Milan welcomes Genoa to the San Siro in the hope of winning and qualifying for the quarterfinals of the Italian Cup. One interesting fact about this duel, Milan has played in the quarterfinals all the last 13 times, while Genoa never managed to qualify for the quarterfinals !!! Genoa is coming after another very poor performance at their Luigi Ferraris stadium, they lost to Spezia 1-0. Although Genoa has conceded more than 1 goal in a game in the last 5 games only once, it is mainly because their rivals were very unlucky. Spezia could have scored many more goals and Genoa's defence once again played very poorly. Coach Shevchenko has been brought in to improve the team's game, but his arrival has not changed anything and Genoa is still playing very poorly (maybe he will not be on the bench tonight due to Covid-19).

According to Italian newspapers, Milan will appear today in a very strong line-up with Rebic, Giroud and Theo Hernandez. Coach Pioli cannot count on Ibrahimovic, Kessie but Tonali and Giroud should replace them without any problems. Milan beat Genoa 3-0 away in early December so I expect a similar result in Milan. Milan is in great goal-scoring form, they have scored 10 goals in their last 3 games, which means they could continue the series against poor Genoa. Milan is playing very well this season, they are scoring a lot of goals and I think that everything but a victory with two or more goals difference today would be a big surprise. Genoa will certainly defend all 90 minutes and try to threaten the rival from the counter, but I think that this team simply does not have the quality to play against the best teams in Serie A.

My prediction;

Outcome: Milan to win -1.5

Goals: Over 2.5

米兰欢迎热那亚来到圣西罗，希望能够赢得意大利杯的四分之一决赛。关于这场决斗，一个有趣的事实是，米兰在过去的13次比赛中都参加了四分之一决赛，而热那亚从来没有进入过四分之一决赛!!热那亚在路易吉法拉利球场的表现非常糟糕，他们1-0输给了斯佩齐亚。虽然热那亚在最近的5场比赛中只有一次在一场比赛中失球超过1个，但这主要是因为他们的对手非常不幸。斯佩齐亚本可以进更多的球，热那亚的防守再次表现得很差。热那亚主教练舍甫琴科的到来是为了改善球队的比赛，但他的到来并没有改变任何事情，热那亚踢得仍然很糟糕(也许他今晚不会坐在替补席上，因为Covid-19)。

根据意大利报纸的报道，米兰将会在今天的阵容中出现雷比奇，吉鲁和埃尔南德斯。教练皮奥利不能指望伊布拉希莫维奇，凯斯，但是托纳利和吉鲁应该可以取代他们，没有任何问题。米兰在12月初客场3-0击败热那亚，所以我希望在米兰也能有类似的结果。米兰的进球状态很好，他们在最近的3场比赛中已经进了10个球，这意味着他们可以继续与可怜的热那亚的系列赛。米兰这个赛季踢得很好，他们进了很多球，我认为除了两个或两个以上的进球差之外，今天的一切都将是一个很大的惊喜。热那亚肯定会在90分钟内防守，并试图从反击中威胁对手，但我认为这支球队根本没有能力对抗意甲最好的球队。

我的预测：AC米兰大胜
