Venue (City, Stadium) | Stadio Luigi Ferraris |
Genoa vs AC Milan puts a home side on a proper winning run up against a Milan attack that rarely stops scoring. There's a reason the visitors are 1/1 with Coral.
Daniele De Rossi's side arrive having won their last three Serie A matches, with Juventus among those beaten. The table is less kind to them, with Genoa still down in 12th.
Rúben Amorim's Milan sit fifth. They beat Inter Milan 3-1 in the Derby della Madonnina, then lost away to Ferencváros in the Europa League in midweek.
History isn't on Genoa's side either. Milan have been level at half-time and winning at full-time in their last three away matches against Genoa in all competitions.
Genoa vs AC Milan Form
Genoa have won their last three Serie A matches and were ahead at half-time and full-time in all of them, so they aren't scraping results. The 2-1 win at Lecce showed they can do it away from home too. Morten Frendrup has been the constant in the engine room, and that midfield has given De Rossi a stubborn base.
Milan's Serie A record reads nine unbeaten from their last 10 matches, and Adrien Rabiot has been the standout, scoring in each of his last four Serie A appearances. Europe is the blot. The midweek defeat at Ferencváros was a reminder that this side can still be got at when the focus slips.

Genoa
The Genoa vs AC Milan lineups point to a settled home side. De Rossi sticks with a 3-5-2, with Leo Østigård at the heart of the back three, Frendrup driving the midfield and Milutin Osmajić leading the line. Lorenzo Venturino and Elias Havel are the only doubts.
AC Milan
Milan have five players ruled out, and losing Fikayo Tomori and Matteo Gabbia hurts most at centre-back. Amorim's 4-2-3-1 is still loaded in the final third, though, with Rabiot pulling the strings behind Gonçalo Ramos.

Genoa vs AC Milan Prediction & Best Bets
Our prediction: Genoa 2-3 AC Milan. Genoa's winning run deserves respect and they will have their moments, but Milan have the better players in the final third. Genoa also struggle against skilful attackers, and that is exactly what Pulisic, Rabiot and Moreira are. Expect an open, messy game that the visitors edge on quality.
Best Bets
AC Milan to win in the Win Market. The visitors are the model's favourites and have won 7 of their last 8 away games against Genoa. Milan top our Genoa vs AC Milan best bets because they carry a win probability of around 52%, more than double Genoa's. Across their last seven away matches against Genoa in all competitions, they have scored at least twice on six occasions, and the away win was flagged as a value bet.
Over 2.5 goals in the Total Goals Over/Under market. The model projects 2.58 goals, and Genoa have seen over 2.5 goals in 5 of their last 6 home games against Milan. That projection sits just above the line, and the over was flagged as a value bet as well. With Milan scoring freely and Genoa winning their own games, a goalless grind looks a long way off.
Genoa vs AC Milan Bet Builder
Our Genoa vs AC Milan bet builder tips go all in on the Milan attack: Rabiot to score anytime, Milan to score twice or more, and Pulisic to land a shot on target.
Adrien Rabiot has scored in 4 of his last 4 Serie A appearances. Playing as the central attacking midfielder behind Gonçalo Ramos, he is well placed to keep that run going.
Milan have scored 2+ goals in each of their last 4 Serie A matches. Genoa's problems against through balls and skilful players give Milan's creators plenty to aim at, so Over 1.5 Total Away Goals makes sense.
Christian Pulisic has recorded at least one shot on target in 5 of his last 5 Serie A appearances against Genoa. Milan like attacking down the left, which puts him right in the thick of it.
At the time of writing, this bet builder pays a best price of 15/2 and is as short as 29/5 elsewhere.

Genoa vs AC Milan Talking Points
Firepower is the story here. Milan have already put away 21 Serie A goals under Amorim, and that gap in quality is why the Genoa vs AC Milan betting odds make them favourites. Genoa are chasing a fourth straight Serie A win in a single season, something that has escaped them for well over a decade. Their best route is down the left, where Stephan El Shaarawy takes on Mario Gila. At the other end, Ramos against Østigård is the duel that could decide it. Milan's one soft spot is protecting a lead, which is another reason to expect goals at both ends.
