In eight of the last nine encounters between these sides, both teams have found the back of the net. Milan have impressively scored two or more goals in 14 of their last 15 away fixtures. Similarly, both teams have scored in eight of Milan’s last nine away matches.
Milan face a crucial away match Following a narrow 1-0 defeat at the San Siro last week, AC Milan are under significant pressure heading into Thursday’s second leg against Roma. The Rossoneri need to push forward to overturn the deficit, relying on their strong scoring form away from home to secure a spot in the semi-finals.
Milan have consistently scored at least twice in their recent away games, except for a 1-0 victory over Lazio at this very stadium. Although they had previously enjoyed victories both home and away against Roma, last Thursday marked their first loss to Danielle De Rossi’s in-form Giallorossi team.
Roma, on the other hand, have secured three wins in their last four matches, propelling them into the Champions League positions in Serie A and advancing them to the last eight of the Europa League. With the advantage from the first leg, Roma can afford to play more defensively, ready to exploit Milan’s necessity to attack.
This setup introduces an intriguing dynamic to the match, hinting at a high-scoring affair. Given that the previous fixture was the only recent meeting not to feature goals from both sides, it would be sensible to expect plenty of action and goals in this return leg.
