All or nothing for AC Milan in this edition of the UEFA Champions League. The Rossoneri team is positioned in an important way in their field to face Mbappe's PSG, who is a slight favorite in this match. Milan will have to trust in its mystique and its people to face a match after certain few negative results in the previous rounds. The Italian team is looking for an extra life in the competition that it has won 7 times.

 

Milan comes into this match with a very negative dynamic. The Italians have not won for exactly a month, since October 7, when they beat Genoa away on matchday eight of Serie A. They have only managed to draw one of the last four games they have played, losing the remaining three. In the Champions League, they have 2 points and no goals scored.

In the case of PSG, things come from less to more. Kylian Mbappe's team and company have shown obvious improvement this season. The French player's team is heading for qualification this season, but a defeat can also complicate things for them because the other two rivals are not an easy nut to crack. A great match is expected this afternoon at San Siro with two big clubs.

 

The AC Milan vs PSG lineup

For this match, coach Stefano Pioli did not risk some injured players such as Theo Hernandez and Christian Pulisic, since he needs them whole for this game. The match also marks the return of former Milan player Donnarumma to the San Siro. The home team will take the field with: Maignan, Theo Hernández, Tomori, Thiaw, Calabria, Reijnders, Loftus-Cheek, Musah, Leão, Giroud and Pulisic. Milan and PSG have met only six times to date. The Italians have won 50% of the time.
