AC Milan promises to be an intriguing encounter as both teams navigate their respective seasons. Currently, Genoa holds the 13th position in the league with 39 points, having recently suffered a defeat to Como . Conversely, AC Milan sits in 9th place with 54 points after securing a victory against Venezia. Their last meeting ended in a stalemate of 0-0, indicating that both teams have the potential to neutralize each other effectively .
Milan are actually in good form coming into this game, at least by the standards otherwise set in 2024-25. They have three wins in their last four games, with three clean sheets, only one goal conceded and nine scored.

That is mostly down to the change in formation to a 3-4-3, which has brought some balance and stability in ways we analysed in a recent feature. As such, it is expected that Conceicao will stick with that system.
Genoa possible starting lineup: Leali; Norton-Cuffy, De Winter, Vasquez, Martin; Frendrup, Masini, Thorsby; Messias, Pinamonti, Vitinha
AC Milan possible starting lineup: Maignan; Tomori, Gabbia, Pavlovic; Jimenez, Fofana, Reijnders, Hernandez; Pulisic, Abraham, Leao
Genoa faces significant challenges with multiple injuries affecting key players including Malinovskyi and Balotelli . This lack of depth may hinder their performance against a Milan side that is eager to improve its standing in the league. The probable lineups suggest that while Milan is likely to field strong players such as Leao and Bennacer, Genoa may struggle to find cohesion due to their injury woes .
Milan's formation change has revitalized them, and the competition for cup final spots should spur them to a winning performance at Marassi.This makes Milan a dangerous opponent, especially considering their superior squad depth. Genoa might try to frustrate Milan with a packed defense, hoping for a draw, but the Rossoneri's attacking prowess, now unlocked by the tactical shift, should eventually find a way through. Key players like Leao and Giroud are finding form at the right time, and the midfield is dictating play with greater efficiency. While Marassi is always a tough place to go, Milan's hunger and renewed confidence should be enough to secure a crucial victory and keep their cup dreams alive. The pressure's on Genoa to prove they're not simply fading away, but all signs point to a Milan win here.
