It's time for the Champions League, for the European tournaments and the first match that I will pay attention to is the one between Milan and Liverpool - two giants in European football, without a doubt. At the helm of both teams are managers who started their work in the summer. It may be normal, from this point of view, to have some shake-ups.
Milan started worse under Paulo Fonseca, while Liverpool started strong under Arne Slot. My explanation is that Liverpool has a well-established squad. I expect that this will play a role in this match as well, because these competitors have a lot of experience together on the field, including against opponents like Milan. On the other hand, we should note the area where Rafael Leao will play against Trent Alexander-Arnold. Many things can be decided from there and if Liverpool holds up, they may succeed.
The tactical culture of Italian teams has brought them great success in Europe in recent seasons. In my opinion, Milan will want to slow down the game to eliminate Liverpool's ability to use lightning-fast transitions through the middle of the field, which is a huge weapon for the squad. Nottingham Forest dealt with this appropriately and achieved success, so I believe Milan will be looking for something similar.
I think this will be a match with a late goal that could decide the game. It seems to me that there could be more goals, but I have a feeling of success for Liverpool, mainly because of the squad's greater experience.This text is an AI-assisted translation in English.

Next up is a chance for revenge against Milan in the Champions League.
The guests are the better team
Certainly the English team will enter this duel as the favorite, considering how well they generally perform in such European visits in recent years. Not to mention that simply the quality in the squads is completely different and incomparable. The defeat against Forest is one that can easily and quickly be swallowed, because it was quite harsh. A typical match after the break for national teams. Milan, on the other hand, won for the first time a few days ago, but remains doubtful in my perspective.
Bet on Liverpool to win with over 1.5 goals
I wouldn't be surprised if there are more goals scored.
