In the match of the third round of the Champions League group stage, Chelsea and Milan players will come face to face. On whose side will the victory be in this meeting? Our sports portal gives a forecast for this meeting.
Chelsea
Chelsea are not doing their best in the Champions League yet. Even under Thomas Tuchel, the Blues lost away to Dinamo Zagreb with a score of 0:1. Under Graham Potter, they drew with RB Salzburg - 1:1. It is worth noting that in their quartet, "pensioners" are on the last line, having 1 point in their assets. Even RB Salzburg has more than 2 points in the current conditions. The Blues started October by defeating Crystal Palace 2-1.
Milan
The players of Milan, unlike the opponent, were able to win. So far, the team can only be blamed for the loss of points in Salzburg – 1:1. In the second round, the Rossoneri confidently defeated Dinamo Zagreb on their own field, which allowed them to break into first place in the standings. Before the pause for the national teams' games, the Red-Blacks were able to beat Sampdoria with a score of 2:1, and also lost to Napoli (1:2). The first days of October were crowned with a 6:1 victory over Empoli for Azzurri.
Statistics and figures:
- Chelsea - the favorite of the meeting;Chelsea has 2 wins in 5 matches;
- Milan have won three times in 5 meetings;
- The last face-to-face meeting of the rivals ended with a score of 3:1 in favor of Chelsea.
- Forecast
I believe that in this meeting Chelsea will be able to overcome their opponent and score the first three points of the tournament season.
Milan will not be able to score tournament points in London as part of the LCH tour.
