AC MIlan start the weekend in fourth place in Serie A and that would take them into the Champions League. Whether they are allowed to play is another matter after again falling foul of fair-play rules. Back on the pitch they are struggling to keep that position and are only ahead of Atalanta on goal difference and a point clear of Roma. They host seventh-placed Lazio who are two points behind Roma and in danger of missing out on European competition but a win here could take them above their opponents. Milan have only one point from their last four league games and last weekend took the lead at Juventus only to lose to a goal six minutes from time. Before that they were held to a 1-1 home draw by Udinese again losing a lead. Home form has seen them win nine league games, a figure only bettered by Juventus and Napoli.

Lazio are also struggling with only one point from their last two games. They lost away to SPAL who are only just above the relegation zone and then drew 2-2 at home with Sassuolo. They led that game 1-0 but in the end needed a 95th minute goal to rescue a point. Lazio have won six away league games this season but also lost six and their games only average two goals a match. Four of their last five away league matches have had under 2.5 goals scored in them and that's the tip for this game.
