AC Milan look to build momentum at San Siro against Venezia
AC Milan return to the San Siro for their second match of the Serie A season, aiming to capitalise on their opening-day victory against Torino. They host a Venezia side still finding their feet in the top flight, with the match scheduled for Friday, 28 August 2026, at 20:45 CET.
After securing a hard-fought 2-1 win at Torino on 23 August, AC Milan will be eager to maintain their momentum in front of their home supporters. The squad appears to be settling into a new rhythm, having shown resilience in their recent pre-season outings against high-calibre European opposition.
With Rafael Leao sidelined due to injury, the focus shifts to how the hosts will structure their attack. The expected XI features a midfield bolstered by the experience of Luka Modric and Adrien Rabiot, who are tasked with controlling the tempo and feeding forwards like Goncalo Ramos.
Venezia arrive in Milan looking to bounce back from a 0-2 defeat to Lecce in their opening fixture. While their league start was difficult, they demonstrated their competitive spirit in a 3-2 Coppa Italia victory over Modena earlier in August. Tactical discipline will be vital for the visitors, especially given their tendency to strike late; in their recent run, they have proven particularly dangerous in the final quarter-hour of matches.
Recent history heavily favours the home side, with AC Milan maintaining a perfect record in their last four Serie A encounters against Venezia. This includes a commanding 4-0 win at the San Siro in September 2024 and a 2-0 victory in their most recent meeting in April 2025. Venezia will be looking to break this trend and secure a statement result on the road.
For the hosts, the expected XI includes Mike Maignan in goal, supported by a defensive unit featuring Strahinja Pavlovic and Pervis Estupinan. Venezia are expected to counter with a front line of John Yeboah and Akor Adams, supported by a midfield trio of Gianluca Busio, Toma Basic, and Kike Perez. Both managers will be looking for their respective squads to impose their tactical identity early in the tie.
