LIVERPOOL vs AC MILAN Betting Predictions

Six-time UEFA Champions League winners Liverpool are all set as they prepare to take on AC Milan in Group B on Wednesday night.

The Reds have been regulars in the competition in recent years but Milan are making a comeback, having missed out on qualification since 2014.

Between them, the two sides have won the competition 13 times and have faced each other in two finals, most memorably in Istanbul in 2005, when Liverpool came from 3-0 down to win on penalties.

AC Milan mustered revenge two years later with a 2-1 victory in the 2007 final, which represents the most recent meeting between two sides with 13 European titles between them.

The 2021-22 season marks AC Milan’s return to the promised land of the Champions League after a painful eight-year absence from the top table.

What time does Liverpool vs AC Milan start?
