AC Milan vs Hellas Verona on Matchday 38 of the 2022/23 Serie A campaign concludes a hard season for both clubs at the Stadio San Siro on Sunday night, although the visitors could yet end on a moment of joy if they avoid relegation to Serie B.
The Rossoneri’s title defence was over before the World Cup enforced mid-season break and a final opportunity to salvage their year ended with a Champions League semi-final exit at the hands of bitter rivals Inter. With Milan having nothing to play for, it should give Verona confidence of leapfrogging Spezia into safety.
Although the Gialloblu occupy the final relegation place, both they and the Aquilotti are tied on 31 points, who have a similar test against AS Roma, with the side from the capital unable to reach the top four and having played in the Europa League final four days earlier.
AC Milan vs Hellas Verona: Predicted line-ups
There is still the incentive to overtake Inter into third position, so Milan coach Stefano Pioli is expected to play a strong side at the San Siro, but Ismael Bennacer will definitely miss out because of a muscle injury and Zlatan Ibrahimovic will also not feature.
Few of the Verona squad have convinced this term, meaning contributions from the bench could be crucial if the starting XI struggle in Milan and, if Darko Lazovic and Kevin Lasagna pass late fitness tests, they can provide an attacking contribution late on.
AC Milan predicted XI vs Hellas Verona (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Thiaw, Tomori, Hernandez; Krunic, Tonali; Messias, Diaz, Leao; Giroud.
Hellas Verona predicted XI vs AC Milan (3-4-2-1): Montipo; Magnani, Hien, Cabal; Faraoni, Tameze, Abildgaard, Depaoli; Ngonge, Gaich; Verdi.
