Sun Apr 27 11:30:00 UTC 2025: ## Milan Eye Serie A Win After Coppa Italia Triumph

**Venice, Italy** – AC Milan, riding high after a resounding Coppa Italia semi-final victory over Inter Milan, look to carry their momentum into Serie A this Sunday as they face a struggling Venezia side at the Stadio Penzo.

Milan secured their place in the Coppa Italia final with a convincing 3-0 win over their city rivals, completing a 4-1 aggregate victory. While this win offers a route back to European competition, their Serie A campaign has been inconsistent, leaving them ninth in the table and five points from a Champions League qualifying spot. Manager Sergio Conceicao’s future at the club remains uncertain, with reports suggesting his contract may not be renewed.

Venezia, meanwhile, are battling to avoid relegation. After a dismal start to the season, they’ve shown recent improvement, losing only one of their last eight matches. However, they remain precariously close to the relegation zone, having squandered numerous leads throughout the season. Their recent draw against Empoli highlights their inconsistency, and they face a formidable opponent in Milan, having lost their last four meetings against them.

Despite Venezia’s improved form and strong motivation to avoid relegation, Milan are favourites. A shift to a 3-4-3 formation has unlocked the attacking potential of key players like Rafael Leao and Theo Hernandez. The psychological boost of reaching the Coppa Italia final further enhances their prospects. However, Milan will have to contend with several injuries and absences in their squad.

Venezia will also be missing key players due to injuries and suspensions. The match promises a fascinating clash between a team brimming with confidence after a major cup victory and another fighting desperately for survival.
