Roma will host AC Milan at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday night in one of the most anticipated fixtures of Serie A’s 22nd round, with both sides firmly in the title race.
The Italian capital is set for a fiery encounter as kick-off is scheduled for 9:45 PM local time, with the outcome expected to have a major impact on the top end of the league table.
Roma head into the clash sitting fourth with 42 points, just one behind third-placed Napoli.
Milan, meanwhile, occupy second place with 46 points, trailing league leaders Inter by six.
The Giallorossi arrive in strong form, having won their last three Serie A matches in a row.
Those victories have revived Roma’s slim hopes of mounting a late title challenge, especially after a shaky start to 2026. Impressively, the capital club kept clean sheets in all three wins, a defensive resurgence that boosts confidence ahead of facing the Rossoneri.
AC Milan, on the other hand, are determined to silence the Olimpico crowd and extend their winning run.
Stefano Pioli’s side collected six points from their last two league outings against Como and Lecce and are showing signs of real momentum.
Since the second round of the season, Milan have gone 20 consecutive Serie A matches without defeat, a remarkable run bettered only by Bayern Munich among Europe’s top five leagues.
Both Roma and Milan enter Sunday’s showdown with the same objective: securing all three points to keep the pressure on Inter at the top of the table, setting the stage for a thrilling night of Italian football.
