7:23pm, 17 October 2025Football

The Rossoneri are strong at home, aiming for three consecutive victories

AC Milan currently ranks third in Serie A with a record of 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, only 2 points away from the top spot. The team has been in hot form recently, remaining unbeaten in the past five games (4 wins and 1 draw), and has won two consecutive games at home. On the offensive end, Pulisic leads the team's scorer list with 4 goals and also contributed 2 assists. He is the absolute core of the team. On the defensive end, AC Milan only conceded 0.5 goals per game, making it the second-fewest team in the league.

Formation prediction: 3-5-2 both offensive and defensive

AC Milan has been adopting a 3-5-2 formation recently. This formation can not only ensure the control of the midfield, but also give full play to the advantages of wing offense. Considering that Florence's defense is relatively weak, AC Milan is likely to continue to use this formation, creating opportunities through midfield suppression and wing breakthroughs.

Predicted starting lineup

Goalkeeper: Mike Maignan

Defenders: Fikayo Tomori, Mateo Gabbia, Strahinja Pavlovich

Midfielder: Alexis Salemakors, Yusef Fofana, Luka · Modric, Davide Bartesaghi, Perves Estupinian

Forwards: Santiago Jimenez, Christian Pulisic

Tactical prediction: midfield control, wing breakthrough

The core of AC Milan's tactics lies in midfield control. Modric (404 passes, 1st in the tournament) and Fofana (9 interceptions, 2nd in the team) will take on the heavy responsibility of organizing offense and intercepting defense. Salle Marcos (18 steals, 5th in the tournament) and Estupinian (10 key passes, 3rd in the team) on the wing will use their speed and breakthrough ability to create opportunities for the forwards. On the forward line, Pulisic (7 shots on target, 7th in the tournament) and Jimenez (16 shots on target, 2nd on the team) will be responsible for ending the attack.

Injury list

AC Milan: Arden Jasari (midfielder) (calf injury) Perves Estupinian (defender) (injured) Alexis Salemakors (forward) (thigh injury) Christian Pulisic (midfielder) (thigh injury) Adrian Rabiot (midfielder) (calf injury)

Result prediction

Based on the strength of both sides and recent status, AC Milan has a higher probability of winning at home. The team is full of firepower on the offensive end and solid on the defensive end, while Fiorentina's away offense is weak (averaging 0.33 goals per game). AC Milan is expected to defeat Fiorentina with a score of 2-0 or 3-1 and continue to chase the top of the standings.
