The home team took the lead at the end of the first half, and doubled their advantage in the 77th minute of the game. Although the visiting team was a better rival by all statistical parameters, they failed to win a positive result in this duel.
They are still in the relegation zone with 27 points, three less than the seventeenth-placed Verona and a place that ensures their survival for the next season in the most robust Italian competition. In the last eight games, they have no recorded victories, with three draws and five defeats.

As for the injured players, Emil Holm, Jacopo Sala, Joao Moutinho, and Daniel Maldini are out of the protocol for the next game due to injuries, while Kevin Agudelo is suspended. All other players will be at the disposal of coach Leonardo Semplizio.
Eldor Shomurodov started the previous three games as a starter in the attack, however, the first striker M’Bala Nzola has recovered from his injury and is expected to start the match in this game from the first minute on the field. Daniele Verde should play on the wing, as well as Emmanuel Gyasi. But we have to see.

The first goal was scored by Ismael Bennacer, assisted by Olivier Giroud, and the second by Theo Hernandez when he was played by goalkeeper Mike Maignan.
After that game, they met their city rival Inter in the semi-finals of the Champions League, but were defeated 0:2. They conceded two quick goals by the 11th minute, and the game ended with that result. The return match is scheduled for Tuesday at 9 p.m.
In Serie A, they currently occupy the fifth position in the table with 61 points won, and they are separated by two points from the fourth-placed Inter and the place that leads to the most elite European competition. In the last ten games in all competitions, they registered four wins, five draws, and only one loss.

All other players will be at the disposal of coach Stefano Pioli.
Several rotations are expected in the AC Milan team due to the Champions League match already on Tuesday, and the starting line-up should include reserves Ante Rebic, Divock Origi, and Charles De Ketelaere. But we will see what decision the Italian expert will make.

Spezia vs AC Milan Prediction
At the moment, the guests are in better shape, they are ranked better in the table and have a better score among themselves. Therefore, we believe that he will use this momentum to his advantage, but there may still be a rotation in the starting line-up due to the next match against Inter in the semi-finals of the Champions League. Therefore, our opinion is that the match will end with a win for AC Milan or a draw. In addition, we believe that there will be less than 3.5 goals in the match because we expect a more closed game.
