AC Milan vs Liverpool Analysis
With both sides famed for their European football exploits, this should be a very closely fought contest.
AC Milan
It has been a while since AC Milan truly dined at the top table of European football, but they look set to challenge again in the Champions League this year. They have been demonstrating more consistency in Serie A over the past couple of seasons and they will be hoping to kick on and challenge both domestically and in Europe. However, their opening game is significantly tougher than they would have liked, and they will need to be on guard against Liverpool.
Team news: Alvaro Morata & Alessandro Florenzi are not expected to be involved here for Milan.
AC Milan Predicted Lineup:
Maignan, Royal, Tomori, Pavlovic, Hernandez, Fofana, Reijnders, Loftus-Cheek, Pulisic, Leao & Abraham.
Liverpool
Having enjoyed a fantastic start to the season, Liverpool will be believing that they can go all the way in the Champions League and win the title for a 7th time under Arne Slot. Being absent from the competition last season will certainly whet the appetite and they will firmly believe that they can mount a decent challenge for both punters and Champions League betting sites. This is a very tough opening game though and the reds will need to be on it from the off in Milan.
Team news: Liverpool look to have a completely clean bill of health here.
Liverpool Predicted Lineup:
Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson, Mac Allister, Szoboszlai, Gravenberch, Dias, Nunez & Salah.
AC Milan vs Liverpool Prediction
This should be a fantastic contest to kick off the respective UCL campaigns of both AC Milan and Liverpool this season and the San Siro should be rocking. Milan are always a tough nut to crack at home, but they are still finding their feet under new manager Paolo Fonseca. Liverpool will latch on to that instability and they should manage to pick up an important win on their travels here.
Prediction: Liverpool to win the match – 19/20 (-105) – Rhino Bet.
