AC Milan vs Club Brugge Prediction: Belgians won’t break resilient Rossoneri

AC Milan’s recent defensive record at San Siro means they will be a tough nut to crack when they host Club Brugge on Tuesday night in the Champions League (kick-off 17:45). Winning to nil in three of their last four games at San Siro, the Rossoneri are making their home ground a tough place to go to these days.

It’s expected to be a daunting challenge for the Belgian champions, who have a poor record in the Champions League with just one win in their last seven games in Europe’s elite competition. Read below for my AC Milan vs Club Brugge prediction alongside all the latest team news and match odds.

Team News

Starting with the hosts, Marco Sportiello (hand), Ismael Bennacer (ankle), Alessandro Florenzi (ACL) and Davide Calabria (calf) are all set to miss out on Tuesday’s game.

France international Theo Hernandez missed the win over Udinese at the weekend due to a suspension but will be available for this clash at San Siro.

Football Odds

As for the visitors, Andreas Skov Olsen is out until early November with a muscle injury, while fellow forward Gustaf Nilsson has returned to training after a calf issue and could feature.

Bjorn Meijer faces a race against time to be fit for Tuesday as the defender continues to recover from a knee injury.

AC Milan are the 4/9 favourites to claim the valuable three points in their hopes of reaching the knockout stages, while Club Brugge are 11/2 to cause an upset and win at San Siro.

A draw on the night is available at 100/30, while under 2.5 total goals in what could be a cagey game is currently 6/5.

To Win to Nil - AC Milan @ 6/4

Scoring just two goals in their last four away games in the Champions League, Club Brugge have struggled on their travels in this competition.

The Belgian giants have won just one of their last seven games in the Champions League and it’s hard to see them coming away from Italy with anything to show for their efforts.

Milan have looked strong at the back on home soil and can add another clean sheet to their collection on Tuesday night.

Anytime Goalscorer - Christian Pulisic (MIL) @ 7/4

USA international Christian Pulisic has enjoyed an impressive start to the season, scoring five Serie A goals already.

The former Chelsea forward scored in four consecutive league games for the Rossoneri before his goalscoring run came to an end in their 1-0 win over Udinese last time out.

He will be eager to get back among the goals and, having scored in Milan’s 3-1 defeat to Liverpool, the American can add another Champions League goal to his tally in this match.
