Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
AC Milan, 3rd position with 39 points and a positive goal difference of +15
AS Roma, 9th position with 29 points and a positive goal difference of +10
AC Milan survived the pressure and won the Serie A Week 20 game on Sunday 14 January 2024 at San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy. Roma failed big time to grab this victory to climb the Standing towards the European zone. Milan are at 42 in the standings, nine points behind leaders Inter but nine points behind fifth-placed Lazio. AC Milan’s place in the Champions League now seems consolidated with some hidden hope of taking advantage of any collapses of the front two and dreaming big. Roma instead wasted a chance to get closer to fourth place, slipping five points behind Fiorentina. Week to forget for Mourinho’s men, eliminated in the Italian Cup by Lazio and clearly defeated this evening.
From December onwards the Rossoneri got back on track losing, curiously, only two matches in all competitions and both against Gasperini’s team. However, a different story for Roma who in the last seven away games have only won the one against Sassuolo on 3 December, then losing the last three in a row without ever scoring a goal. For the Giallorossi, tonight could be a sort of last resort to stay in the fight for fourth place which is worth access to the new Champions League.
AC Milan opened the score in the 11th minute. Yacine Adli defeated AS Roma goalkeeper with a left footed shot to the bottom right corner. The assist is by Tijjani Reijnders.

✅ Stats before the game: Since 27 October 2019 (2-1 in Rome with goals from Edin Dzeko, Nicolò Zaniolo and Théo Hernández) Roma have not found a victory against Milan in Serie A: since then in eight championship matches five Rossoneri wins and three draws. Milan have remained unbeaten in their last five Serie A home games against Roma: three wins and two draws (including the 2-2 draw last season); the Giallorossi’s last success at the Meazza against the Devil dates back to the 0-2 on 1 October 2017 (goals by Edin Dzeko and Alessandro Florenzi, Eusebio Di Francesco and Vincenzo Montella the coaches).
