Milan to Win
There is a 70% chance for Milan to win this game according to the stats. In detail, the Rossoneri won seven of their last ten games. In the Champions League, Salzburg are winless in their previous two away games.
Under 3 Goals
All of Salzburg’s five games in this season’s Champions League Group E games ended with three or fewer goals. Likewise, Milan’s three of five fixtures in the UCL produced under three goals which the stats are showing a 65% possibility.
Score During the Match 1-1
Four of Salzburg’s five games in the UCL this term saw the score 1-1. Moreover, the previous game between Milan and Salzburg also ended with the same scoreline.
Milan
This is a clutch match for both teams with Milan having a slight advantage. To explain, the Rossoneri have seven points and are in second place one point above Salzburg. Hence, a win for Milan would secure a knockout phase spot. With a draw, Milan have to wait for the other match’s result between Dinamo Zagreb and Chelsea.
The reigning Serie A champions lost twice to Chelsea in a week in the third and fourth round. However, Stefano Pioli’s men bounced back quickly with a very commanding win away to Dinamo Zagreb by 4-0. Surely, Pioli hopes his team can maintain that form on Wednesday.
Salzburg
Salzburg need to win this game to stay in the Champions League otherwise Dinamo Zagreb must lose to Chelsea for the Austrians to play in the Europa League. The Red Bulls went undefeated in their first four games drawing three and winning one.
However, a defeat n matchday five to Chelsea saw them drop to the third position. Not much can be expected from Salzburg in their away games in Europe as they drew both of their trips in Group E. Coach Matthias Jaissle has a tough task against a very strong side and his first aim will be to keep a clean sheet which his team failed to do in their last two trips in the UCL.
Milan are obviously the firm favorites to win this game. The Rossoneri showed some improvements in recent games with a fine run in the Serie A and an impeccable display in Zagreb. In conclusion, we will back Milan to win this one.
Playing at the Meazza, Milan scored an average of 2.00 goals per game. In the Champions League, the Rossoneri are averaging just under two goals as well. With odds of 1.60 at 1XBet, we will back Milan to score over 1.5 goals.
At 22 years of age, Sandro Tonali is one of the most exciting young midfielders in Italian football. Tonali made his debut for the Italy national team in 2019 and has appeared 11 times ever since for Roberto Mancini’s team. The Milan midfielder is often likened to Andrea Pirlo in terms of his playing style.
Dest, Calabria, Saelemaekers, Maignan, Florenzi, and Ibrahimovic are injured and not fit to play for Milan.
Solet is questionable for Salzburg while Koita, Capaldo, Fernando, and Tijani are all injured.
