Salernitana vs AC Milan Prediction and Betting Tips | January 4, 2023

Salernitana will entertain reigning champions AC Milan at the Stadio Arechi on Wednesday (January 4), resuming their Serie A following a seven-week hiatus.

The hosts are winless in three games, losing the last two. Salernita suffered a 3-0 defeat at Monza in their previous outing, with substitute Antonio Candreva getting sent off after drawing two yellows in 14 minutes.

Milan, meanwhile, are unbeaten in three games. Rafael Leao scored an early goal in their home game against Fiorentina last time around. That was cancelled out by Antonin Barak in the 28th minute before Nikola Milenkovic's late own goal helped the Rossoneri secure all three points.

Stefano Pioli's men, meanwhile, are winless in their last two away games and might struggle here. Four of their six meetings with Salernitana have produced over 2.5 goals, so the trend could continue.

As the two teams will play competitively for the first time in nearly two months, they might be a bit rusty, so a high-scoring draw could ensue.
