AC Milan host Monza on Saturday, 24 May 2025, in what promises to be a crucial Serie A showdown at the iconic San Siro. Kick‐off is set for 20:45 CEST across Italy, Germany, France and Spain, while fans in the UK can tune in at 19:45 BST. This fixture not only carries significance for AC Milan’s hopes of climbing the table but also represents Monza’s last realistic opportunity to spark a survival bid.
With both clubs desperate for points at opposite ends of the standings, expect a highly competitive atmosphere under the lights. AC Milan will look to leverage their formidable home record, whereas Monza must overcome a lengthy away drought if they are to leave Milan with any reward.
How are both teams coming into this?
AC Milan arrive in decent form but have shown inconsistency in recent weeks. Sitting 8th with 60 points, the Rossoneri have recorded 17 wins, 9 draws and 10 defeats this season. Their home form has been a major positive, boasting just three losses at San Siro. However, defensive lapses remain a concern after conceding four times in their last two matches.
Monza, by contrast, are rooted to the bottom with only 18 points from 36 games. Their away record reads just two wins and four draws on the road, highlighting severe struggles in front of goals. The Biancorossi have managed a solitary win in their last ten fixtures and will need to defy the odds if they are to haul themselves out of the relegation zone.
Our forecast
We predict an AC Milan victory, given the gulf in quality and the hosts’ strong home record. Milan’s attack should dominate possession and create the bulk of the chances, with Monza expected to sit deep and frustrate.
In addition, the match is likely to be low‐scoring. We back Under 2.5 goals and ‘Both Teams to Score: No’, as Monza’s away troubles persist and Milan’s defence should manage the visitors’ limited threat.
