoblu, on the other hand, defeated the likes of Parma (1-0) and Udinese (2-0) in the last two away games, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Milan, who are a real force to be reckoned with at home. Considering that Paulo Fonseca’s men are eager to stay in the Champions League race, home win should be considered. All Ahanor, Ekhator, Malinovskyi, Ekuban, and Messias are injured for the visiting side, while De Winter will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
