AC Milan

AC Milan were founded in 1899 and play their home games at Stadio San Siro in Italy.

AC Milan remain one of the more substantial names in the Italian game, founded in 1899 and still housed at the Stadio San Siro. Their squad is valued at around £475.5m by Transfermarkt, with 37 players and an average age of 24 – a large, young group by elite-level standards.

In the 2026-27 season they sit fifth in Serie A, with Coppa Italia involvement having reached the third round and Europa League football listed at league-phase level. Their recent league run has been steady rather than flawless: a 3-0 home win over Lecce followed draws away to Lazio and Juventus, with earlier wins against Venezia and Torino offset by a 1-2 home defeat to Cagliari.

Their home numbers are the sharpest part of the profile. Milan are averaging 2.5 goals scored per match at the San Siro and have conceded 0, which gives them both a strong home attack and a tight defensive base. Away from home they still carry a threat, averaging 1.7 goals scored, though the 1.3 conceded per match points to a less controlled side on the road.

Diego Moreira leads their scoring with three goals, followed by Alphadjo Cissè and Adrien Rabiot on two. Gonçalo Ramos and Christian Pulišić have also contributed. For Celtic supporters, the current picture is of a high-value Milan squad, young in profile, sitting in the upper reaches of Serie A and strongest when allowed to build from home advantage.

⚔️ How they compare to Celtic

Compared with Celtic, who sit top of the table, AC Milan present a different set of threats: Celtic hold the advantage in league position and points, while Milan offer one of the league's best attacking units and a very robust defensive record, especially at home; for Celtic the key challenge will be breaking down Milan's compact defence without allowing the second-half scoring tendency to be exploited.

AC Milan have better recent form than Celtic, who have three wins and three losses in their last six games.

Recent results are mixed but trending upward after a continental setback: a 0-2 loss to Benfica was followed by a 3-0 domestic response against Lecce and back-to-back league wins earlier, showing the side can reset quickly; the pair of draws away to Lazio and Juventus underline resilience on the road but also a tendency to share points rather than dominate stronger opponents.

📈 League position analysis

After 5 games, AC Milan are placed fifth in the league.

AC Milan's league placing has been volatile early on — they have oscillated between first and fifth in recent rounds and now sit fifth after five rounds — which suggests the team can hit high peaks but has not yet sustained that level across a sequence of fixtures.

AC Milan, with three wins, two draws and one loss, have worse away form in Italy's Serie A, compared with how Celtic are faring in the Scottish Premiership. Celtic have six wins in their last six away games in the league.

The home/away split paints two different pictures: at home AC Milan are a force, scoring freely and conceding the joint-best defensive return, while away they are more conservative, scoring less and allowing more; that home strength has delivered the club's clearest victories, but away matches have produced draws and tighter margins.

💪 Strengths and weaknesses

How well-rounded are AC Milan across key performance areas this season?

AC Milan
Celtic

Compared with Celtic, who sit top of the table, AC Milan present a different set of threats: Celtic hold the advantage in league position and points, while Milan offer one of the league's best attacking units and a very robust defensive record, especially at home; for Celtic the key challenge will be breaking down Milan's compact defence without allowing the second-half scoring tendency to be exploited.

The radar shows a side built on a strong attacking base and a compact defence at home: Milan are most effective in creating and finishing chances on their own turf and in keeping clean sheets there, while their weaker edge is away productivity and occasional defensive lapses in late stages and the opening ten minutes of matches.

⚽ Average statistics

Check out these per game stats for AC Milan in their domestic league season 2026 - 2027. AC Milan play in Italy's Serie A, which is a top five European league, so we will apply a weighting to goal stats for comparison to Celtic, who play in the less competitive Scottish Premiership.

Offensively AC Milan rank as the league's second most potent side behind Roma, which means they pose a consistent threat to opponents and can impose the game, particularly at San Siro; defensively they are also among the best, conceding far fewer than sides like Atalanta and considerably more solidity than Bologna, so they combine a high ceiling in attack with an unusually compact defensive base for a top-five team.

Discipline is notably context-dependent: AC Milan pick up far more yellow cards away from home than at San Siro, which suggests their away approach is edgier and invites more refereeing intervention despite no red cards recorded.

Their biggest wins — a 3-0 home victory and a 2-1 away success — signal a clear ceiling in domestic matches where they can both control and finish games, with the three-goal home result especially highlighting how decisively they can win when the attack clicks.

Unusually, Milan win more corners on the road than at home, indicating an away pattern of sustained pressure in opponent boxes even if that pressure does not always translate into higher scoring; their corner conceding rate stays broadly similar home and away.

Goals are currently shared rather than concentrated: Diego Moreira leads with three across all competitions while a clutch of players such as Alphadjo Cissè and Adrien Rabiot chip in, so Milan rely on a spread of contributors rather than a single prolific scorer.

AC Milan are more likely to open the scoring in the second half — particularly between the sixty and seventy-minute mark — whereas their concessions cluster at the very start and in the final twenty minutes, which points to strong in-game turning points but vulnerability to early pressure and late lapses.

Thirty-seven players used already suggests heavy rotation and squad-wide involvement early in the campaign, but minutes and goals are concentrated: a small core of starters such as the most-used goalkeeper anchors the side while the team's nine league goals point to a modest collective output that relies on multiple contributors rather than a single standout scorer.
