Milan is welcoming Venezia to San Siro in round 5 in the Italian Serie A. Milan is undefeated in Serie A with 3 wins and a draw so far this season, but they couldn’t beat Liverpool in the Champions League. Venezia is playing like most of the newcomers would, and they have won only 1 of their last 5 games.

Milan is in 3rd place with 10 points, and they are now only 3 points behind Inter who have 1 game more played. Milan has been impressive on both ends so far with 8 scored goals and only 2 conceded goals. Giroud and Leao have each scored 2 goals for Milan so far, while Rebic has 1 goal and 2 assists. Krunic, Bakayoko, and Kjaer are all injured, but some of them might be ready for this game. In their last game against Juventus, Milan was the better team with 56% of ball possession, 3 shots on goal, 4 corner kicks, 2 big chances created, and a high 90% of the correct passes. Milan conceded first, but they tied the score in the second half. The final score of this match was 1-1. The next two Serie A games should be on the lighter side for Milan, but their Champions League game next week will be a tough one, and for that reason, Milan must keep their form high.

Venezia has 1 win and 3 losses so far this season, they have scored only 3 goals while conceding 8 goals in 4 games, which is an average of 2 conceded goals per game. Henry, Okereke, and Ceccaroni have each scored 1 goal for Venezia so far this season. Busio has added 2 assists. There are a few important injuries for Venezia at the moment, and that will certainly affect their game. Venezia was playing against Spezia in their last game, and they were decent with 45% of ball possession, 3 shots on goal, 3 corner kicks, 7 shots inside the box, and 78% of the correct passes. Venezia was unlucky in this game, and despite all the shots, Venezia has scored only 1 goal, and that wasn’t enough for a positive result. Venezia has lost this game 1-2. Venezia is the best in Serie A in one thing, and that is the design of their jerseys, but in everything else, they are as far as possible. Venezia has a tough season ahead, and we will see in a few months if they can stay in Serie A.

Venezia has beaten Milan only once, and that was over 20 years ago. Milan is on fire, they are scoring a ton of goals, and they need to keep winning to keep their form good. I’m taking Milan at home.
