Comments, predictions Roma vs AC Milan: Tit for tat

Latest Roma vs AC Milan squad information

Ranieri could make changes to his squad after a poor performance against Atalanta. The only injuries are captain Lorenzo Pellegrini and Paulo Dybala, who is out for the rest of the season.

Striker Artem Dovbyk – the top scorer with 12 goals this season – is likely to partner Eldor Shomurodov up front. Dovbyk is currently the third-highest scoring rookie in Roma history behind Manfredini (1959-60, 16 goals) and Tammy Abraham (2021-22, 17 goals).

For Milan, Saelemaekers – who scored twice in the Coppa Italia win over Roma – remains the attacking option, alongside Santiago Gimenez and Luka Jovic, competing for a starting spot. Christian Pulisic, who has had 20 goal involvements this season, will continue to play a key role behind the striker.

Milan have just two injuries, Warren Bondo (ankle) and Riccardo Sottil (thigh). Sergio Conceicao is expected to stick to a 3-4-2-1 formation for this crucial match.

Latest football commentary Roma vs AC Milan

After an impressive 19-game unbeaten run in Serie A in 2025, Roma were halted by a 2-1 away defeat to Atalanta earlier this week, dropping them to sixth place with 63 points, amid a fierce top-four race.

Juventus and Lazio currently lead the race for the final Champions League spot on 64 points, with Roma just one point behind and Bologna right behind on 62. Remarkably, Roma have picked up 43 points since the start of 2025 – more than any other team – and kept 10 clean sheets in that time.

Claudio Ranieri's final home game will also be his 500th in charge of a Serie A match - a historic milestone more than 34 years after his debut with Cagliari in 1990. In his final days in charge of his boyhood club, Ranieri will certainly want to end it with a return to European competition.

However, Roma have not beaten Milan in their last 10 Serie A matches, and were also eliminated by the Rossoneri in the quarter-finals of this season's Coppa Italia.

AC Milan, meanwhile, suffered a heartbreaking defeat to Bologna in the Coppa Italia final last week – a match that was seen as the clearest path back to European football. They now return to the capital in eighth place, three points behind Roma, with just two games to go.

Since Sergio Conceicao took charge, Milan have had a positive start, winning the Italian Super Cup, but have since fallen off the pace and been knocked out of the Champions League. However, recent form has improved with three consecutive Serie A wins, including away wins against Udinese, Venezia and Genoa.

This will be a decisive match for Milan – if they don't win, their hopes of qualifying for next season's European Cup are all but over.
