AC Milan won 4-2 at Empoli in the last round before the Christmas break and stayed within relative reach of first place (4 points behind). In any case, the calendar year 2021 was a successful one for the Rossoneri, as they won a total of 27 league matches and only achieved a better feat (28) in 1950. However, in their last three home league appearances, coach Pioli's players have lost and have a lot of things to make up for. The trio of Ibrahimovic, Leao and Rebic have returned to the team after the holidays, which should ensure a supply of goals. It's not certain which of them will start from the start, but they should be on the pitch for at least some part of the game.
AS Roma had gained seven points in the previous three rounds to return to the cup standings. While the last home draw with Sampdoria (1-1) was disappointing, the previous away performance at Atalanta (4-1) gave coach Mourinho's critics few opportunities to speak up. There should also be no shortage of goals in this fixture, and perhaps there won't be a long wait for them, as Milan's openers have been legendary this season. Indeed, 13 goals have already fallen in the first 15 minutes of their league matches (7:6).
H2H:
Roma 1:2 Milan
Roma 1:2 Milan
Milan 3:3 Roma
Milan 2:0 Roma
Roma 2:1 Milan
My prediction: Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.66 (bet365)
