Lille - AC Milan   Prediction, Picks and Tips  


 
  
What do names like Andrea Pirlo, Kaka, Filippo Inzaghi, Clarence Seedorf or Gennaro Gattuso sound like? They are reminiscent of the golden era of AC Milan around 15 years ago. Back then, the Italians won the Champions League, among other things, and after a long dry spell they are currently on the way up again.

History also repeats itself when looking at the upcoming opponent in the Europa League. Even then, Milan faced Lille OSC in the group stage of the premier class. This time there are two duels against the French in the Euro League.

After losing in the first leg at home, the Serie A leader is classified as an outsider by the best bookmakers. Between Lille and AC Milan, the tip on the home win has lower odds than the away win. Superstar Zlatan Ibrahimovic's injury at the weekend plays a role and makes a home win for the Great Danes even more likely. The game starts on Thursday evening shortly before 17:55 p.m.

 
 
 

 
 
  
 
If you look at the national tables in Europe, it becomes clear that the encounter on Thursday evening in Lille is a real top game. Not only the guests are at the top of the table in Italy, but Lille have also had a strong playing time so far. The Great Danes are only just behind the reigning champions PSG in second place in Ligue 1.
 
After the defeat in Brest, some feared a turnaround for the worse. But Lille responded with a convincing 4-0 home win against FC Lorient at the weekend.

The result was completely deserved in terms of height. The home side fired over 30 shots on goal at the opposing body and the offensive power of coach Christophe Galtier's team was immense. Double goal scorer Yusuf Yazici and midfield engine Luiz Araujo stood out from the overall strong team.

The French representative gained a lot of self-confidence with the victory and wants to make the entry into the knockout round of the Europa League early on Thursday. Between Lille and AC Milan, a prognosis for the home win is by no means absurd and the most likely outcome in this game.

 
 
 
 
 


 The clear focus of AC Milan this season is on the national Serie A. There serial champions Juventus Turin should finally be beaten again and after eight match days it looks good. Milan leads the tableau with 20 points and four points ahead of the old lady.
 
Coach Stefano Pioli owes this to his Swedish superstar in attack. Zlatan Ibrahimovic was again the match winner in the 3-1 away win in Naples this weekend. He scored a brace and put his team on the road to victory.

The injury to the oldie in the final phase was all the more bitter. He had to leave the field with slight muscle problems and will most certainly not be used on Thursday. The Europa League does not have the highest priority, although of course the entry into the intermediate round should still succeed.

After two successes at the beginning and the bankruptcy against Lille in the first leg, the starting position for the Italians is still quite comfortable and it is quite possible that coach Pioli will spare other players on Thursday evening. As a result, a prognosis for the home win between Lille and AC Milan is of course further supported.
