AC Milan vs AS Roma Preview

The Stadio Giuseppe Meazza prepares to host one of Italian football’s most captivating rivalries as AC Milan welcome AS Roma on 2nd November 2025, with kick-off scheduled for 19:45 GMT. This Serie A encounter arrives at a crucial juncture for both clubs, each navigating contrasting paths through the early stages of the campaign. Milan have established themselves as one of Serie A’s most difficult sides to defeat, remaining unbeaten in their last five matches with two victories and three draws demonstrating their defensive solidity and growing consistency. The Rossoneri have shown resilience across multiple competitions, grinding out results when attacking fluency has eluded them while maintaining the defensive organization that has become their foundation. Roma, meanwhile, present a more volatile profile, having collected three wins from their last five matches but also suffering two defeats that exposed defensive vulnerabilities and raised questions about their ability to compete consistently against elite opposition.

AC Milan’s recent form reveals a side prioritizing solidity over spectacular football. The Rossoneri have remained unbeaten in their last five fixtures, securing important victories including a 2-1 home win over Fiorentina on October 19th and a 2-1 home triumph against Napoli on September 28th. However, three draws tell the story of a team struggling to convert dominance into maximum points—a 1-1 away tie at Atalanta on October 28th, a 2-2 home draw with Pisa on October 24th, and a goalless away tie at Juventus on October 5th. The pattern suggests Milan possess the defensive discipline to frustrate opponents but lack the cutting edge in the final third to consistently kill games off. With the San Siro fortress behind them and confidence growing from their unbeaten sequence, the Rossoneri will view this fixture as an opportunity to claim three points and demonstrate they possess the quality to challenge for the Scudetto.

AS Roma’s recent record presents a picture of inconsistency that has characterized their campaign. The Giallorossi have won three of their last five matches, including a crucial 2-1 home victory over Parma on October 29th and a 2-1 away triumph at Fiorentina on October 5th. They also claimed a narrow 1-0 away win at Sassuolo on October 26th, demonstrating their ability to grind out results on the road. However, two defeats have punctured their momentum—a 2-1 home loss to Viktoria Plzen in the Europa League on October 23rd and a 1-0 home defeat to Internazionale on October 18th, both at the Stadio Olimpico where they’ve struggled to establish dominance. This pattern of alternating between impressive victories and concerning defeats suggests Roma possess quality but lack the consistency necessary to compete at the highest level. The trip to the San Siro represents their sternest examination yet, requiring a complete performance if they’re to claim a result against an in-form Milan side.

The head-to-head record favors Roma significantly. The Giallorossi have dominated recent encounters, winning three of the last five meetings while Milan claimed one victory and one match ended level. Roma secured an impressive 3-1 home victory in May 2025, delivered a commanding 5-2 home triumph in a Club Friendly in May 2024, and claimed a 2-1 home win in the Europa League in April 2024. Milan’s solitary success came in a 3-1 home victory in the Coppa Italia in February 2025, proving they can defeat Roma when executing their game plan perfectly. The sides also fought out a 1-1 home draw for Milan in December 2024, demonstrating how evenly matched these teams can be. With Roma holding such a strong recent advantage, particularly at the San Siro where they’ve proven capable of claiming maximum points, this fixture represents a chance for Milan to reverse that trend and establish psychological dominance.
