AC Milan vs. Roma FREE online live stream, lineups, prediction for Serie A match

The Serie A match between AC Milan and AS Roma, scheduled for December 29, 2024, at San Siro, represents a critical juncture for both teams amid contrasting seasons. AC Milan currently occupies a favorable position in the league standings, holding a seven-point advantage over Roma . This fixture not only serves as an opportunity for Milan to solidify their standing but also to conclude a tumultuous year on a positive note. The home team will rely heavily on midfielder Tijjani Reijnders, whose contributions have been vital in their attacking play this season

Milan are currently in eighth place with 26 points while Roma are in 10th place with 19 points. As these two teams find it difficult to break into the top five their derby rivals have had no such issues. Inter and Lazio are currently placed third and fourth on the table with 37 and 34 points respectively.

As such they have a point to prove, with the Serie A already in the midway stage, the teams will have to pull up their socks if they hope to close in on the gap. Paolo Fonseca and Claudio Ranieri are both experienced coaches because of which the match holds promise of being a high-level technical battle.

AC Milan possible starting lineup: Maignan; Emerson, Gabbia, Thiaw, Hernandez; Fofana, Terracciano; Chukwueze, Reijnders, Jimenez; Morata

Roma possible starting lineup: Svilar; Mancini, Hummels, Ndicka; Saelemaekers, Paredes, Kone, Angelino; Dybala, El Shaarawy; Dovbyk

In stark contrast, AS Roma has experienced significant instability throughout the season, culminating in the early sacking of manager Daniele De Rossi. Despite these challenges, recent performances suggest that Roma is beginning to find their footing again; they come off an impressive 5-0 victory that could provide momentum heading into this match. However, historical data indicates that AC Milan has been particularly dominant at home against Roma since 2017 and will aim to extend this streak.

While definitive lineups remain unconfirmed due to ongoing injuries—most notably for Milan with absences such as Leao and Pulisic—the expectation is that the home advantage will play a crucial role in determining the outcome of this encounter . Therefore, while predictions are inherently speculative given the unpredictable nature of football matches, the prevailing sentiment leans towards a favorable result for AC Milan based on their historical performance and current form.
