- Competition: UEFA Europa League - Matchday 4
- Date: Tuesday, 5th, November 2026
- Kickoff: 17:45 UK / 18:45 CET
- Venue: San Siro (Milano)
The iconic San Siro sets the stage this Thursday for a clash between two sides experiencing completely contrasting European fortunes, with AC Milan desperately hunting for redemption after a sluggish start to their Europa League campaign, while Ferencvaros arrive in Italy as one of the tournament's most refreshing surprise packages after the opening three rounds.
This first-ever official competitive encounter between the two clubs brings forward a clear contrast between historical prestige and present-day momentum, given that the Rossoneri possess an undeniably grander European pedigree and superior individual class, but the visitors are currently playing the football of their lives.
AC Milan team overview
The outfit managed by Ruben Amorim head into this continental examination carrying a bitter European aftertaste, considering that—following an opening-day 2-0 defeat to Benfica and a resounding 4-0 destruction of RB Salzburg—they suffered a heavy 3-0 reality check against Bournemouth, leaving them stranded on a modest three points in the Europa League.
Nevertheless, the Rossoneri are enjoying a genuine renaissance in Serie A, having succumbed to just a single defeat in their opening ten outings, and a triumphant 3-1 victory in the Derby della Madonnina over arch-rivals Inter Milan has injected a vital dose of self-belief that they must now translate onto the international stage.
Amorim's tactical preparation has been drastically crippled by a crowded treatment room and the suspension of first-choice shot-stopper Mike Maignan, which forces the young Lorenzo Torriani between the sticks, while injuries have definitively ruled out a lengthy list of mainstays including Gabbia, Tomori, Loftus-Cheek, Saelemaekers, Chukwueze, and Adrien Rabiot.
Despite being heavily depleted in a defensive unit where the entire burden will now fall upon Pavlovic, Estupinan, De Winter, and Gila, the hosts simply have no room for excuses at the San Siro and must prove that their pivotal derby triumph over Inter was a true declaration of their character for the big stage.

Ferencvaros team overview
While AC Milan are trembling under immense European pressure, Ferencvaros march onto the legendary San Siro turf in an absolutely championship frame of mind, proudly boasting a maximum return of nine points in the Europa League following the impressive scalps of Celtic (3-1), Viktoria Plzen (2-1), and Torreense (4-1).
Even more remarkably, Balazs Borbely’s men find themselves in fearsome form and have forgotten the bitter taste of defeat across their last 20 matches in all competitions, a spectacular run highlighted by the fact that they emerged victorious by at least a two-goal margin in their last four outings, serving as a chilling warning to the Italian giants.
The Hungarian heavyweights will also be heavily buoyed by remaining un-decapitated for nearly three months in any format, registering seven victories and three stalemates during that period, although the Green-Whites do not hold fond memories of their only previous excursion to the San Siro, having been hammered 4-0 by Inter Milan in the 1965-66 European Cup quarter-finals.
In stark contrast to their decimated Italian hosts, FTC have no fresh personnel worries to report and are fully equipped to prove that their extraordinary European streak is by no means a product of fluke or a kind schedule, but rather a reflection of genuine quality capable of great deeds.

Prediction
This spectacular European showdown at the San Siro brings forth a classic tactical collision between historical stature and current momentum, where a shaken Italian giant is forced to react after two continental setbacks, while Ferencváros arrive backed by a flawless record and a terrifying 20-match unbeaten streak.
There is no doubt that the Rossoneri will seize the initiative from the very first whistle and look to heavily weaponize the red-hot Christian Pulisic in isolated one-on-one scenarios, whereas the Hungarian champions will patiently plot their openings through lightning-fast transitions spearheaded by the lethal Yusuf-Zachariassen tandem to exploit the hosts' makeshift rearguard.
Although Amorim's side possesses an undeniably higher level of individual quality across most areas of the pitch, the absence of vital defensive anchors and their starting goalkeeper guarantees that this will be anything but a straightforward task against a side arriving in Milan completely devoid of fear.
The ultimate key to success for the Red-Blacks will lie in maintaining absolute tactical concentration for the entire 90 minutes, as the visitors have already demonstrated a ruthless offensive edge capable of instantly punishing the slightest defensive complacency from their opponents.
Ultimately, the unique magic of the San Siro and the heavy psychological wind in their sails generated from the Milan derby triumph should tip the scales in favor of the hosts, though it is unlikely to be a blowout victory, as we fully expect Ferencváros to cause immense trouble and find the back of the net at least once.
Four Reasons we expect BTTS - Yes
- AC Milan have managed to record a clean sheet just once throughout their previous five appearances across all competitions.

- Throughout their last four fixtures across all fronts, Ferencváros have hammered home an incredible tally of 15 goals.
