• Competition: Champions League
• Date: 17.09.2024 
• Kickoff: 20:00 UK / 21:00 CEST
• Venue: San Siro (Milan)

For the first time, the Champions League will be played in a new format, without groups, as a specific league competition in which each team will have different rivals. It is expected that because of this, the best club competition in Europe will gain even more popularity and interest. The first round already brings us real derby specials, and one of them is Milan vs Liverpool.

These two teams were actors in the unforgettable final in Istanbul in 2005 and after that they played two more group stage matches in this competition during 2021 and Liverpool won both times. Milan has had a bad start this season in Serie A, while Liverpool have won all of their Premier League matches and are the only club with such a record next to Manchester City.

AC Milan vs Liverpool pick:Liverpool TO WIN AND COVER AH -1

Milan's defense, which has undergone significant changes compared to the previous season, is facing a lot of problems at the start of Serie A. They have conceded 6 goals in the 3 matches played so far. It is the exact opposite of Liverpool who played very safe in the first 3 rounds of the Premier League and took all the points with 7 goals scored and 0 goals conceded. In the meantime, these teams will play one more match in national competitions before this meeting. Milan is a good team at home, but the individual quality is on Liverpool's side and we expect a win with at least 1 goal difference.
