Hellas Verona vs AC Milan Match Preview

Match Context

Hellas Verona host AC Milan at Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi in Verona on 19 April 2026 (kick-off 13:00 UTC) in Serie A, Regular Season - 33. Verona come in 19th with 18 points and a goal difference of -32, fighting relegation. Milan sit 3rd on 63 points with a +20 goal difference, targeting Champions League qualification.

Hellas Verona Availability

Hellas Verona face several midfield and defensive concerns. S. Serdar (Knee Injury) is sidelined. A. Bella-Kotchap (Thigh Injury) is doubtful. S. Lovrić (Muscle Injury) is doubtful. These absences and doubts, especially in central areas, could further destabilise a side that has conceded 55 goals in 32 matches and struggles to control games.

AC Milan Availability

There are no listed injuries or suspensions for AC Milan in the provided data. Crucially, their leading attacking threats remain available: Rafael Leão (9 league goals, 2 assists) and C. Pulišić (8 goals, 3 assists). Top creator A. Rabiot (4 assists, 5 goals) is also available despite his card record.

Impact Summary

Verona’s losses are more about structure than star power, weakening their defensive solidity and midfield balance. Milan, by contrast, arrive close to full strength, retaining virtually all of their attacking output, with Leão, Pulišić and Rabiot combining for 22 league goals and 9 assists, a major advantage against a porous Verona defence.
