AC Milan are yet to hit the heights they scaled last season but have shown flashes of their brilliance in the Serie A so far. The Rossoneri have an excellent squad at the moment and will rely on the likes of Rafael Leao and Olivier Giroud to step up this weekend.
Hellas Verona have been surprisingly poor this season and are in desperate need of a shot in the arm. AC Milan are the better team at the moment and should be able to win this game.
