The 2024-25 edition of Serie A is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Lazio take on an impressive AC Milan side in an important encounter at the San Siro on Sunday. Both teams have good players in their ranks and will want to win this game.
AC Milan vs Lazio Preview
Lazio are in fifth place in the Serie A standings and have stepped up to the plate this season. The away side slumped to a 2-0 defeat against Inter Milan in the Coppa Italia this week and will need to work hard to bounce back in this fixture.
AC Milan, on the other hand, are in eighth place in the league table and have been inconsistent this season. The Rossoneri suffered a shock 2-1 defeat at the hands of Bologna in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.
