AC Milan vs Hellas Verona Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Serie A 2025-26

The Rossoneri have won all nine previous meetings with Gialloblù.
AC Milan are all set to lock horns with Hellas Verona in their matchweek 16 fixture of the 2025-26 Serie A. The San Siro Stadium is set to host an entertaining game between these two clubs.
After their exit from the Coppa Italia, the Rossoneri also faced a defeat in the Italian Super Cup semi-final. They now have only a chance to win a single trophy this season, which could be the Italian league competition. The Massimiliano Allegri-led AC Milan have come up with some good performances in the league and are in second place on the points table.
Hellas Verona started their season on a poor note, but have performed really well in their last two fixtures. They first took down Atalanta and then defeated Fiorentina in the Serie A.
The Gialloblù are going to be the visitors, but will be keen to maintain their ongoing winning run. The upcoming game is going to be a tough contest due to their underwhelming performances against Milan.
