Milan has slowed down this season. But in particular, their serious problems began in the first half of January, as they recorded only one victory, two draws, and five defeats in eight games. The result was terrible, so the team dropped to fifth place in the Serie A table.
However, they performed well in the Champions League group stage, finishing second in the quartet with Chelsea, Salzburg, and Dinamo Zagreb. They have recorded ten points in six rounds.
Tottenham
Tottenham is relatively stable during the season, which does not surprise anyone. Thus, in the EPL standings, the Spurs are fifth in the Europa League competition. They are just a little behind the top 4, which cannot fail to please their fans. The latest incident happened just this weekend. Before that, they had a streak of three wins in a row and even beat Manchester City (1:0) sensationally. However, the London side lost to Leicester 1:4.
In the Champions League group, Tottenham showed great soccer and managed to win it. Of course, we can't call our opponents, Eintracht, Sporting, and Marseille, very strong, but it does not deny the merits of the team that earned 11 points in six rounds.
Expert Betting Tips
In the upcoming meeting of the round of 16 of the Champions League, we give preference to Tottenham. The fact is that lately, they look trivially better than Milan. The Rossoneri hadn't been able to win for a month (in eight games in a row) before their last encounter with Torino. There is something broken in their mechanism, and it is unnecessary to conclude the game with Torino, which was relatively equal. The Spurs had a streak of three consecutive dry victories before meeting with Leicester, during which they also beat Manchester City.
If the Citizens could overcome Conte's team, indeed, they could cope with the Milanese, or they won't lose to them. They are better prepared now. As an insurance bet, we suggest the guests not to lose and total under.
