Genoa vs AC Milan Match Preview: Serie A Clash

Genoa host AC Milan at Stadio Luigi Ferraris, Genoa, on 17 May 2026 in Serie A Regular Season - 37. Genoa come in 14th on 41 points with a goal difference of -8, while AC Milan sit 4th on 67 points with a goal difference of 18 and a place in the Champions League league phase already secured.

Genoa Availability

Genoa face several concerns.

  • Junior Messias (Muscle Injury) is sidelined.
  • T. Baldanzi (Thigh Injury) is doubtful.
  • M. Cornet (Inactive) is doubtful.
  • B. Norton-Cuffy (Thigh Injury) is doubtful.
  • S. Otoa (Inactive) is doubtful.

None of Genoa’s confirmed absentees appear among the league’s top scorers or assist providers, so their core attacking production remains intact, with creator Aarón Martín (5 assists) available to start.

AC Milan Availability

AC Milan have a heavier list of key losses.

  • P. Estupinan (Yellow Cards) is sidelined.
  • R. Leao (Yellow Cards) is sidelined.
  • L. Modric (Broken cheekbone) is sidelined.
  • A. Saelemaekers (Yellow Cards) is sidelined.
  • C. Pulisic (Muscle Injury) is doubtful.

Rafael Leão (9 goals, 3 assists) is a major blow to Milan’s attacking threat, while Christian Pulisic (8 goals, 3 assists) being doubtful further clouds their cutting edge in the final third.

Impact Summary

Genoa lose depth and some flexibility but retain their main creative outlet. Milan, however, risk lining up without their two most productive forwards, significantly reducing their goal and chance creation potential for this fixture.
