Prediction: 2-0
Feyenoord
A place in the Champions League last 16 will be at place when Milan welcome Feyenoord to their Stadio San Siro on Tuesday evening. The Rossoneri failed to impress in the De Kuip defeat, but they are still seen as hot favourites to beat Feyenoord at home ground. Both Christian Pulisic and Rafael Leao return to the starting XI after coming off the bench in a 1-0 win over Verona, while defender Fikayo Tomori is back from suspension.
The likes of Emerson Royal, Alessandro Florenzi, and Ruben Loftus-Cheek miss out with injuries. De Trots van Zuid, on the other hand, failed to turn their dominance into goals against NAC Breda (0-0) and with Milan being a real force to be reckoned with at home, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Sergio Conceicao’s troops. All Bijlow, Lotomba, Nadje, Nieuwkoop, Stengs, and Trauner are out of contention with injuries for the away team.
Highlighted Player (Christian Pulisic):
Christian Pulisic is an American professional footballer who plays in the English Premier League with Chelsea. Born in Pennsylvania on the 18th of September, 1998, the talented midfielder joined Brackley Town's youth setup in 2005. He then went on to feature for Michigan Rush and PA classics before being recruited by Bundesliga outfit Borrusia Dortmund in February 2015.
Impressed with the rate of his progression at their academy, BVB integrated the teenager into their first team over the winter break. On the 30th of January, 2015, Pulisic made his professional debut at the age of 17, coming on as a substitute in Dortmund's 2-0 home win against Ingolstadt in the league. He then went on to score his first professional goal three months later in a 3-0 league win over Hamburger SV. Before joining English club Chelsea in 2018, Pulisic played a total of 4 seasons at Dortmund, three of which were as a full-time player and the last one on loan from the Blues.
The 21-year-old is now back at Chelsea for the 19/20 season and is currently on a contract that expires in 2024. Pulisic's club career honors include winning the 16/17 DFB Pokal with Dortmund. Additionally, Pulisic initially represented the USA at the under-15 and under-17 level before getting called up to the senior squad.
