Milan strengthened a lot during the transfer session that just ended, but Stefano Pioli still has to find the best tactical structure for his Milan, Hellas Verona is a fairly tough opponent, they score little but concede few goals, Milan will have to try in every way to undermine their defense and immediately look for victory to forget the bad defeat against Inter in the last derby.
Verona is a weak team and their strength is from their defense and counter attacking. They won against AS Roma with counter attacking too and at San Siro, they will continue to apply that tactics which is very suited with player resource they currently have. AC Milan and Pioli have yet found their best tactics for this season but soon they will have it. In the match in Champions League with Newcastle United, AC Milan played very well that can be a foundation for them to improve more and take three points from Verona.
I don't think it will be that easy, mate, because Verona is not facing a team with a different quality, so Verona has to consider more that their opponent this time is a better team than AS Roma, so the pressure and hard work must be there from the start of the match if Verona wants better results at San Siro. But I'm not sure that Verona will be able to win there because AC Milan is also aiming for victory at home in order to stay close to its true rival who is at the top of the Serie A standings now.
Verona won over AS Roma in early of season when Roma were not actually ready but they won it at their home stadium. This time, the opponent is stronger, AC Milan and the match will no longer be hosted at Verona home stadium but at San Siro, the home stadium of AC Milan.
AC Milan also need to have a win to improve their ranking and with advantage from a home stadium, AC Milan will not let Verona leaving San Siro with either one or three points. Their task in the match is nothing less than three points from Verona.
