Lazio vs AC Milan: Preview, kick-off time and where to watch on TV and online – Serie A 2024/25 

Serie A Matchday 3 sees a corker take place with AC Milan travelling to the Stadio Olimpico to face Lazio with both sides looking for an improvement from last weekend.

After winning their first game of the season against Venezia, the Biancocelesti faced a more difficult task against Udinese on Matchday 2 - which they lost. Some had predicted that Marco Baroni's side were in for a difficult season and failing to compete with a rival like Milan would be a worrying indicator.

Milan enter the fixture in a similar position, even if predictions about their season were more positive. Paulo Fonseca is already being doubted by some after his side picked up a singular point from their opening two fixtures, so change is needed quickly.

Lazio vs AC Milan: Predicted line-ups

Baroni should be able to call on Nuno Tavares, Gaetano Castrovilli, and Gustav Isaksen - the trio are set to return to the starting lineup. However, Loum Tchaouna and Tom Dele-Bashiru are offering competition for the latter duo's places.

An old problem has reappeared for the Rossoneri, and Fonseca will have his decisions made for him in defence due to Malick Thiaw's new injury - Strahinja Pavlovic should retain his place in the starting XI alongside Fikayo Tomori.

In midfield, Youssouf Fofana is trying to earn a place among the starters, but there are some doubts about his physical condition. Should he not be able to start the fixture, Yunus Musah is the favoured option.

Lazio predicted XI vs AC Milan (4-3-3): Provedel; Lazzari, Patric, Romagnoli, Tavares; Guendouzi, Rovella, Castrovilli; Isaksen, Castellanos, Zaccagni.

AC Milan predicted XI vs Lazio (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Tomori, Pavlovic, Theo; Musah, Reijnders; Pulisic, Loftus-Cheek, Leao; Okafor.
