Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Thanks to Theo Hernandez’s late goal Milan recorded a very important 3-2 win over Lazio, with the team moving one step closer to winning their first Scudetto since 2011. The Rossoneri look unstoppable in the 2020/21 season, and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play against Benevento. Even though Hernandez (suspension), Gabbia (injury), Bennacer (injury), and Ibrahimovic (injury) are all out of contention for Stefano Pioli’s team, away win should be considered as the Rossoneri are high on spirits ahead of the first game of the year.
Benevento aim to build on back-to-back wins over Genoa (2-0) and Udinese (2-0), but Milan are likely to pose a much bigger threat for the hosts than their previous rivals. Since Iago Falque, Caldirola, Maggio, and Volta are all sidelined through injuries for Gli Stregoni, we are tempted to put our money on the league leaders.

Highlighted Player (Gianluca Lapadula):

Gianluca Lapadula, also known as Lapagol, due to his goalscoring abilities, was born in Turin and started his career at Juventus youth team, but was released because he wasn’t doing well in his studies. After the departure with Juventus, Lapadula perfected his goalscoring skills in lower Italian leagues and even spent one year in NK Gorica, Slovenia.
During his spell in Ravenna, he managed to finish the season 2012/13 as the top scorer in the group, netting 24 goals in the process. For a long period of time, the 28-year-old was Parma’s player, but he went on loans often, and, after Parma went bankrupt, Lapagol moved to Pescara. With 30 goals in 43 appearances, the striker caught the eye of Serie A giant Milan. He netted his first goal for the Rossoneri only three minutes after he came on as a substitute.
The following season Lapagol became the striker of Genoa. Even though he was called to play for Peru, the Genoa hitman decided to represent Italy, getting his first call to the senior squad in November 2016. However, he never made an official appearance for Italy, since he only played an unofficial friendly against San Marino, when he scored a hat-trick.
Highlighted Team (Milan):

AC Milan are regarded as one of the biggest club in Italy. The Rossoneri compete in the Italian Serie A and they have won 18 domestic trophies. Speaking of the club’s European success, Milan have clinched seven Champions League (European Cup) trophies.
Milan were on the verge of beating Liverpool in the 2005 Champions League final, but the Premier League outfit came from three goals behind and eventually won the prestigious trophy on penalties. The Rossoneri play their home games at Stadio San Siro (80,018), the stadium that was opened in 1926. It is well known that Milan’s bitterest rivals are Inter and there have always been fireworks when the two local rivals face each other in the Derby della Madonnina.
Milan were founded in 1899 by a lace-maker from England named Herbert Kilpin and a businessman Alfred Edwards. Milan’s home kits are red and black and that is why the team’s nickname is Rossoneri (The Red and Blacks).
The likes of Alessandro Costacurta, Paolo Maldini, Franco Baresi, Roberto Donadoni, Dejan Savicevic, Frank Rijkaard, Marco van Basten, Ruud Gullit and Andrea Pirlo are the most famous footballers who have represented the San Siro outfit.
