AC Milan vs Benevento
Italy Serie A
Date: Saturday, 1 May 2021
Kick-Off at 19.45 UK
Venue: Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, Milano.
Both Milan and Benevento will be desperate for points when they take on each other in the 34th round of Serie A on Saturday evening at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.
The two teams will fight separate battles in the remaining five games of the season. I Rossoneri have put their top-four finish in jeopardize after losing back-to-back fixtures to Sassuolo and Lazio in the last two rounds. They are now level on points with the likes of Napoli and Juventus as just two of these three teams can make it to UEFA Champions League next season.
The visitors dropped down into the red zone after losing 2-4 to Udinese last time out. They took only one point from the last four Serie A affairs and are now lock on points with the likes of Torino and Cagliari in the battle for avoiding the drop to Serie B football.
Benevento’s defence looked horrible in the last couple of weeks. The team conceded as many as eleven goals in the last three league matches. They shipped two or more goals in four of the last five Serie A outings. It is a dreadful record if we know they’ve played the likes of Parma, Sassuolo, Lazio, Genoa, and Udinese along the way.
Benevento’s defensive catastrophe will be the music to the ears of Zlatan Ibrahimovic who is expected to return to the squad after skipping the last couple of games.
Milan did miss their talisman badly in these outings. We just can’t see how the dreadful defence of Benevento could stop highly-motivated Milan here.
Over 2.5 goals FT is a huge banker at the odds of 1.57, while we will also back the hosts to win by at least two goals difference at the 2.05 odds.
