Liverpool were Champions League winners three seasons ago, although they’ve become something of a forgotten team when it comes to Europe and England. The Reds didn’t do a great deal of recruitment over the summer and it’s a tall order for Jurgen Klopp’s side to repeat their European Cup triumph of three seasons ago.
While Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane have been a regular source of goals for the Merseyside outfit, there continues to be a lack of midfield dynamism and it’s noticeable that Trent Alexander-Arnold is being utilised in an advanced position for both club and country.
Milan might not necessarily be overawed by the prospect of clashing with Liverpool at Anfield, with the Rossoneri in good condition under Stefano Pioli and this famous Italian club finished second in the overall standings behind Inter last season.
We’re going to back Over 2.5 Goals in this clash, with Milan having scored four goals in their previous game against Cagliari. It will be interesting to see how Olivier Giroud enjoys a return to England after recently bagging a brace for his new club and Brahim Diaz is another exciting player who can help the visitors get on the scoresheet.
BETTING VERDICT
