Latest Genoa vs AC Milan team information

Milan have received good news as defender Emerson Royal has returned to training after three months out, while Kyle Walker has fully recovered. However, Luka Jovic – who has just returned and started in Conceicao’s 3-4-3 formation – has a back injury, so his ability to play is still uncertain. If he does not recover in time, Tammy Abraham or Santiago Gimenez will replace him.

Christian Pulisic – who has scored in both of his last two visits to Genoa – remains the big hope, alongside Rafael Leao.

On Genoa's side, main striker Andrea Pinamonti has failed to score in nine consecutive Serie A matches - his worst drought since the 2019-20 season. However, he is still trusted to start, possibly supported by former Milan player - Junior Messias.

Genoa’s injury list is long, with Maxwel Cornet, Ekuban, Cuenca, Onana, Malinovskyi and Miretti – who is out for the rest of the season with a shoulder injury – but Sebastian Otoa is out of suspension and ready to return after a red card on his debut in April.

Latest football commentary Genoa vs AC Milan

Riding on the momentum of their resounding Milan derby win over Inter, AC Milan extended their winning streak by beating Venezia 2-0 last weekend.

Milan are currently ninth in Serie A and their chances of qualifying for European football through this tournament are almost gone. Therefore, they are focusing all their efforts on the upcoming Coppa Italia final against Bologna – the opponents they will also face in this round of Serie A.

History is on Milan's side, having won five of their last six visits to Genoa's Stadio Luigi Ferraris, keeping four clean sheets. Another win would keep them in good spirits and give them a boost ahead of the crucial game in Rome.

On the other side of the front line, Genoa held Milan to draws in their last two meetings (3-3 and 0-0), although they have only won 1 of their last 14 matches. Under the leadership of coach Patrick Vieira, the Ligurian team has improved significantly compared to the beginning of the season, and is now safe from relegation.

However, their form has been slowing down. Genoa have lost two games in a row against Napoli and Como, and have failed to score in their last three. April has seen their attack suffer a serious decline, with just one goal in the month, and only Parma have had fewer shots.
