Our Fiorentina vs AC Milan Predictions and Tips
If you are looking for reliable Serie A predictions, including top picks for AC Milan vs Fiorentina, you've come to the right place:
Contents
Over 2.5 Total Goals
Neither Fiorentina nor Milan are in great form right now and it's tough to see who could emerge victorious in this match. With that in mind, we decided to focus on goals and our first Fiorentina vs AC Milan prediction is for the game to go over 2.5 total goals.
After all, three of the last five h2h duels between Fiorentina and Milan have gone over 2.5 total goals. Also, AC Milan averaged 2.96 goals per game in Serie A this season, while Fiorentina averaged 2.38 goals per game.
Olivier Giroud to Score at Any Time
Not only do we expect to see three or more goals in this game, but we expect some of them to be scored by the guests and with their top scorer this season Rafael Leao out of the game, our second Fiorentina vs AC Milan prediction is for Olivier Giroud to score at any time.
While Leao is the team's top scorer in Serie A, he scored eight goals and Giroud is right behind him with seven goals scored in the league this season. So, it's safe to assume that with Leao out, Giroud will take the brunt of the team's offensive responsibilities.

Fiorentina – AC Milan Preview: Recent Form, News, and Probable Lineups
This is one of the more interesting matchups in the round, so let's take a closer look at the teams before they meet and check our predicted Fiorentina vs AC Milan lineups.
Fiorentina
With a win over Hellas Verona in the last round, Fiorentina managed to break their streak of five games without a win in Serie A. Overall, the team has 28 points from 24 matches and that puts them near the middle of the standings – seven points from the spot that would take them to Europe next season and eleven points ahead of the relegation zone.
When it comes to team news, Aleksa Terzic is out with an injury, but the rest of the team is in good shape ahead of this match.
Fiorentina Predicted Lineup:
Terracciano – Dodo, Milenkovic, Igor, Biraghi – Bonaventura, Amrabat, Mandragora – Gonzalez, Cabral, Saponara
AC Milan
After five games without a win in Serie A and three losses in a row, AC Milan is now seemingly back in good form as they managed to win their last three games in the league, on top of which they also got a win over Tottenham in Champions League. So, things are looking well for them right now, but they need to keep the good run going if they want to secure a Top 4 finish in Serie A this season.
Meanwhile, the team is fully fit right now, but they will be without Rade Krunic and Rafael Leao as they have to serve their suspensions.
AC Milan Predicted Lineup:
Maignan – Kalulu, Thiaw, Tomori – Calabria, Tonali, Bennacer, Hernandez – De Ketelaere, Rebic – Giroud

Player to Watch: Olivier Giroud
While there are many players who can stand out in this match and decide it, our choice for a player to watch is Olivier Giroud, the experienced French striker who's having a very good season in Milan.
After all, Giroud scored seven goals and notched four assists in twenty two appearances in Serie A this season, so he is certainly one of the main threats for Fiorentina to focus on in this game.
