While in the domestic league, AC Milan have recently improved their position considerably and climbed into the leading group, the Rossoneri are frankly failing in the Champions League. Liverpool and Bayer are now at a different level, and Paulo Fonseca’s team failed to pick up a single point in the matches with these opponents.
Brugge this season is not the strongest team even in the Belgian championship – the guests are losing to the leading Genk by seven points. Unsatisfactory “black and blue” started their way in the Champions League, defeating Borussia Dortmund on their field in the opening round with a score of 0:3.
The difference in class between the opponents in this match is too great. Indicative was the performance of the guests in a home game with Borussia Dortmund, which simply destroyed Brugge at the expense of speedy wings. Christian Pulisic and Raphael Leao are quite capable of doing exactly the same.
