Genoa vs AC Milan Match Preview: Key Player Availability

Match Context

Genoa host AC Milan at Stadio Luigi Ferraris in Genoa on 17 May 2026, in Serie A Regular Season - 37. Genoa sit 14th on 41 points, while AC Milan are 4th with 67 points and pushing for Champions League qualification.

Genoa Availability

Genoa have several concerns. Junior Messias (Muscle Injury) is sidelined. T. Baldanzi (Thigh Injury) is doubtful. M. Cornet (Inactive) is doubtful. B. Norton-Cuffy (Thigh Injury) is doubtful. S. Otoa (Inactive) is doubtful. Key creator Aarón Martín, the league’s 17th-ranked assister with 5 assists and 1 goal, is available and expected to shoulder much of the home side’s supply from wide areas.

AC Milan Availability

AC Milan are hit by both injuries and suspensions. P. Estupinan (Yellow Cards) is sidelined. R. Leao (Yellow Cards) is sidelined. L. Modric (Broken cheekbone) is sidelined. A. Saelemaekers (Yellow Cards) is sidelined. C. Pulisic (Muscle Injury) is doubtful.

Impact Summary

Genoa’s absentees mainly affect depth and flexibility, with their primary creative outlet Aarón Martín available. Milan, however, risk losing a combined 17 league goals and 6 assists if both Leao and Pulisic are unavailable, significantly reducing their attacking threat for this high-stakes run-in clash.
