AC Milan Team News
In Serie A, Milan has very good results but in the Champions League that isn’t the case. After last week’s defeat at Stamford Bridge (0-3), Milan is in a very complicated situation for qualification to the knockout phase. If they lose to Chelsea again, and Salzburg win all three points against Dinamo, Milan will be in a very tough situation.
They must give everything and try to win some points from this game against the English team. On Saturday Milan beat fierce rival Juventus at San Siro 2-0 and they showed that defeat in London doesn’t affect the team that much. That win can have a positive impact on players before the game against Chelsea.
The Blues prove that they are too strong for the Italian team and that there is an obvious difference in quality between those teams. Major Milan’s strength is San Siro. Since January they suffered only one defeat there and failed to score in only two games.
Chelsea Team News
Since Graham Potter took charge Chelsea is better and better with every game. They beat Milan last week at home and a couple of days later they produce another great performance with a 3-0 win over the Wolves.
Potter woke up Mason Mount. The English midfielder has two assists against the Wolves and that was his first goal contribution this season. Potter has made some changes to the team and rested some players on Saturday, especially wing-backs.
This game at San Siro will also be very important for Chelsea because the European champion from 2021, started a new season in the Champions League with only one point from the first two games before they beat Milan last week. If they lose today they will be in a tough situation, too.
Since Potter come in, Chelsea scored at least a goal in every game and keep a clean sheet in the last two.
H2H
Chelsea won last week’s game at Stamford Bridge 3-0 with a very impressive display where AC Milan barely had a shot on goal.
Team News and Injuries
AC Milan: Mike Maignan, Alessandro Florenzi, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Junior Messias, Simon Kjaer, Davide Calabria, and Alexis Saelemaekers are all injured.
Chelsea: Wesley Fofana is injured and N’Golo Kante is questionable.
AC Milan vs. Chelsea Prediction
Once again Chelsea is a big favourite against the Italian champion. The difference in quality is on Chelsea’s side and they are once again closer to winning all three points. But, this time we expect a much better display from Milan. They are a much better team when they play at home and the stake in this game is huge for them.
Chelsea can score a goal but at the same time they have defensive problems with Fofana’s injury and Milan must exploit that.
As we said, we expect a much better Milan this week and a more equal game.
