Bayer Leverkusen vs AC Milan Prediction & Betting Tips (1 October)

Bayer Leverkusen rolled over Feyenoord on the first day, winning without conceding an away goal 0-4. A result which allows Xabi Alonso's men to be in the top 3 of this league phase. A place to defend and starting this evening for the reception of the 7 times winner of the Champions League. Is there any need to remind how monstrous this Leverkusen team was last season by being undefeated all season? Finally, until a certain Europa League final, lost with a nasty score of 3-0 against Atalanta Bergamo. It was clearly the final of happiness and consecration for the Germans who had in mind to finish in style with a treble with the championship won and the German Cup. To start this Bundesliga year, Wirtz and his partners only lost one match, against RB Leipzig 2-3 which at the same time broke their unbeaten streak at the national level. For the rest, it's 3 victories, 9 points and a 2nd spot behind Bayern Munich who intend to recover their place on the throne of Germany.

As chance does its job well, last weekend, it was a shock with Bayern on the program. Opposite, while we had found AC Milan conquering in recent years, here they are again in a rather precarious sporting situation stimulated by mixed results. The Rossoneri started their SA campaign with three unsuccessful matches including two draws against Torino at home 2-2 and at Lazio 2-2. There was even a defeat against promoted Parma 2-1. However, before hosting Lecce last weekend to follow, the 7 times winner of the Big Ears Cup remained on two victories in the elite against the promoted Venezia 4-0 and in the Madonnina derby against the champion in title, Inter Millan 1-2 thanks to a late winning goal from Gabbia. For their start in Champions, the Milanese collapsed at home against the Liverpool Reds, despite Pulisic opening the scoring in the 3rd minute 1-3.

A priori, the entire German squad will be extra for this partition since no player remains injured or suspended. Clearly, the cracks of last season which are Wirtz (already 4 goals this season + double against Feyenoord) and Boniface (3 goals in the Bundesliga) will be on the scoresheet or even in the eleven. Also present is Grimaldo, scorer against Feyenoord. Former Rennes player Martin Terrier, starter during J1, could once again apply for a place in the major eleven this evening.

Among the Italians, it's a little less festive at Colette since players are taking care of the image Bennacer, Thiaw, full-back Florenzi (rotation) and Sportiello (replacement goalkeeper). Offensively, Paulo Fonseca's men still have pretty crazy potential with notably the European champion with La Roja this summer, Morata (ex-Atlético), the catalyst winger Leao (1 goal, 2 assists in SA) without forget the American international, Pulisic (scorer against Liverpool). We don't forget to mention it, but the former Chelsea player, Ruben Loftus-Cheek has his share of importance in the offensive animation and alone maintains the balance between the offensive and defensive phases.
