There will be fireworks when Real Madrid and AC Milan face each other at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu in the Champions League derby. Los Blancos were not in action at the weekend as their game against Valencia was postponed due to flooding. As a result, tired legs should not prove to be a problem for Carlo Ancelotti’s troops on Tuesday evening. The Italian tactician has a full squad to choose from, except for David Alaba, Dani Carvajal, and Rodrygo, who remain on the treatment table. Fit-again defender Antonio Rudiger should return to the starting XI.
The Rossoneri, on the other hand, desperately needed a win against Club Brugge in their last Champions League game and they managed to get one. Paulo Fonseca’s men defeated Monza in the Serie A round 11 as well, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry in Madrid. Kylian Mbappe and Co. are a real force to be reckoned with at home and we predict that the reigning champions are going to prove their worth on the field. As for the away team, Rafael Leao is pushing for a start, while all Bennacer, Florenzi, Gabbia, and Jovic remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Score Prediction: Real Madrid 2-0 Ac Milan
