AC Milan vs Napoli Match Preview

AC Milan will be playing against Napoli in round 18 of the Italian Serie A. The game is played at San Siro in Milan and Massa is the referee.

AC Milan are in second place in the standings having collected a total of 39 points. Out of 17 games played by AC Milan this season in the league, nine of them have had over 2.5 goals. From their last five games played, three of them had over 2.5 goals.

AC Milan's very important defender Kjaer got injured recently and he would miss this game and others to come as well. This would make their defense weaker. Leao, Hernandez, and Pellegri are doubtful for this game.

Napoli are three points behind AC Milan and sit in the fourth position. Ten out of the 17 games played in the league by Napoli have ended in over 2.5 goals and from their eight away games, six had over 2.5 goals.

Napoli fancy a very attacking football and they do concede as well. Out of the last seven games played by Napoli, six of them had over 2.5 goals. The only game that had under 2.5 goals was the last game against Empoli where Napoli created a lot of chances but failed to score. Napoli also misses their main defender Koulibaly.

With both sides missing their key defenders in this one, I expect a high-scoring game. The attack of both sides is very strong and my prediction for this game is over 2.5 goals.
