ℹ️ Team News: AC Milan

Marco Sportiello (muscular problems), Simon Kjaer (Muscle fatigue), Noah Okafor (Hamstring muscle injury), Marco Pellegrino (Ankle sprain), Ismaël Bennacer (Knee surgery), Mattia Caldara (Ankle surgery) and Pierre Kalulu (Patellar tendon problems) will not be taking part for AC Milan boss Stefano Pioli.

It seems likely that i Rossoneri should opt for a 4-3-3 system this time, beginning the first half with Mike Maignan, Davide Calabria, Malick Thiaw, Fikayo Tomori, Theo Hernandez, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Rade Krunic, Tijani Reijnders, Samuel Chukwueze, Olivier Giroud and Christian Pulisic.

📋 Team News: Borussia Dortmund

Borussia Dortmund boss Edin Terzić has to currently contend with reduced team options. Julien Duranville (Muscle injury), Niklas Süle (Ill) and Felix Nmecha (Hip problems) miss out here.

From our viewpoint, Dortmund might utilise a 4-2-3-1 formation, giving starts to Gregor Kobel, Julian Ryerson, Mats Hummels, Nico Schlotterbeck, Ramy Bensebaini, Emre Can, Marcel Sabitzer, Marco Reus, Julian Brandt, Donyell Malen and Niclas Fuellkrug.

🧠 Prediction

In our opinion, Borussia Dortmund could well find it tough to register a score against this AC Milan team who we think should end up scoring and possibly keep a clean sheet as well.

We’re therefore tipping a very even match with a 1-0 winning margin for AC Milan when the referee blows for full-time.

Should be an interesting one.
