Milan vs Tottenham: Prediction and Preview | The Analyst (The Analyst)

AC Milan and Tottenham Hotspur meet at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on Tuesday evening in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League round of 16 tie.

The winger is at his best when finding pockets of space to run into and attack, but under Antonio Conte, Spurs have become well known for forming a low block and making it hard for opponents to find any space in behind their full backs. However, with such a small difference between each side’s win forecast, it looks like one of the hardest UCL last 16 ties to call. The 29-year-old also needs one more goal to reach 20 in all competitions in 2022-23, meaning it would be the ninth successive season that the legendary Spurs player has achieved this feat. That victory prevented Stefano Pioli’s team from losing five in a row within a single season for the first time since 1929-30 after four previous defeats against Internazionale (Super Cup and Serie A), Lazio and Sassuolo. On the last three occasions that he’s taken a team away to play at the San Siro versus the Rossoneri, they’ve won and kept a clean sheet (all in Serie A). Kane broke the record with his 267th Spurs goal in the 1-0 win over Man City earlier this month, surpassing Jimmy Greaves. It’s hard to look past Spurs’ new all-time record competitive goalscorer Harry Kane as their key man in this UCL match on Tuesday. However, a disastrous run of form in 2023 has seen them head into this UCL tie with doubts about their quality. Tottenham kept out the likes of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Robinho, Alexandre Pato and Clarence Seedorf that day, thanks to some smart saves from Heurelho Gomes and a dramatic goal-line clearance from William Gallas. Spurs’ 0-0 draw with AC Milan at White Hart Lane in March 2011 might not have seen any goals, but it was a typical action-packed night of Champions League action. Spurs are unbeaten in all four of their previous head-to-heads against Milan, with two wins and two draws – both over two-legged European ties. Spurs did it again in the 2010-11 Champions League.

He debuted the new look against Inter Milan in a 1-0 defeat in the Derby della Madonnina. Stefano Pioli's boys also lost against Torino in the Coppa Italia's round of 16 and against Inter Milan the Supercoppa Italiana's final in Riyadh.

However, with some advantage in the midfield and forward positions, the visitors look as slight favorites to win this match. This turned out to be a forgettable afternoon for the London club as they failed to build a winning streak after a previous 1-0 victory over Manchester City. The Milan boss will be motivated to bring back the Champions League silverware to the Rossoneri, who last won it in 2007 in a team that featured Kaka, Filippo Inzaghi, Clarence Seedorf, Paolo Maldini, and Andrea Pirlo. Tuesday’s meeting with Tottenham will represent the club’s first Champions League knockout round tie since their 5-1 aggregate loss to Atletico Madrid way back in the 2013-14 season. They currently sit fifth in the Serie A table, tied at 41 points with Atalanta and Roma, three points behind Inter, and 18 points behind leaders Napoli. The Tottenham Hotspurs will be quickly looking for good results after a mixed run of outcomes in the English Premier League.

Two clubs desperate to find their best form meet in Europe's top competition as AC Milan host Tottenham in the first leg of their Champions League Round of ...

Tottenham are missing key midfield pieces, and the AC Milan midfielders are in horrid form. While selecting Kulusevski to score or assist feels more palatable, he's more than twice as likely to assist as he is to score, and the odds double when picking him just to assist a goal. AC Milan's recent downturn can almost directly be linked to a dip in form for their lynchpin midfielder Sandro Tonali. Spurs only saw two of their six Champions League group stage matches go over the 2.5 goal total, but those came against chaotic teams Eintracht Frankfurt and Olympique Marseille. - AC Milan have never beaten Tottenham in their four all-time meetings, all coming in UEFA continental competition. If, however, Tonali has a performance like he did against, say, Sassuolo in late January, where he coughed up the ball repeatedly, Spurs will be a force on the break. Both sides have shipped goals on multiple occasions, then gone out and earned a clean sheet, only to be blasted again, all within the span of a few days or weeks. He has not scored or assisted a goal in his last five matches across all competitions. On both occasions, Tottenham won the first leg by a single goal, and the two sides drew the second leg. AC Milan sat second in the Serie A table at the break in November, while Tottenham stood in fourth in the Premier League. Both sides feature plus odds on the moneyline and are nearly dead even as such. Both teams have seen their domestic chase for a top four spot fall flat in recent weeks, and are in dire need of a boost.

Antonio Conte is back at San Siro to take on AC Milan with his Tottenham side in the Champions League.

— Pape Sarr replaces Bentancur in midfield with Cristian Romero also back following a Premier League ban. Secondly, he'd probably like to have a few more central midfielders. Emerson Royal comes in at right wing-back, with Pedro Porro dropping to the bench after his nightmare weekend debut at Leicester. 1hr 15 mins from kickoff: Here's the Tottenham team, which is pretty much as you'd expect with the personnel available.
