8th March 2023 – 21:00, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, London
Tottenham Hotspur and Milan will face each other in the Champions League eighth finals on Wednesday evening. The hosts chase the opponent’s first-leg advantage while the away side looks forward to progressing to the next round.
Tottenham Hotspur Preview & Team News
Tottenham Hotspur will want a better result here after the 1-0 Premier League defeat last time out to Wolverhampton Wanderers. It was the Spurs’ second straight defeat and not a good introduction to this clash. Under three goals per match were seen in 5 of the last six meetings where Tottenham Hotspur has been involved. Regarding the goal distribution in that period, their opponents scored an aggregate of 7 while Tottenham Hotspur managed a sum of 5. They are one goal behind in this tie and will try to neutralize that in front of their fans. Yves Bissouma (Ankle Fracture), Hugo Lloris (Knee Injury), Ryan Sessegnon (Hamstring Injury), and Rodrigo Bentancur (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) will be missing for Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte.
Milan Preview & Team News
Since being beaten in their last game against Fiorentina in Serie A action, Milan and their traveling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one. That loss broke the Rossoneri’s four-game winning streak. A run of dependable showings by the Milan defense has seen their ‘goals against’ tally standing at three from their last six outings in total. During the same time, their forwards scored 6. We will just have to see if that trend will be sustained into this next match. Out of a mainly available squad, there is only one fitness problem for the Milan boss Stefano Pioli to be concerned about. Brahim Díaz (Knee Injury) won’t be playing here.
Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction
Neither team has been convincing lately, and it is going to be a pretty close game. We won’t be surprised if it ends in a draw.
Goals Market Prediction
Tottenham’s last five matches stayed under a 2.5 margin, the same as five of Milan’s previous six. We don’t expect many goals here, and the crowd shouldn’t see more than two in total.
