In a mid week match in week 15, on Wednesday Dec 1st, Genoa will host Milan at Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris in a meeting of these two Serie A teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 9 degrees, which will make playing unpleasant. Genoa sits at 18th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 0-2 loss against Roma. Afena-Gyan struck first for Roma in the 82nd minute, then Afena-Gyan added another in the 4th minute of the second half’s stoppage time At the end of 90 a dissapointed Genoa couldn’t manage to score, and Roma took the shutout win. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 6 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 2nd placed Milan, recorded a 1-0 shutout win against Atlético Madrid. Junior Messias struck first for Milan in the 87th minute on a feed from Franck Kessié, and with that single goal the scoring was complete. Neither team could manage anything else In the end, Atlético Madrid was frustrated by Milan’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Milan ended the match with the shutout victory. Milan should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 20 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season Milan won the head to head battle with 1 win.
Milan’s most prolific scorer has been Zlatan Ibrahimović. He has netted 3 goals over the last five matches. Genoa’s most prolific scorer has been Domenico Criscito. He has netted 2 goals over the last five matches.
