AC Milan v Liverpool Betting Preview  

AC Milan have slight hope to reach the knockout stage. After three defeats in their first three games and a disappointing draw at home against FC Porto, the Rossoneri upset Atletico Madrid at the Wanda Metropolitano last time out. To qualify now, Stefano Pioli's team will need to beat Liverpool and hope that Porto and Atletico draw in the other match of the group. It doesn't hurt to try, especially because Liverpool have already secured the first place and can also afford a misstep in the last matchday of the Champions League. The Rossoneri, however, are not in astonishing form as they were at the beginning of the season. Before the league victories against Genoa and Salernitana (by far the least equipped teams in Serie A), they suffered back to back defeats against Fiorentina (4-3 in Florence) and Sassuolo (1-3 at home). They now top the Serie A table with just one point of margin over Inter Milan.

Liverpool are cruising at full speed both domestically and in Europe.The Reds have won all the games played in the Champions League this year scoring 15 goals in 5 matches, an average of 3 goals per game. Klopp's men also took the lead in the Premier League by taking advantage of Chelsea's slip against West Ham at the weekend, after beating Wolves (0-1 at Molineaux) thanks to Divock Origi's last gasp goal. In their last 5 games, Liverpool have conceded only once. One of the few teams to have created problems for Liverpool was AC Milan: in the Anfield match, the Rossoneri took the lead by 2 goals in the first half despite eing dominated by Liverpool. In the end, the Reds managed to come from behind and win with the result of 3-2.

The Rossoneri are favorites to win this clash, as AC Milan to win is priced at 21/10 with STS. The draw is backable at 63/20 with the same bookmaker while Liverpool are 51/20 to win with Unibet.

Team News & Probable Line-Ups

AC Milan (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Kalulu, Tomori, Romagnoli, Hernandez; Kessie, Tonali; Saelemaekers, Diaz, Krunic; Ibrahimovic

Zlatan Ibrahimovic returns to the center of the attack. The Swede is the only striker available given the unavailability of Pietro Pellegri, Rafael Leao, Ante Rebic and Olivier Giroud. Behind Ibrahimovic the likes of Alexis Saelemaekers, Brahim Diaz and Rade Krunic will feature from the off while Junior Messias and Daniel Maldini could play in the second half if needed. The injury list also includes Davide Calabria, Simon Kjaer and Samu Castillejo. In midfield, Sandro Tonali will retain his starting berth alongside Frank Kessie. In defense, Leandro Romagnoli will be Fikayo Tomori's partner in the center, while Pierre Kaluluis expected to get the nod over Alessandro Florenzi for the right-back berth. Theo Hernandez is not 100% fit (flu).

Liverpool (4-3-3): Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Gomez, Tsimikas; Henderson, Thiago Alcantara, Keita; Minamino, Origi, Manè

Jurgen Klopp is expected to make wholesale changes to his starting XI. Up front Sadio Manè will be the only "survivor" of the usual 'tridente' (which generally includes Mo Salah and one between Roberto Firmino and Diogo Jota). Divock Origi and Takumi Minamino will complete the front trio. In midfield, Naby Keita is favourite over James Milner, Fabinho and Curtis Jones for a spot with Henderson and Thiago Alcantara (who may also be rested). In defense, only Alexander-Arnold should retain his starting berth. The other three defenders should be Kostas Tsimikas (on the left) and center-backs Joel Matip and Joe Gomez..

Our AC Milan v Liverpool Predictions    

AC Milan have many regular players sidelined. Liverpool, on the other hand, do not have key absences but could play with a much changed line-up since they have already secured qualification as first placed team. If it is true that motivations matter more than anything in modern football, then AC Milan should be able to win the match and hope for a draw between Porto and Atletico. We expect both teams to score at least one goal, so the exact result could be a 2-1 Milan win. Watch out for Messias: the Brazilian has already scored the decider at the Wanda Metropolitano a few weeks ago and could be the match winner once again.
