Command Analysis
AC Milan
ItalyCurrent form
Milan made a major overhaul in the summer in the hope of fighting for the Serie A Scudetto, and Paulo Fonseca team is also clearly hoping to make it to the Champions League playoffs. However, from the very start, things didn't go as planned, and the coach job was immediately in jeopardy.
In the first round of the Champions League, Milan met with Liverpool and was not the favorite in this confrontation. Despite the fact that the Rossoneri managed to score a quick goal, they were unable to put up much resistance to the Reds - Liverpool was objectively stronger in this match and easily took a 3:1 victory over San Siro. In the away match against Bayer, they also failed to get any points - https://www.acmilan.com/>Milan resisted for a long time, but conceded and lost 0:1, ending up in 32nd place in the table.
Milan have already had a few disappointing games in Serie A, but they did win 2-1 in the derby against Inter, and it was thanks to this success that Paulo Fonseca kept his job. A few days ago, the Rossoneri beat Udinese 1-0 at home, having played most of the match with ten men. These three points helped Milan climb to fourth place in the table, and there is a gap of five points from the leaders Napoli.
Disqualifications and injuries
Calabria, Florenzi, Bennacer, Sportiello and Abraham are injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- Milan have won three of their last four home matches
- Milan have scored in all five home games this season

Club Brugge
BelgiumCurrent form
Brugge had a quality finish to the championship last season and managed to snatch the championship title from their competitors, earning a direct ticket to the Champions League. With the current selection of players, the "black and blues" can hardly count on the top eight, but they are quite capable of fighting for a place in the top 24, which they have already managed to prove in the first matches.
Nicky Heyen team started extremely poorly, failing to put up any resistance at home to Borussia Dortmund. The 0:3 defeat did not fully reflect the course of the match, but https://www.clubbrugge.be/>Brugge was objectively weaker that evening. However, they managed to rehabilitate themselves in the second round - the "black and blues" beat Austria Sturm 1:0 away, managing to rise to 21st place in the table.
In the Belgian championship, Brugge does not look its best at the start. In 11 rounds, it managed to get only five victories and such results do not allow it to rise above fourth place. The gap from the leader Genk is already seven points, and the handicap is gradually becoming critical. Having beaten Westerlo 2:1 in the last round, Brugge broke a series of three matches without a win in the championship.
Disqualifications and injuries
Meyer, Nilsson and Skov Olsen are injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- Brugge have not lost in their last four matches – two wins and two draws
- Brugge have scored in their last five matches
- Club Brugge have only managed to score against Milan in one of their last four matches
Estimated line-up : Mignolet – Seys, Ordonez, Mechele, de Cuyper – Onedika – Talbi, Jashari, Vanaken, Tzolis – Jutgla.

Milan have not yet reached their optimal form and have problems in most matches, but their character and skill are enough to stay in the top four in the championship. In the Champions League, the situation is already close to critical - the Rossoneri do not have a single point after two rounds. It is obvious that the hosts' motivation will be off the charts today and it is unlikely that Brugge has anything to count on at San Siro. Milan, in addition to motivation, also has a significant advantage in class.
We think that the guests have no chance. Forecast - Asian handicap (-1) for Milan . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.75
Bet on total
Milan is traditionally aggressive in attack at home, today the hosts need only a win and the favorite will certainly go forward with great force from the first minutes. The Rossoneri score regularly on their home field and it is unlikely that Brugge has a chance to remain without conceding goals. At the same time, the Black and Blues are also very aggressive in attack and have a high implementation rate, the match will certainly be productive.
Bet - total over 2.5 goals. This bet is offered with odds of 1.69
Bet on the difference in the score
Milan is undoubtedly the favorite of the match and will play only to win - so far the Rossoneri do not have a single point. The hosts are quite capable of getting three points, they have a solid advantage in experience and class, but it is unlikely that the Rossoneri will be satisfied with a minimal advantage, Brugge is vulnerable in defense and Milan is capable of winning confidently in a confrontation with such an opponent.
The bet is Milan to win by two goals. This bet is offered for 4.40
