AC Milan vs Ferencvaros Match Summary

Competition

Europa League

Match Date

Thursday 5 November 2026

Match Time

19:45 SAST

Venue (City, Stadium)

Milan, Stadio Giuseppe Meazza

AC Milan host unbeaten Ferencváros at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in the Europa League. For a Rossoneri side stuck on three points, this is a fixture they cannot afford to fumble.

Ruben Amorim's men arrive buzzing after a 3-1 derby win over Inter. Europe is another story: they have lost two of their three Europa League games and sit well off the pace.

Ferencváros arrive with a perfect Europa League record and a 20-match unbeaten run in all competitions behind them. Balázs Borbély's side are stubborn, well-drilled and dangerous on the break.

The stakes are clear. Another loss here would hand Milan consecutive European home defeats in one campaign for the first time since 2010/11. Ferencváros are chasing a fourth straight win in Europe.

AC Milan vs Ferencvaros Form

At home in Serie A, Milan are humming, with just one defeat from their opening ten league games and Christian Pulisic opening the scoring in the derby win over Inter. Europe is a different animal. A home loss to Benfica was followed by a heavy defeat at Bournemouth, and a shaky defence has shipped ten goals in the six competitive games just gone.

Ferencváros are the in-form side here, and it isn't close. The Hungarian champions have won five of their last six competitive matches and drawn the other. On the road they are as stubborn as they come, unbeaten in their last ten away outings. Bamidele Yusuf, among the scorers in the rout of Torreense, is the man to watch.

AC Milan vs Ferencvaros Lineups & Team News

Injuries & Suspensions

AC Milan: Alexis Saelemaekers (Injured/out), Pietro Terracciano (Injured/out), Matteo Gabbia (Injured/out), Samuel Chukwueze (Injured/out), Ruben Loftus-Cheek (Injured/out), Fikayo Tomori (Injured/out), Mike Maignan (Suspended)

Ferencvaros: Bence Ötvös (Injured/out), Matúš Bero (Injured/out)

AC Milan

The AC Milan vs Ferencvaros lineups show Amorim stretched thin across the pitch. With Mike Maignan suspended, Lorenzo Torriani takes the gloves behind a back three of Koni De Winter, Mario Gila and Strahinja Pavlović, and Tomori and Gabbia are both out. Diego Moreira and Sankhoun Diawara should work the flanks, while Luka Modrić and Yunus Musah pair up in the engine room behind Adrien Rabiot, Gonçalo Ramos and Pulisic.

Ferencvaros

Borbély is missing only Matúš Bero and Bence Ötvös, so the side behind that unbeaten run stays largely intact. Dénes Dibusz starts behind Attila Osváth, Toon Raemaekers, Mariano Gómez and Cadu, with Ádám Madarász and Habib Maïga screening the back four. Kristoffer Zachariassen, Márius Corbu and Veljko Birmančević support Yusuf up top.

AC Milan vs Ferencvaros Prediction & Best Bets

Our prediction: Milan to win, with both sides finding the net. The projections give the home side a 67% win probability, and their attack has the firepower to make it count. With Torriani in goal and Tomori and Gabbia missing, though, this backline has too many holes to keep Yusuf quiet. Both teams scoring sits at just over 61% on the same numbers, and that view shapes our AC Milan vs Ferencvaros best bets below.

Best Bets

Luka Modrić to have over 1.5 shots in the Player Shots market. He is expected to start in midfield for a home side the model rates as clear favourites. Milan are projected to score well over two goals here, which points to plenty of attacking volume. With the home side tipped to have most of the ball, the man pulling the strings in the engine room should get his looks from the edge of the box.

Adrien Rabiot to have over 1.5 shots on target in the Player Shots On Target market. He is expected to start in Milan's front three. Milan are projected for about 4.4 shots on target as a team. Playing off the right of that front three, Rabiot should get plenty of opportunities to test Dénes Dibusz.

AC Milan vs Ferencvaros Bet Builder

Our AC Milan vs Ferencvaros bet builder tips pair a Milan win with a Gonçalo Ramos goal at any time, goals at both ends and a card for Endre Botka.

AC Milan to win. Amorim's side have scored 14 goals in their last six competitive matches. Ten of those came before half-time, so they tend to throw the first punch.

Gonçalo Ramos to score anytime. As the central striker in Milan's front three, he is the man on the end of the service from Pulisic and Rabiot, and the projections rate his scoring probability at 48.59%.

Both teams to score: Yes. Milan's patched-up defence has been leaking goals, and Ferencváros bring Yusuf and Zachariassen in form, so a clean sheet at either end looks a stretch.

Endre Botka to be shown a card. Ferencváros play with a physical edge that has already cost them in Europe. Botka isn't in the predicted XI, though, so check the team news before kick-off.

AC Milan vs Ferencvaros Talking Points

The opening quarter-hour could decide this one. Christian Pulisic has made a habit of flying out of the blocks, and every one of his goals this season has been an opener inside the first 15 minutes. At the other end, Bamidele Yusuf has done most of his damage in all competitions within the opening 20. That early threat at both ends sits at the heart of our AC Milan vs Ferencvaros prediction. In the engine room, Luka Modrić's ability to control possession will be tested by the energy of Ádám Madarász and Habib Maïga. Amorim has preached humility, saying "we can lose any game, we can win any game", while Borbély called this trip to Milan a test of an entirely different calibre that demands strict defensive shape and quick breaks. The battle that matters most is Milan's makeshift defence against a direct, confident Ferencváros front four.
